Five ternary additions, Cr, Ti, Mn, V, and Al were studied at equi-atomic-percent levels (17 a/o) for their effect on the sulfidation behavior of Ni-19a/o Mo (28-30 w/o) over the range of 600-800{degree}C in 0.01 atm S{sub 2}. Al was by far the most effective addition. A linear decrease in log k{sub p} vs. Al was observed up to 7.5w/o Al, beyond which no further change was observed. All alloys followed the parabolic rate law. Complex scales were formed on all alloys, consisting of an outer layer of Nis{sub 1+x} and complex inner layers which depended upon alloy composition. MoS{sub 2} was a constituent of the inner scales except for the alloys with Al. A ternary sulfide, Al{sub 0.55}Mo{sub 2}S{sub 4} and Al{sub 2}S{sub 3} were observed.
