Abstract
This paper summarizes the conclusions of a panel of 11 scientists assembled by the U.S. Department of Energy to address the questions regarding our understanding of the scientific basis of chromium alloying additions and to identify the basic material science required to support future substitution/conservation programs. The state of knowledge of how chromium imparts desired properties is explored in the first five sections of this paper which covers the electronic structure of ferrous alloys and electronic structure of oxides, oxidation resistance, corrosion resistance, and mechanical properties. Some of the most promising candidate materials or novel processing techniques for potential new classes of materials are then discussed in sections on alloy design, high-temperature alloys, surface alloying and modification, and structural ceramics.
