Abstract
Two alumina-forming Fe-based alloys, duplex FeNiCrAl (alumina-forming duplex stainless steel, ADSS) and ferritic FeCrAl (APM) alloys, were oxidized in steam at 800 °C to 1050 °C for up to 72 h. Formation of spinel oxides on ADSS resulted in larger weight gain than APM, while the highest weight gain was observed at 900 °C. Outer γ- and/or θ-alumina and inner α-alumina were formed on APM, whereas dispersed spinel oxides as well as γ- and α-alumina on ADSS. Similar alumina formation kinetics was observed for both alloys, while transient alumina formation resulted in faster kinetics at 900 °C.
