Abstract

The oxidation resistance of austenitic stainless steels modified with various aluminum contents was investigated. The weight gain per unit area is in parabolic relation to oxidation time, and the oxidation rate significantly decreases with increased aluminum content. Outer layer oxides of austenitic stainless steel transform from Cr2O3 to a composite oxide layer comprising Cr and Al, and more dense Al-containing oxides formed with increasing the added Al contents. Since the diffusion of element Al is enhanced and the diffusion of element Cr is inhibited, the oxides enriched in Al dramatically contribute to the improved oxidation resistance of austenitic stainless steels at high temperature. The possible oxidation mechanisms are also proposed based on microstructural observations.
