This paper reports that the co-deposition of chromium and silicon into a 2.25Cr-1.0Mo-0.15C steel, alloy 800, and type 304 stainless steel has been achieved using the pack cementation process. The ferritic coating produced on the 2.25 Cr-1.0Mo steel was approximately 225 {mu}m (9 mils) thick, whereas the inward diffusion of chromium and silicon produced a two-phase structure of ferrite and austenite for type 304. Chromium and silicon were incorporated into the austenitic solid solution upon diffusion into alloy 800. All coatings had approximately 25 to 35 wt% Cr and 2 to 3% Si at the surface. Cyclic oxidation testing in air of the coated 2.25Cr-1.0Mo steel (T = 700{degrees} C) and type 304 (T = 1035{degrees} C) showed a dramatic decrease in the oxidation kinetics compared to the original uncoated alloys. The cyclic oxidation of alloy 800 was also improved.
