The sulfidation behavior of Ni-Mo alloys containing up to 40 wt. % Mo was studied at P{sub S{sub 2}} = 0.01 atm. over the temperature range of 550-800{degree}C. The alloys included two solid solutions (Ni-10Mo and Ni-20Mo), the single-phase intermetallic compound Ni{sub 4}Mo(Ni-29Mo), and two alloys which were two-phase, Ni-30Mo and Ni-40Mo (Ni{sub 4}Mo + Ni{sub 3}Mo). The sulfidation of all alloys followed the parabolic rate law. The decrease in sulfidation rate with increasing Mo was attributed to increasing amounts of the intermetallic compound. The increasing volume fraction of particles decreased the available diffusion area in the inner layer and provided a blocking effect.
