The effect of rare earths deposited on steel surfaces, by different processes (sol/gel, electrophoresis, OMCVD), on high temperature corrosion behavi…

1993

Abstract In this paper, different methods of rare earth oxides deposition on the surface of AISI 304 steel are described: sol/gel, electrophoresis in aqueous or organic medium, OMCVD of rare earth β-diketonates. After the deposition, all the samples were reheated. This treatment was absolutely essential for a strengthening effect of the protective oxide scale. Oxidation of coated and non-coated samples was performed under isothermal and cyclic conditions. The effect of rare earth deposition is significant in isothermal conditions. However, in thermal cyclic conditions, the effect of a rare earth deposited on surface is spectacular. Scale spallation is then completely avoided under the chose…

NaCl induced corrosion of Ti-6Al-4V alloy at high temperature

2016

International audience; This paper presents a study on the Ti-6Al-4V behaviour in presence of NaCl deposit under dry and moistair environments at 560◦C. The results evidence a detrimental effect of the NaCl deposit with a synergisticeffect in presence of moist air environment. Treatments under dry and moist air with NaCl deposit for600 h, lead respectively to weight gains per unit area 5 and 15 times higher than observed under classicoxidation in dry air. Enhancement of the corrosion phenomenon is attributed to the presence of gaseousmetal chlorides, leading to the establishment of an active corrosion process.

Harmonic emission at microwave frequencies in YBa2Cu3O7 single crystals near Tc

1998

Abstract Nonlinear microwave emission by YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7 single crystals is investigated at temperatures close to T c . Second- and third-harmonic signals are studied as a function of the temperature and input power, for different values of the external magnetic field. The results are discussed in the framework of a phenomenological theory based on the two-fluid model which assumes that both the microwave and static fields perturb the partial concentrations of the normal and condensate fluids. It is suggested that, at temperatures very close to T c , this mechanism is the only one responsible for the harmonic emission by YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7 single crystals in the Meissner state. It is also effect…

Temperature Effects on the Phonon Spectrum in YBa2Cu3O7 Single Crystals and Thin Films

1989

We have performed a detailed investigation of the temperature dependence of the 385cm-1 phonon in single crystals and thin films of the YBa2Cu3O7 superconductor by means of Raman spectroscopy. In the single crystal the frequency of this phonon shows a downshift of about 5 cm-1 on passing the superconducting transition from above, which is referred to a strong electron-phonon interaction in the superconductor. The shift of the phonon in thin epitaxial films on MgO or SrTiO3 substrates is only about 2.5 cm-1. This difference may be a result of a structural transition in the single crystal which is possibly suppressed in the films because of the epitaxy. The electron-phonon interaction is also…

Evaluation of a new Cr-free alloy as interconnect material for hydrogen production by high temperature water vapour electrolysis: Study in cathode at…

2012

International audience; For economic and ecological reasons, hydrogen is considered as a major energetic vector for the future. Hydrogen production via high temperature water vapour electrolysis (HTE) is a promising technology. A major technical difficulty related to high temperature water vapour electrolysis is the development of interconnects working efficiently for a long period. Working temperature of 800 degrees C enables the use of metallic materials as interconnects. High temperature corrosion behaviour and electrical conductivity of a new Cr-free Fe-Ni-Co alloy were tested in cathode atmosphere (H-2/H2O) at 800 degrees C. The alloy exhibits a poor oxidation resistance but an excelle…

Optimisation of metallic interconnects for hydrogen production by high temperature water vapour electrolysis

2012

For economical and environmental reasons, hydrogen is considered as a major energetic vector for the future. Hydrogen production via high temperature water vapour electrolysis (HTE) is a promising technology. A major technical difficulty related to high temperature water vapour electrolysis is the development of interconnects working efficiently for a long period. Working temperature of 800°C enables the use of metallic materials as interconnects. Chromia forming alloys are among the best candidates. The interconnect material chosen in the present study is a ferritic stainless steel with 18% chromium content. High temperature corrosion resistance and electrical conductivity of the alloy was…

Influence of the mode of introduction of a reactive element on the high temperature oxidation behavior of an alumina-forming alloy. Part I: Isotherma…

2004

Several routes of yttrium introduction were applied to test the high temperature oxidation performance of a FeCrAl alloy. Isothermal oxidation tests were described in a previous paper (Part I of this paper in this journal, 2004, 55, 352). Cyclic oxidation tests were performed in air under atmospheric pressure on blank specimens, Y 2 O 3 sol-gel coated-, Y 2 O 3 metal-organic chemical vapor deposited (MOCVD)-, yttrium ion implanted-alloys, as well as on a steel containing 0.1 wt.% of yttrium as an alloying element. For the 20 hours cycles, all the samples, except FeCrAl-0.1Y, exhibit weight losses after a few cycles, indicating drastic spallation of the oxide scales. The MOCVD coated specime…

Reactive Element (Y,Ce) Effect on Stresses Determined In-Situ during Iron Oxidation at 800°C

2001

In-situ stress determinations by X-ray diffraction have been performed during pure iron oxidation (p(O 2 ) = 2 x 10 -3 Pa, T = 800°C). On yttrium implanted specimens the stress level is close to zero before oxidation. On CeO 2 coated specimens, the initial compressive stress due to surface polishing is not modified by the coating. During oxidation, the in-situ compressive stress value determined in the Fe (1-x) O scale, is not strongly dependent upon the reactive element nature. Nevertheless, the stress evolution during cooling and residual stresses determined after cooling to room temperature are very different. Blank and CeO 2 coated specimens show relatively high compressive stresses whe…

Influence of Chlorine, Sulphur and Water Vapor on High Temperature Corrosion of Fe, Cr, Ni Alloys for Waste Incinerators

2006

The behavior of three different materials with respect to their Fe, Cr, Ni contents have been studied between 450°C and 700°C, in waste incinerators combustion conditions, where it occurs a main influence of chlorine, sulfur and water vapor. This works analyzes the behavior of these materials which depends on their capability to form melted compounds and on the nature of these melted phases. Also as the corrosion mechanism is influenced by the presence or missing of any corrosive species, the study focalizes on the specific influence of SO2 and alkaline chorine. Effect of additive ashes on the corrosion behavior of tested materials is also studied. The mechanism of corrosion in waste incine…
