Abstract
The corrosion behavior of Fe-28Al and Fe-18Al-10Nb (at.%) was investigated over the temperature range of 700-900 °C in a H2/H2S/H2O gas mixture with varying sulfur partial pressures of 10-2-103 Pa and oxygen partial pressures of 10-19-10-15 Pa. In general, the corrosion kinetics followed the parabolic rate law although two-stage kinetics were noted in some cases. The steady-state parabolic rate constants increased with increasing temperature. Based on the equivalent addition (28 at.%) of alloying elements, it was found that Fe-18Al-10Nb exhibited a better corrosion resistance, being 2.1-3.9 orders of magnitude lower than Fe-28Al (depending on temperature). The scales formed on Fe-28Al consisted of mostly FeS, α-Al2O3, and minor FeAl2S4, while the scales formed on Fe-18Al-10Nb consisted of mostly α-Al2O3, Nb3S4, Nb2O5, and minor FexNbS2 (FeNb2S4/FeNb3S6) at T≤800 °C and of α-Al2O3, Nb3S4, and FexNbS2 at 900 °C. The formation of Al2O3 and Nb3S4 resulted in the significant reduction of corrosion rates.
