Abstract

The oxidation behavior of (MCO)-coated Haynes 230 (H230) and Crofer 22 APU was investigated between 700 and . The oxidation kinetics of the coated alloys was compared with that of base alloys at . An apparent two-stage kinetics behavior of the MCO-coated Crofer 22 APU was observed. The coating effectively reduced the oxidation rate constants of Crofer 22 APU by 5.5 times, whereas it did not seem to affect the oxidation kinetics of H230. The oxidation activation energies of the coated alloys suggest distinctly different oxidation mechanisms between the coated H230 and Crofer 22 APU. A Cr-modified spinel was observed in the interface region between the metal oxide scale and the spinel coating after long-term oxidation for both alloys. A semiquantitative model of oxidation kinetics was developed to explain the different behaviors observed. Apparently, the Cr-modified spinel may play a more important role on H230 during long-term oxidation. The heat-treatment of H230 in the reducing environment used for the MCO coating application processes appeared to debit oxidation resistance of the base alloy. The optimization of the MCO application process is expected to benefit oxidation resistance as well as chromia containment on H230.
