Abstract

The oxidation behavior of Ni-Fe-Cr-Al alloys with Cr content of 20%Cr, 24%Cr and 28%Cr (mass percentage) respectively at 1200^oC in air for 100 h were studied by intermittent weighing method. The microstructure and phase composition of the alloys and oxide scales were also characterized. The results show that the oxidation kinetics curves of the three alloys all conform to the parabolic law. The oxidation resistance of the alloys is enhanced with the increasing Cr content. A two-layered oxide scale is formed on the surface of the three alloys after oxidation at 1200^oC for 1 h, i.e. the outer layer was composed of Cr₂O₃ and a small amount of spinel oxide NiCr₂O₄, and the inner layer was Al₂O₃ layer. After 100 h oxidation, the oxide scale still has a two-layered structure, which is slightly different from those of the 1 h oxidation, namely, the outer layer is mainly composed of mixed spinel and a small amount of Cr₂O₃, the mixed spinel is NiCr₂O₄ and NiFe₂O₄, and the inner one is continuous Al₂O₃ layer. The three Ni-Fe-Cr-Al alloys with different Cr content showed obvious internal nitriding during air oxidation. When oxidized for 1 h, the increase of Cr content presents a certain inhibitory effect on internal nitriding. With the extension of oxidation time (100 h), the nitriding depth of the three alloys is similar, and the increase of Cr content has little effect on the internal nitriding.

Key words: metallic materials Ni-Fe-Cr-Al alloy oxidation kinetics internal nitriding Cr content
