Abstract: | The oxidation behavior and the oxide microstructure on Fe-3 wt. % Cr alloy were investigated at 800°C in dry air at atmospheric pressure. Two distinct oxidation rate laws were observed: initial parabolic oxidation was followed by nonparabolic growth. The change in the oxidation kinetics was caused by microchemical and microstructural developments in the oxide scale. Several layers developed in the oxide scale, consisting of an innermost layer of (Fe,Cr)3O4 spinel, an intermediate layer of (Fe,Cr)2O3 sesquioxide, and two outer layers of Fe2O3 hematite, each with different morphologies. Wustite (Fe1–xO) and distorted cubic oxide (-(Fe,Cr)2O3) were observed during the iniital parabolic oxidation only. |
