Abstract

The sulfidation behavior of Fe20Cr and Fe20Cr0.7Y alloys in H2–H2S atmospheres at 700 and 800°C was determined by thermogravimetry. Isothermal measurements were carried out and the sulfidation kinetics were evaluated from the mass gain vs. time curves. The reaction products were examined in a scanning electron microscope and the compositions of micro-regions were determined using energy dispersive spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. Yttrium addition increased the sulfidation resistance of the FeCr alloy.
