Abstract

The article concerns high-temperature corrosion of steel S235. Samples were oxidized in air for 480 s. The experiment was carried out at the following temperatures: 1100 °C or 1200 °C. The emissivity factor of the scale was measured with a thermal camera. The emissivity of the oxidation layer formed at the lower temperature was 0.65, and for the layer oxidized at the higher temperature, it was 0.59. The formed scale had a tree-layer structure, which included: Fe2O3, Fe3O4, FeO. The thickness and structure of the scale were compared, both in cross section and on their surface. The oxide scale formed at 1200 °C was twice as thick as that formed at 1100 °C. The scale layer with the lowest oxidation state at the higher temperature was 60.5% and at the lower temperature 54.4%. The scale surface formed at 1100 °C consisted of several phases and was delaminated, whereas the surface of oxidized layer at 1200 °C was compact and homogeneous.
