2. 1. Emerging mechanisms of FeCrAl(RE) oxide scale formation and permeation from 1st principles

   Author : Vedad Babic; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Abstract : Alumina forming alloys are important for high temperature applications due to the high stability of the alpha-Al2O3 scale which forms above 900 C. FeCrAl(RE) alloys are alumina formers with small additions of reactive elements, RE e.g. Y, Zr, Hf and Ce, added to improve among others oxidation behavior and scale adhesion. READ MORE

4. 2. Nitrogen and Water in High Temperature Corrosion - Insights from First Principle Calculations

   Author : Vedad Babic; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; DFT; alumina; nitridation; corrosion; chromia; hydrogen;

   Abstract : Service life-time of alloys used in high temperature applications is often limited by corrosion. FeCrAl(Re) alloys are partially designed to form a protective α-alumina oxide scale at elevated  temperatures in order to mitigate further oxidation. READ MORE
