Abstract

0Cr18Ni10Ti stainless steel was coated by hot-dipping in a molten aluminum bath, and then diffusing annealing at 950°C for 2h. The high temperature isothermal oxidation behaviors of the hot-dipped aluminized steel and 0Cr18Ni10Ti steel were tested at 900 °C for 24h using Thermo gravimetric analyzer. The high temperature cyclic oxidation behaviors of the hot-dipped aluminized steel and 0Cr18Ni10Ti steel were tested at 900 °C for 24h using resistance furnace. The morphology was studied by SEM, the phase composition was characterized by EDS. The result of high temperature isothermal and cyclic oxidation test showed that the hot-dipped aluminum can dramatically improve the isothermal and cyclic oxidation of the 0Cr18Ni10Ti steel. The hot-dipping aluminum coating is consists of an outer layer of FeAl and an inner Iron solid solution with aluminum, after diffusion annealing at 950°C for 2 h. The Al2O3 oxide layer was formed on the hot-dipped aluminum coating during isothermal and cyclic oxidation process, which provides an additional protection for the steel from high temperature oxidation.
