Thermodynamic assessment of high-temperature oxidation of Fe—Cr alloys in air

  • Published:
Inorganic Materials Aims and scope

Abstract

A thermodynamic technique is proposed for assessing the variation of composition with depth in systems graded in composition. The technique is used to evaluate the compositions of scales forming on Fe, Cr, and Fe—Cr alloys during high-temperature oxidation in air. The coexistence of inclusions and extended precipitates of several phases in scales is interpreted in terms of oxidation thermodynamics kinetics.
