The isothermal oxidation kinetic and oxidation behavior of Ni-based superalloy GH202 were investigated at temperatures from 800 °C to 1100 °C. The microstructure of GH202 was characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and electron back-scattered diffraction (EBSD). The composition and morphologies of oxide scales of the surface and cross-section samples were examined by X-ray diffraction (XRD), electron probe microanalysis (EPMA), and SEM combined with energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). The results show that the growth of the oxide scales on GH202 obeyed a parabolic law with an activation energy of 247.8 KJ·mol{sup −1} from 800 °C to 1100 °C. The continuous and dense oxide scales that formed at 800 °C and 900 °C were composed of Cr{sub 2}O{sub 3}, NiCr{sub 2}O{sub 4} and a small amount of TiO{sub 2}. Beneath the oxide scales, aluminum-rich oxides formed along the grain boundaries due to internal oxidation. After treatment at 1000 °C for 150 h, the oxide scale was separated into two layers, the outer layer with sparse holes that was mainly composed of Cr{sub 2}O{sub 3} and TiO{sub 2} and an inner layer of dense Cr{sub 2}O{sub 3}. At 1100 °C for 100 h the outer layer was spalled, due to the looser oxide scale with large blocks of TiO{sub 2} and NiCr{sub 2}O{sub 4} which provided channels for oxygen diffusion. - Highlights: •Isothermal oxidation kinetic of GH202 obeys a parabolic law from 800 °C to 1100 °C. •The activation energy of GH202 is closed to the diffusion activation of Cr{sup 3+}. •The evolution process of oxide scales from 800 °C to 1100 °C is displayed by EPMA. •The oxidation behavior of GH202 is mainly controlled by Cr{sup 3+} and Ti{sup 4+}.
