Abstract
Volatilization of oxides during cyclic oxidation of commercial Nichrome, Inconel 750, René 41, Stellite 6B, and GE-1541 was studied at 1200°C in static air. Quantitative analysis of oxide vapor deposits revealed that oxides of tungsten, molybdenum, niobium, manganese, and chromium volatilized preferentially from the oxide scales. Aluminum and silicon were not detected in vapor deposits. For all the alloys except GE-1541 chromium was found to be the main metallic element in the oxide scales.
