Composition, Microstructure, and Water Vapor Effects on Internal/External Oxidation of Alumina-Forming Austenitic (AFA) Stainless Steels

Journal Article Brady, Michael P ; Yamamoto, Yukinori ; Santella, Michael L ; ... - Oxidation of Metals

A family of creep-resistant austenitic stainless steels based on alumina (Al2O3) scale formation for superior high-temperature oxidation resistance was recently identified. Results of long-term cyclic oxidation studies (100 h cycles and total exposure duration for up to 7500 h) from 650-800 aC in air and/or air with 10% water vapor for a series of 2.5, 3, and 4 wt.% Al AFA compositions, with varying levels of Nb and Ni additions, are presented. Water vapor was observed to enhance subscale Al consumption in the AFA alloys relative to dry air exposure, presumably via enhanced alumina scale cracking and reformation. Water vapormore »« less

Evaluation of welded and repair-welded stainless steel for Light Water Reactor (LWR) service. Compositional effects on the sensitization of austenitic stainless steels

Technical Report Bruemmer, S M ; Charlot, L A ; Atteridge, D G

A program is being conducted to develop validated models for the prediction of stress corrosion cracking susceptibility in the heat-affected zone of stainless steel weldments. This report reviews the effects of alloying and impurity elements on the sensitization propensity of Types 304 and 316 stainless steel. As expected, carbon was found to be the dominant element controlling sensitization, with chromium, molybdenum, and nickel also important. Other alloying elements, such as manganese and silicon, have at most only a small effect on sensitization. However, strongly segregating elements, such as nitrogen, boron, and phosphorus, may have a significant effect on intergranular corrosionmore »« less
The effects of water vapor on the oxidation behavior of alumina forming austenitic stainless steels

Journal Article Yanar, N. M. ; Lutz, B. S. ; Garcia-Fresnillo, L. ; ... - Oxidation of Metals

The isothermal oxidation behavior of three alumina forming austenitic (AFA) stainless steels with varying composition was studied at 650 and 800 °C in dry air and gases which contained water vapor. The AFA alloys exhibited better oxidation resistance than a “good chromia former” at 650 °C, particularly in H₂O-containing atmospheres by virtue of alumina-scale formation. Although the AFA alloys were more resistant than chromia formers, their oxidation resistance was degraded at 650 °C in the presence of water vapor. In dry air the AFA alloys formed, thin continuous alumina scales, whereas in Ar–4%H₂–3%H₂O the areas of continuous alumina were reducedmore »« less

Characterization of the oxide film formed on type 316 stainless steel in 288 C water in cyclic normal and hydrogen water chemistries

Journal Article Kim, Y J - Corrosion

Characteristics of the oxide film formed on type 316 (UNS S31600) stainless steel (SS) in 288 C water under cyclic normal water chemistry (NWC) and hydrogen water chemistry (HWC) conditions were examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and Auger electron spectroscopy (AES). It was found that the oxide film mainly consists of two oxide layers: an outer oxide layer with a large particle (nickel-enriched magnetite [Fe{sub 3}O{sub 4}]-type structure) and an intermediate or small particle (hematite [{alpha}-Fe{sub 2}O{sub 3}] structure) and a very fine-grain inner layer with a chromium-enriched Fe{sub 3}O{sub 4}-type structure. Under cyclic watermore »« less
