T92 steel was oxidized at 650 °C for 1000 h in dry and wet oxyfuel gases. The microstructure of inner oxide layer was investigated using scanning transmission electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectroscopy on thin lamellas of oxide cross-sections. The oxides were composed of fine equiaxed grains and separated into Fe-rich and Cr-rich regions. Fe-rich regions were wustite and iron sulphide while Cr-rich regions consisted of Fe-Cr spinel with different stoichiometries. Precipitates of (W,Mo)-rich oxides were formed within the oxide scale and beneath the oxide/alloy interface. Often iron sulphide and (W,Mo)-rich oxide were surrounded by Cr-rich spinel.
Evaluation of nano-sized internal oxidation in a Fe-13Cr alloy exposed to water vapor atmosphere
(2016)
The topotactic formation of nano-sized precipitates immediately under the internal oxide layer in a Fe-13Cr alloy exposed to oxidizing water vapor atmosphere was recently reported. The precipitates were identified as lath-shaped Fe-Cr spinel exhibiting a crystallographic orientation relationship with the ferritic matrix. The authors proposed that these precipitates could act as a precursor to the formation of the spinel layer observed in the adjacent part of the oxide scale.The occurrence of internal oxidation in Fe–Cr alloys subjected to similar conditions had been previously identified and directly correlated to the presence of water vapor. In the present work, we attempt to rationalize the processes occurring during the oxidation of this alloy through thermodynamic and kinetic analyses based on the CALPHAD approach, using the geometrical representation of phase equilibria and concepts developed to describe internal oxidation. The influence of water vapor on the mechanism and kinetics of formation of the nano-sized precipitates and its role in the overall oxidation process is also considered.
