Abstract
A series of modified type 310 stainless steels containing 3 wt.% titanium were oxidized in a low oxygen partial pressure atmosphere (\(P_{O_2 }\) ≃3.8× 10 −15 atm) at 1255 K (1800°F). The scale morphologies and growth rates were similar to those observed on the same alloys in coal gasification atmospheres. The presence of sulfur (as H 2 S) in the gasification atmosphere apparently has a minimal effect on the corrosion scale formed. The growth rate and phase transformations of the external titanium-rich layer indicate that both titanium and manganese can readily permeate through the apparently compact Cr 2 O 3 layer.
