In this study, high temperature oxidation and cyclic oxidation behaviors of 310 stainless steel (SS) in the temperature range of 800 – 1100 oC were explored. High temperature oxidation tests were conducted in a tube furnace. The weight gains were measured at different time interval and at specific temperatures with various heating conditions. Post SEM/EDS examinations were also performed for surface morphology, cross-section microstructure and chemical composition analyses. The experimental results showed that 310 SS exhibits a diffusion-controlled parabolic oxidation mechanism, while the oxidation rate decreases with increasing holding time. A significant change in scale surface morphology associated with different types of oxide formation was observed. The cross-section SEM images reveal that the scales mainly exhibit a single Cr-rich oxide layer at the temperature range studied. Internal oxidation with the formation of SiO2 was also observed. Satisfactory adhesion of the scale to the substrate was found for cyclic oxidation at 1000 oC. |
