Abstract

The fundamentals of high temperature oxidation and corrosion of metals and alloys are discussed on thermodynamic, kinetic and morphological points of view. Special attention is paid to the compacity of corrosion scales, the nature of the diffusing defects and the location of the slow process(es). The influence of gases other than oxygen and alloying additions are described. In a second part, the effects of high energy beams are presented and the location of their influence is discussed. Major or minor modifications are described, leading to enhancement or inhibition of the corrosion rate. The use of high energy beams as corrosion protection tools is envisaged.
