Current and future power systems require steels resistant to high-temperature oxidation in CO₂-rich environments. The introduction of structural defects by various surface treatments can profoundly affect the oxidation/corrosion behavior of steels in many environments. This effect is largely unexplored for steels exposed to high-temperature CO₂, which is the focus of this work. We prepared Grade 22, Grade 91, 347H, and 310S steels with three different surface finishes, ranging from little to substantial surface damage, and exposed the steels to 1 bar CO₂, 200 bar supercritical CO₂, and laboratory air at 550 °C for up to 1500 h. Surface finish had little impact on the oxidation behavior of low-Cr (2 wt%) Grade 22 and high-Cr (25 wt%) 310S steels. In contrast, intermediate-Cr steels Grade 91 (8 wt%) and 347H (17 wt%) generally showed improved oxidation and carburization resistance with increasing extent of surface damage, which was attributed to the delay or prevention of the onset of Fe-rich oxide nodule growth. Comparison between exposure environments suggests that this effect is more complex for CO₂ compared to air and that it is additionally affected by CO₂ pressure. In conclusion, the results suggest that surface treatments should be considered as one approach to achieve improved corrosion resistance in high-temperature CO₂, particularly for steels containing Cr levels near the transition that is required to form and maintain a protective Cr-rich oxide scale.
