High-temperature oxidation corrosion parabolic

Mrowec et examined the resistance to high-temperature corrosion of Fe alloys with Cr contents between 0.35 and 74 at% Cr in 101 kPa S vapour. They found that the corrosion was parabolic, irrespective of the temperature or alloy composition, and noted that sulphidation takes place at a rate five orders of magnitude greater than oxidation at equivalent temperatures. At less than 2% Cr, the alloys formed Fe, j.,S growing by outward diffusion of Fe ions, with traces of FeCr2S4 near the metal core. 

Iso-UP has ester bonds only in the main chain where hydrolysis occurs, so a part of reaction products from the main chain dissolves into the solution. While the crosslink formed by styrene remains unaffected because of its stable C-C bonding. As a result, the corroded surface layer resists the diffusion of NaOH solution. This mechanism is just like an oxidation of the metal at high temperature with formation of thick, cohered oxide scale, and can be expressed by similar relation of Wagner s parabolic law as shown in Equation 2. The concept of corrosion in metals can be applied in this case too. 

In part I above, c. Wagner s theory of mixed conduction was reviewed in terms of an equivalent circuit approach. The implications of mixed conduction theory for parabolic scaling of metals in high temperature atmospheres were also detailed. It was pointed out, however, that current interest in mixed conduction theory is no longer motivated by corrosion considerations because far too few systems of practical interest conform to the conditions required for pareibolic oxidation. 

Kim and Jacobson (1987), Jacobson and Kim (1987) and Kim (1989) studied and discussed the corrosion of Nd—Fe-B magnets in a number of solutions such as H2Cr04, HF, H3PO4, and in an autoclave at high temperature. They indicated that the oxidation of the magnets shows parabolic weight gain in dry and humid air at temperatures between room temperature and 423 K, and that the oxidation rate at 423 K is smaller than that at room temperature. This reduction can be explained by the fact that the formation of... 

Chapter 10 deals with high temperature corrosion, in which the thermodynamics and kinetics of metal oxidation are included. The Pilling Bedworth Ratio and Wagner s parabolic rate constant theories are defined as related to formation of metal oxide scales, which are classified as protective or nonprotec-tive. 

High-temperature corrosion is a form of corrosion that does not require the presence of a liquid electrolyte. Sometimes, this type of damage is called dry corrosion or scaling. The first quantitative approach to oxidation behavior was made in the early 1920s with the postulation of the parabolic rate theory of oxidation by Tanunaim and, independently, by Pilling and Bedworth.
