Title: Effect of 0. 1 at. % zirconium on the cyclic oxidation resistance of. beta. -NiAl

Abstract

The effect of 0.1 at.% Zr(0.2 wt. % Zr) on the cyclic oxidation of hipped ..beta..-NiAl was studied. Oxidation testing was performed in static air at 1100-1200/sup 0/C, using 1-hr exposure cycles for test times up to 3000 hr. The weight change versus time data were modeled with the COSP computer program to analyze and predict cyclic-oxidation behavior. Zr additions significantly change the nature of the scale-spalling process during cooling so that the oxide spalls near the oxide-air interface at a relatively low depth within the scale. Without Zr, the predominantly ..cap alpha..-Al/sub 2/O/sub 3/ scale tends to spall randomly to bare metal at relatively high effective-scale-loss rates, particularly at 1150/sup 0/C and 1200/sup 0/C. This leads to higher rates of Al consumption for the Zr-free aluminide and much earlier depletion of al, leading to eventual breakaway (i.e., failure).
