Corrosion Performance of Fe-Based Alloys in Simulated Oxy-Fuel Environment

Journal Article · · Metallurgical and Materials Transactions. B, Process Metallurgy and Materials Processing Science
The long-term corrosion of Fe-based alloys in simulated oxy-fuel environment at 1023 K (750 A degrees C) was studied. Detailed results are presented on weight change, scale thickness, internal penetration, microstructural characteristics of the corrosion products, and the cracking of scales for the alloys after exposure at 1023 K (750 A degrees C) for up to 3600 hours. An incubation period during which the corrosion rate was low was observed for the alloys. After the incubation period, the corrosion accelerated, and the corrosion process followed linear kinetics. Effects of alloy, CaO-containing ash, and gas composition on the corrosion rate were also studied. In addition, synchrotron nanobeam X-ray analysis was employed to determine the phase and chemical composition of the oxide layers on the alloy surface. Results from these studies are being used to address the long-term corrosion performance of Fe-based alloys in various coal-ash combustion environments and to develop methods to mitigate high-temperature ash corrosion.
