Abstract
AbstractThe hot corrosion behavior of two ternary Mo–Si–Ti alloys (eutectic Mo–20.0Si–52.8Ti (at.%) and eutectoid Mo–21.0Si–34.0Ti (at.%)) was investigated at C and C for up to 100 h. Both Mo‐based alloys evidenced a hot corrosion attack, resulting in a uniform attack of the substrate surface. The higher Ti content of the eutectic alloy significantly reduced the formation of solid and volatile Mo oxides compared with the eutectoid alloy. After 24 h at C, the corrosion products formed on the eutectic alloy were only one‐tenth the thickness of the layers formed on the eutectoid alloy. The corrosion products were examined with optical and electron microscopy. Semiquantitative electron probe micro analysis and X‐ray diffraction measurements were used to identify the formed phases. The underlying corrosion mechanisms comprising not only hot corrosion‐induced fluxing but also oxidation‐induced pesting are discussed in detail.
