Oxidation behavior of additively manufactured zrb2–sic in air and in co2 is reported in the temperature range of 700–1000 °c. Observed scale morphologies in air and in co2 were similar, featuring an outer borosilicate layer and an inner porous zirconia layer containing partially oxidized silicon carbide particles and remnant borosilicate products. Oxide scale thicknesses and parabolic scaling constants in air were approximately twice those observed in co2 across all studied temperatures. Activation energies for oxidation of 140 ± 20 kj/mol in air and 110 ± 20 kj/mol in co2 were determined, indicating similar diffusion processes that appear to be rate-limiting. …

Austenitic Cr–Ni Alloyed Heat Resistant Steels with Nb Additions Are Used for Intensively Thermo-Mechanically Loaded Cast Components Working in Extreme High Temperature Oxidizing Environment. their Performance during Static Oxidation and Transient Thermo-Mechanical Loading Was Investigated to Recommend an Optimal Cost-Effective Cr/Ni Composition of Nb-Alloyed Austenitic Class Steels. the Static Oxidation and Transient Thermo-Mechanical Behavior of Three Austenitic Steels with Different Cr/Ni Alloying Levels Were Investigated and Compared for Variety of Working Conditions. Static Oxidation Was Performed between 900 °C and 1000 °C in Air for 400 H. the Critical Temperature Which Increases Spallation during Static Oxidation Was Determined for Each …

To improve the oxidation resistance of cast iron containing Si and Mo (HiSiMo), 1wt.% Cr and 3wt.% Al were added into the base alloy to improve high temperature oxidation resistance for exhaust manifold applications. Oxidation tests were performed in both dry and wet air (air + 10% H2O) at 800 °C for 1, 10, 24, and 50 h. The mass change and oxide thickness were measured to evaluate the oxidation resistance. Scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM/EDS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were employed to characterize the oxidized samples. The results showed that the additions of Al …

Thin-walled castings made from Cr–Ni austenitic steels offer a combination of light weight of a near-net component with significant high temperature corrosion protection by forming a surface oxide layer. However, above critical service conditions (temperature, atmosphere, thermal cycling), oxidized surface can result in intensive surface degradation due to scale spallation. Scale spallation can decrease the wall thickness which could be detrimental to the in-service life of thin-walled castings. Experiments and stochastic simulations of spallation assisted oxidation were performed with three cast austenitic heat-resistant steels having different Cr–Ni concentrations at temperatures between 900 and 1000 ℃ on air and water vapor …

Microstructure development of the products formed upon oxidation of hafnium carbide (HfCx, x = 0.65, 0.81, or 0.94) at 1300°C and 0.8 mbar oxygen pressure was investigated using Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, electron microscopy, and electron energy-loss spectroscopy. For all specimens a multilayered oxide scale was observed featuring an outermost porous hafnia layer and an interlayer adjacent to the parent carbide containing hafnia interspersed with carbon. The outermost hafnia features coarse pores presumably formed during initial stages of oxidation to allow rapidly evolving gaseous products to escape from the oxidation front. As the oxidation scale thickens, diffusional resistance results in …

The current generation of multilayer Si/Yb2Si2O7 environmental barrier coatings (EBCs) are temperature limited by the melting point of Si, 1414°C. To investigate higher temperature EBCs, the cyclic steam oxidation of EBCs comprised of a single layer of ytterbium disilicate (YbDS) was compared to multilayered Si/YbDS EBCs, both deposited on SiC substrates using atmospheric plasma spray. After 500 1-h cycles at 1300°C in 90 vol%H2O-10 vol%air with a gas velocity of 1.5 cm/s, both multilayer Si/YbDS and single layer YbDS grew thinner silica scales than bare SiC, with the single layer YbDS forming the …

The oxidation kinetics of a single crystal of SrTiOs were measured with a tensivolumetric system over the temperature range 700 -975 at 0.03 atm oxygen pressure. The oxidation was found to be oxygen diffusion limited with an activation energy of 14.9 - 1.3 kcal/mole. Combining the kinetic data with relative defect concentration data yielded an activation energy for oxygen self-diffusion of 57 - 16 kcal/mole. The enthalpy of formation of doubly ionized oxygen vacancies was calculated to be 126 - 13 kcal/mol. © 1975, The Electrochemical Society, Inc. All rights reserved.
