Chromia-forming steels are excellent candidates to resist to high temperature oxidizing atmospheres because they form protective oxide scales. The oxide scale growth mechanisms are studied by exposing AISI 304 stainless steel to high temperature conditions in air, and the analyses were carried out by means of thermogravimetry and in situ X-rays diffraction. The in situ XRD analyses carried out during high temperature AISI 304 steel oxidation in air reveals the accelerated growth of iron-containing oxides such as hematite Fe2O3 and iron-chromite FeCr2O4, when the initial germination of the oxide layer contains the presence of a manganese-containing spinel compound (1000°C). When the initial growth shows the only chromia formation (800°C), hematite formation appears differed in time. Protection against corrosion is thus increased when the initial germination of manganese-containing spinel oxide is inhibited in the oxide scale.

The aim of the present work is to investigate the effect of Lanthanum surface addition on the oxidation behaviour of the AISI 304 stainless steel, in air, at 1000°C. The in situ X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses on the blank steel reveal that after the first 10h oxidation, a change in the structural composition of the oxide scale occurs. During the first ten hours oxidation an initial growth of chromia and Mn1,5Cr1,5O4 is observed. After 10 h oxidation, chromia is not detected anymore and iron-containing oxides such as hematite (Fe2O3) and iron chromite (FeCr2O4) are observed in the outer part of the scale. With blank AISI 304 specimens, the iron-containing oxides are generally not very protective and show severe spallation during cooling to room temperature due to thermal stresses. They do not allow a good adherence of the corrosion layer under thermal cycling. On the Lanthanum coated AISI 304 Stainless Steel the oxidation rate is 10 times lower. In situ XRD analyses show the absence of iron containing oxides. It reveals the formation of a fine convoluted Cr2O3 layer associated with the formation of the mixed oxides Mn1,5Cr1,5O4 and LaCrO3. LaCrO3 is found to be located at the oxide/steel interface. Our results show that, even though the scale formed under isothermal conditions is not composed of iron containing oxides, Lanthanum sol-gel coating does not prevent spallation during thermal cycling at 1000°C.

Protective coating is an effective way to extend materials’ high-temperature service life. In order to improve the high-temperature oxidation resistance of AISI 304 stainless steel, mullite films with different layers were successfully prepared by the sol-gel method and the sintering process on the surface of stainless steel. The effect of the film layers on the high-temperature oxidation resistance of stainless steel at 900 °C for 100 h was studied. The analysis results of oxidation kinetics, X-rays diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive analysis (EDS) show that Al1.4Si0.3O2.7 mullite film effectively improved the high-temperature oxidation resistance of stainless steel. The sample with three-layer mullite film has the best high-temperature oxidation resistance. The mass gain and oxidation spalling mass are only 4.6% and 34.5% of those of the uncoated sample after 100 h cyclic oxidation at 900 °C. A chromium oxide layer was formed at the interface of mullite film and the substrate during the sintering process. The generation of selective Cr2O3 scale was promoted at the cyclic oxidation stage so that the sample with three-layers has excellent high-temperature oxidation resistance.

The failure of the protective oxide scales of AISI 304 and AISI 316 stainless steels has been studied and compared at 1,000°C in synthetic air. First, the isothermal thermogravimetric curves of both stainless steels were plotted to determine the time needed to reach the breakdown point. The different resistance of each stainless steel was interpreted on the basis of the nature of the crystalline phases formed, the morphology, and the surface structure as well as the cross-section structure of the oxidation products. The weight gain of AISI 304 stainless steel was about 8 times greater than that of AISI 316 stainless steel, and AISI 316 stainless steel reached the breakdown point about 40 times more slowly than AISI 304 stainless steel. In both stainless steels, reaching the breakdown point meant the loss of the protective oxide scale of Cr2O3, but whereas in AISI 304 stainless steel the Cr2O3scale totally disappeared and exclusively Fe2O3was formed, in AISI 316 stainless steel some Cr2O3persisted and Fe3O4was mainly formed, which means that AISI 316 stainless steel is more resistant to oxidation after the breakdown.
