Highlights: • Oxidation kinetics has been analyzed by discontinuous weighing. • Microstructure and phase composition of oxide films were investigated by SEM, EDS and XRD analysis. • The oxidation resistance of 1000 °C is obviously deteriorated comparing with that at 800 °C and 900 °C. • The oxidation mechanism has been discussed. - Abstract: The high temperature oxidation behavior of a high Al-containing ferritic heat-resistant stainless steel at temperatures of 800, 900, and 1000 °C in air were studied in isothermal oxidation tests. The results showed that the isothermal oxidation kinetic curves obtained at different temperatures followed the parabolic law, and the weight gain per unit at 1000 °C was significantly higher than that at 800 and 900 °C. The oxidation rate at 1000 °C was about three times faster than that at 800 and 900 °C. Continuous and compact multicomponent oxide films mainly composed of Cr{sub 2}O{sub 3}, Al{sub 2}O{sub 3}, spinel MnFe{sub 2}O{sub 4}, and MnCr{sub 2}O{sub 4} were obtained at 800 and 900 °C. The oxide film started delaminating at 1000 °C; the outer layer was composed of Cr{sub 2}O{sub 3}, spinel MnCr{sub 2}O{sub 4}, and MnFe{sub 2}O{sub 4}, the middle layer was composed of Fe{sub 2}O{sub 3} and Fe-Cr matrix, and the inner layer was composed of Al{sub 2}O{sub 3} and SiO{sub 2}. Oxidation resistance at 1000 °C was reduced mainly because of porous Fe{sub 2}O{sub 3} and inner oxidation of Al and Si. In addition, the oxidation mechanism was discussed based on kinetic and morphological observations.
