A new class of polycrystalline gamma-prime strengthened superalloys with alloy compositions of (wt%) Ni-20Co-13Cr-6Fe-4Al-3W-2Mo-(4-x)Nb-(x)Ti (x = 0,1,2) were subjected to cyclic oxidation exposures in dry air at 800 °C for 3600 h. The alloys were borderline chromia/alumina formers, showing good oxidation resistance relative to commercially available materials of similar composition. While all alloys formed alumina scales initially, only the alloy with the lowest Ti/Nb ratio retained an alumina scale for the duration of the exposure. Formation of a continuous layer of rutile TiO₂ at the alumina/alloy interface is proposed to cause eventual alumina failure for the alloys containing Ti.
