Title: Resistance to Corrosion by Water at High Temperatures of Al-Fe-Ni Alloy after Prolonged Heat Treatment. Influence of Ti and Zr Additions; TENUE A LA CORROSION PAR L'EAU A HAUTE TEMPERATURE DE L'ALLIAGE Al- Fe-Ni APRES DES CHAUFFAGES DE LONGUE DUREE. INFLUENCE DES ADDITIONS Ti ET Zr

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4141395

The influence of Ti and Zr additions on the heterogeneity texture of Al-- Fe-- Ni alloys and the resultant effect on their corrosion resistance is briefly described. The results are given of corrosion tests on these alloys after prolonged heat treatment. Without additions, the eutectic structure of the basis alloy is subject to a coalescence, which results in a deterioration of corrosion resistance. This effect applies equally to the as-cast and to the wrought conditions. The addition of Ti or Zr retards this deterioration very considerably, both for the as-cast and wrought alloys. (auth)
