Abstract

The sulfidation behaviour at 973 K in a 30 vol.% H2S-H2-H2O-N2 gas mixture of Fe-25 % at. Al, DO3-ordered alloys, binary or alloyed with niobium, was investigated. Binary alloys presented a quite good sulfidation resistance in comparison with 321 stainless steel, even if a large amount of iron sulfides FeS grew over the alumina layer on corroded samples. The sulfidation resistance of DO3 alloys could be significantly improved by an oxidation treatment prior to corrosion test. The Nb in iron aluminides was supposed to preferably react with S and therefore, to enhance sulfidation resistance through preventing the nucleation and growth of harmful FeS. Unfortunately, the scales of Nb-allloyed FeAl contained only a small amount of Nb3S4 which did not prevent efficiently the formation of iron aluminides FeS. Adding Nb to Fe-25Al even resulted in a severe deterioration of the microstructure during sulfidation due to intense diffusion of S inward the sample.
