Despite the fact that conventional high temperature titanium alloys possess a good combination of low weight, high strength and good corrosion resistance, their operational temperatures do not exceed 540-600 °C, since at higher temperatures they suffer from extensive oxidation, scaling and formation of a brittle oxygen-reach diffusion layer on their surface, so-called ‘apha-case’. The alloying with silicon was regarded as a promising way to raise the working temperatures of titanium alloys, since silicon is known to improve oxidation resistance, oxide scale adherence and high temperature creep behavior of titanium without noticeable deterioration of its ductility. The present paper was focused on studying of the oxidation kinetics and the formation of oxide scale and alpha-case layers on a series of experimental Ti−Al−Si based alloys, additionally alloyed with zirconium and tin. The oxidation kinetics of the experimental alloys upon exposure in air at 700 °С for up to 240 hours was examined and compared with that of commercially available Ті−6242 alloy. The oxide scale thickness, its phase composition and crystal morphology were characterized using X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), while the alpha-case layer was analyzed using SEM and microhardness measurements. According to the experimental findings, the experimental Ti−Al−Si based alloys demonstrated a good potential for their use at high temperatures.

Ordered-alpha titanium alloys having a DO19 type structure have good potential for high temperature (600°C) applications, due to the thermal stability of the ordered phase and the inherent resistance to recrystallization of these alloys. Five different Ti-Al-Ga alloys consisting of equal atomic percents of aluminum and gallium solute additions up to the stoichiometric composition, Ti3(Al, Ga), were used to study the growth kinetics of the ordered phase and the nature of its interface.The alloys were homogenized in the beta region in a vacuum of about 5×10-7 torr, furnace cooled; reheated in air to 50°C below the alpha transus for hot working. The alloys were subsequently acid cleaned, annealed in vacuo, and cold rolled to about. 050 inch prior to additional homogenization

We consider the problems of the complex application of the aluminium-yttrium binder in the fabrication of high-temperature resistant melting crucibles and investment molds thermoschemically resistant to titanium melts. The results of the contact interaction investigations of a molten titanium alloy with a material of aluminum-yttrium ceramics are presented. The usage of ceramic products of α-Al2O3–Y3Al5O12∙α-Al2O3 composition under conditions of high-temperature melting and pouring under vacuum minimizes the physicochemical interaction and significantly reduces the alpha case layer on cast products, thereby improving their operational properties.

This paper investigates the performance of Fe-33Ni-18Cr alloy at high temperature oxidation. The samples were isothermally oxidized at three different oxidation temperatures, namely, 600 °C, 800 °C and 1000 °C for 150 hours. This alloy was ground by using several grits of SiC paper as well as weighed by using analytical balance and measured by using Vernier caliper before oxidation test. The characterization was carried out using scanning electron microscope (SEM) equipped with energy dispersive x-ray (EDX) and x-ray diffraction (XRD). The results show that, the higher oxidation temperatures, the weight gain of the samples were increase. Sample of 1000 °C indicate more weight gain compared to samples oxidized at 600 °C and 800 °C. The kinetic of oxidation of all samples followed the parabolic rate law. The surface morphology of oxide scale at lower temperature is thin and form a continuous layer, while at high temperature, the oxide scale develops thick layer with angular oxide particles.

The isothermal oxidation behavior of a new developed Ni base superalloy named DM02 for high temperature dies was studied in this paper. The dynamic curve was achieved by monitoring weight gain of the alloy as a function of time. The results showed that the alloy had fairly good oxidation resistance at 1050°C and 1100°C. The oxidation kinetics at both 1050°C and 1100°C followed parabolic rules in segment. It has been found that the oxidation of the alloy was controlled by multi-oxides of (Ni, Co)O, (Ni, Co)Al2O4, and NiWO4, growth mechanism in the primary stage, and by Al2O3, NiAl2O4 growth mechanism in the following stage. After oxidation at 1050°C for 100h, the oxide scale of the alloy was mainly composed of two areas. Some were thin uniform (Ni, Co)Al2O4(outer)/Al2O3 (inner) composites scale and others were multi-layer oxide scale of ( Ni,Co)O / multi-oxides (mainly NiWO4、NiO and NiAl2O4.) /Al2O3.

The oxide scale evolution with high temperature on CVD aluminide coatings deposited on a Directionally Solidified (DS) Ni-base superalloy is studied in this work. High temperature oxidation was carried out at 1100°C in air for 240 h under isothermal conditions and for 10 cycles (1 cycle = 24 h at 1100°C). The morphological and microstructural characterisation of the coatings has been performed using optical and electron microscopy as well as X-ray diffraction. Contrary to most of the results published in the literature, the rumpling phenomenon appears on the isothermally oxidised specimens whereas spallation, nodule formation and wrinkling of the oxide scale occur on the cyclically oxidised samples. The results are discussed in terms of the β-NiAl to γ’-Ni3Al phase transformation, the likely associated volume changes and of the growth stresses at high temperature.

Titanium alloys, such as Ti-6Al-4V alloy, fabricated by additive manufacturing processes is a winning combination in the aeronautic field. Indeed, the high specific mechanical properties of titanium alloys with the optimized design of parts allowed by additive manufacturing should allow aircraft weight reduction. But, the long term use of Ti-6Al-4V alloy is limited to 315 °C due to high oxidation kinetics above this temperature [1]. The formation of an oxygen diffusion zone in the metal and an oxide layer above it may reduce the durability of titanium parts leading to premature failure [2, 3]. In this study, Ti-6Al-4V alloy was fabricated by Electron Beam Melting (EBM). As built microstructure evolutions after Hot Isostatic Pressure (HIP) treatment at 920 °C and 1000 bar for 2h were investigated. As built microstructure of Ti-6Al-4V fabricated by EBM was composed of Ti-α laths in a Ti-β matrix. High temperature oxidation of Ti-6Al-4V alloy at 600 °C of as-built and HIP-ed microstructures was studied. This temperature was chosen to increase oxidation kinetics and to study the influence of oxidation on tensile mechanical properties. In parallel, two other oxidation temperatures, i.e. 500 °C and 550°C allowed to access to the effect of temperature on long-term oxidation.

The oxidation behavior of Fe–Si alloys at 1073K in air was investigated. The oxidation kinetics described by the parabolic rate law of diffusion controlled oxidation and the oxidation rate decrease with the increasing Si content. Fe-Si alloys were oxidized for different times at 1073K to obtain the same scale thickness of approximately 30μm. Observations of scale cross-sections indicated the structure of oxide scale and elemental distribution in oxide scales strongly depends on Si content. The oxide scale on Fe-Si alloys with low Si content consisted of three layers with an outer Fe2O3, an intermediate Fe3O4 and an inner FeO and some voids were formed in Fe3O4 and FeO layers. The Si-rich oxide layer was formed at the scale/alloy interface of Fe-Si alloys with high Si content. Furthermore, the amount of internal oxidation zone increased with the increasing Si content. Observations of scale cross-sections indicated that the structure of oxide scale and elemental distribution in oxide scale strongly depend on Si content.

Corrosion behavior of martensitic heat resisting steel T91 in high-temperature carbon dioxide environment at 500-700 °C was investigated. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and glow-discharge optical emission spectrometry were employed to characterize the corrosion products. The results showed that the corrosion kinetics of T91 followed a parabolic law with experimental time. The oxide scale thickness of T91 followed an exponential growth law from 500 °C to 700 °C. Internal carburization was detected underneath the corrosion scale. What’s more, the carburization depth was larger than the corrosion scale. The variations of Cr and C elements distribution were discussed.
