The oxidation kinetics and microstructure characteristics of oxide scales thermally grown on the surface of developed FeCr alloy were investigated at 900 o C. The influence of difference sintering technique, i.e. spark plasma sintering and hot pressing, to improve nanostructured alloy performance was studied. The La-implantation was also considered in this study. It was found that the SPS sintered sample showed better performance than the HP sintered sample. Moreover, it also found that a combining of La-implantation and nanostructured alloy was most beneficial. While nanostructured alloy reduced the oxidation rate, the La-implantation increased the Cr 2 O 3 scale conductivity.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
