The corrosion behaviors of a Fe13Cr4Al2Mo1.2Nb alloy were studied in 360 degrees C water and 400 degrees C steam. Similar dual-layered oxide scales were formed under both conditions, but the inner oxide layer was thicker in 400 degrees C steam, indicating steam-accelerated corrosion.
The corrosion behaviors of a Fe13Cr4Al2Mo1.2Nb alloy in 360 degrees C aerated water and 400 degrees C superheated steam were investigated. A similar dual-layered oxide scale was formed under both conditions. However, the inner oxide layer was much thicker in 400 degrees C steam than in 360 degrees C water, indicating the occurrence of steamaccelerated corrosion. Nodular corrosion was observed following exposure to 360 degrees C water, while localized corrosion and Ni segregation along the grain boundary occurred after 120-d exposure to 400 degrees C steam. The Fe2Nb phase experienced delayed oxidation with respect to matrix, which involved transformation from amorphous Nb oxides to crystalline Nb2O5.
