Abstract
Isothermal oxidation behaviors of Fe-9Cr-1Mo alloy were investigated at 600, 700, 750 and 850 ∘C for 72 h in air atmosphere. The oxidation rates were measured using a thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA). The structure and composition of the oxide scale were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS) and conversion electron Mossbauer spectrometry (CEMS). In this study it was found that the oxide layers form duplex structures consisting of Fe and Cr oxides. CEMS spectra are composed of one doublet due to dispersed Fe 3+ in Cr2O3 oxidation layers produced at high temperatures and two magnetic components due to Fe-Cr-Mo alloy substrate and hematite (Fe, Cr)2O3 with lower hyperfine field than pure hematite (52 T). Fe rich oxides are formed at the surface by oxidation at relatively low temperatures of 600 ∘C and 700 ∘C, while Cr rich (Fe, Cr)-oxides are formed in the top surface layers by oxidation at higher than 750 ∘C.
