In this study, the isothermal and cyclic corrosion behaviours of Haynes 282 and Haynes 214 in a lithium molten salt were investigated at 650°C for 168 h and 7 thermal cycles, respectively; this was achieved by measuring the mass changes, surface and cross-sectional morphologies with their elemental distributions, and compositional changes in the subscale, substrate and spalled oxide scale. The weight loss of Haynes 282 comprising an external corrosion layer was approximately four times lower than that of Haynes 214 with a spalled external corrosion layer, depending on the effects of their alloying elements and the preservation, spallation and dissolution of the corrosion layer. After 168 h and 7 thermal cycles, corrosion products of Haynes 282 were Cr 2 O 3 and CoCr 2 O 4 and those of Haynes 214 were Cr 2 O 3 , LiFeO 2 and FeCr 2 O 4 . In addition, the internal corrosion layers of Haynes 282 and Haynes 214 exhibited localised and uniform corrosion behaviours, respectively.
