Abstract

The corrosion behavior of Fe–19Ni–13/21Cr–xAl (x = 0, 2, 6 at%) alloys in (vol%) 15CH4–70H2–15CO2 atmosphere was investigated at 900 °C. The presence of oxygen significantly improves the resistance to carbon attack. Continuous oxide scales formed on all alloys. A few carbides appeared in Fe–19Ni–21Cr–xAl (x = 0, 2 at%). The addition of 6 at% Al promoted the formation of external Al2O3 which could work with external Cr2O3 to resist carbon attack, while 2 at% Al only resulted in the appearance of internal alumina.
