Paralinear Oxidation of Chromium in O2 + H2O Environment at 600–700 °C

Abstract: The oxidation of chromium in dry O 2 and in O 2 + 10%H 2 O at 600 and 700°C is studied. Scale morphology is investigated by several methods, including scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of cross sections prepared by focussed ion beam milling (FIB). In O 2 + H 2 O at 600 and 700°C, chromium forms a duplex scale consisting of an inner barrier oxide and a discontinuous outer oxide made up of bladeshaped crystals. Thermogravimetric (TG) measurements show that water vapour influences chromium oxidation by causing v… Show more

“…Several recent investigations of iron oxidation in this temperature range shows that the magnetite layer actually consists of a lower inward-growing part and an outer outward growing part [22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29]. A recent study of the oxidation behaviour of a binary Fe-2.25Cr steel at 6008C [30] showed a similar three-layered scale structure. In that case, the bottom inward growing layer was reported to consist of iron chromium spinel oxide while the chromium free upper part of the scale was made up of a middle magnetite layer and a hematite layer on top.…”

“…The fact that chromium is only present in the inner layer is explained by the comparatively slow diffusion of Cr 3þ in spinel oxide [31]. It has also been shown that water vapour accelerates the corrosion of both iron and a binary Fe2.25Cr steel at 6008C [32]. The same effect was observed on iron at 5008C while water vapour had little effect at 4008C [28].…”
