Abstract

To clarify the mechanism of the third-element effect in sulphur-containing and sulphur-free oxidation environments, the corrosion behaviours of four kinds of Fe-xCr-ySi (x = 5, 10 at.% and y = 5, 10 at.%) alloys were studied at 600 °C in a H2-CO2 and a H2-CO2-H2S gaseous mixture with the same oxygen partial pressure. The results showed that, in the pure oxidizing atmosphere, thin and slowly growing protective oxide layers were formed on the alloys surfaces. Conversely, all alloys formed a corrosion product layer with an outer layer of FeS and an inner layer of a mix of oxides and sulphides in the oxidizing-sulphidizing atmosphere, which meant that adding Cr into the alloy as the third element had less of an effect on improving the alloy in the harsh sulphidizing-oxidizing environment. The oxidation and sulphidation mechanism as well as the effects of chromium and silicon on the corrosion resistance of the alloys was discussed.
