The corrosion behavior of Fe-Ni alloys in molten 45KF-50AlF(3)-5Al(2)O(3) (wt.%) at 700 degrees C was characterized in this study. After oxygen evolution, all of the Fe-Ni alloys formed a passivation film consisting of an outer Fe2O3 layer, an intermediate Fe3O4 layer, and an inner FeO layer. Because of the outward diffusions of nickel ions, a NiO layer formed in the passivation film when the 43Fe-57Ni alloy was passivated by O-2. A solid-state reaction between Fe2O3 and NiO led to the formation of NiFe2O4 in the passivation film, which greatly promoted its corrosion resistance to the molten fluoride salts.
