Abstract
Oxidation tests were conducted on a master alloy, Fe-16Ni-(5–8)Cr-3Si-lA1, to which (0–4) wt/o pct Mn and/or Mo were added. Tests were conducted at temperatures ranging from 1073–1273 K for times up to 1000 hr. Additions of Mn resulted in formation of a dual oxide structure and decreased oxidation protection. Addition of Mo significantly improved oxidation protection by formation of an intermetallic Fe(Mo)Si precipitate that eventually formed a protective SiO2 oxide sublayer. Increasing the Cr concentration in an alloy containing both Mn and Mo resulted in a slight increase in weight gain. To first order, the apparent oxidation activation energy for all the alloys was nearly constant, 121 kJ/mol, suggesting that the same mechanism controlled the oxidation for all compositions. The oxidation protection was related to the alloy components and concentration.
