The rate of wastage of an alloy surface subjected to erosion under conditions where high-temperature oxidation can occur can be significantly greater than that arising from erosion alone. This is because the erosion conditions can act to accelerate the oxidation process by causing regular shedding of the otherwise protective oxide scale. It is suggested that an important parameter in determining the rate of erosion-oxidation is the erodent flux, since the time available for oxide growth (or regrowth) in a given area is determined by the interval between successive erodent impacts. Using this simple premise, an approach is suggested by which the rate of erosion-oxidation can be related to the factors that control the alloy oxidation process, and those that describe the erosive environment. The assumptions made are examined, and some of the implications of this approach are discussed.

Fe - 9 to 12%Cr alloys are a material for the thick sections boiler components and steam lines of a power plant. The role Fe - 9 to 12%Cr alloys is becoming more prominent in the development of a new generation of Ultra-Supercritical (USC) Power Plant due to the target operating temperature is reaching 620 °C (893 K), in 100% steam condition as well as pressure in excess of 300 bar (30 × 106 Pa). In such condition, the integrity of Fe - 9 to 12%Cr alloys relies on the oxide scale formed during the time of exposure. However due to the high temperature and water vapor condition, it is a well known fact that, the formation of oxide scale is accelerated thus depleting the structural integrity of the Fe - 9 to 12%Cr alloys over the time. Studies show that not only the formation of protective oxide scale was suppressed but the formation of non-protective oxide scale was accelerated instead. Decades of studies done by various groups around the globe has yet to have consensual on the exact mechanism of this phenomenon. Initial stage oxidation of these alloys plays great roles in hope to understand the formation of oxide scale in water vapor condition at high temperature. This paper reviews previous research works to understand the initial stage oxidation of Fe - 9 to 12%Cr alloys at high temperature in water vapor condition.

AbstractHigh-temperature oxidation behaviour of Mo-40Ti-30Si (at.%) alloy was investigated in the temperature regime of 900-1300∘C in air. Isothermal weight change data recorded up to 100 h of exposure revealed parabolic weight gain kinetics at all the tested temperatures. The protective oxide scale composed with SiO2 (silica) and TiO2 (titania) forming a duplex oxide microstructure consisting of TiO2 particles embedded in the continuous SiO2 matrix. The oxide scale showed parabolic growth kinetics, and the activation energies for the scale growth were found to be 72.2 kJ/mol in 900-1200∘C and 324.9 kJ/mol in 1200-1300∘C. The kinetics of the protective scale growth on the alloy surface was mainly controlled by the growth of the silica film and the inward diffusion of oxygen through the duplex oxide layer.

Oxidation resistant alloys depend on the formation of a continuous layer of protective oxide scale during the oxidation process. The initial stages of oxidation of multi-component alloys can be quite complex, since numerous metal oxides can be formed. For oxidation resistance, the composition is adjusted so that selective oxidation occurs of that element whose oxide affords the most protection. Ideally, the protective oxide scale should be i) structurally perfect, so as to avoid short-circuit diffusion paths, and ii) strongly adherent to the alloy substrate, which minimizes spalling in response to thermal cycling. Small concentrations (∼ 0.1%) of certain reactive elements, such as yttrium, markedly improve the adherence of oxide scales in many alloy systems.

High-temperature oxidation was performed at temperatures from 600 to 750 °C over a period of 24 h and 72 h. It was shown in the study that the oxide scale became more homogeneous and covered the entire surface as the oxidation temperature increased. After oxidation over a period of 24 h, the hardness of the produced layers increased as the oxidation temperature increased (from 892.4 to 1146.6 kgf/mm2). During oxidation in a longer time variant (72 h), layers with a higher hardness were obtained (1260 kgf/mm2). Studies on friction and wear characteristics of titanium were conducted using couples with ceramic balls (Al2O3, ZrO2) and with high-carbon steel (100Cr6) balls. The oxide films produced at a temperature range of 600–750 °C led to a reduction of the wear ratio value, with the lowest one obtained in tests with the 100Cr6 steel balls. Frictional contact of Al2O3 balls with an oxidized titanium disc resulted in a reduction of the wear ratio, but only for the oxide scales produced at 600 °C (24 h, 72 h) and 650 °C (24 h). For the ZrO2 balls, an increase in the wear ratio was observed, especially when interacting with the oxide films obtained after high-temperature oxidation at 650 °C or higher temperatures. The increase in wear intensity after titanium oxidation was also observed for the 100Cr6 steel balls.
