Abstract
The focus in this study is on very metal dusting resistant nickel chromium alloys with a high content of chromium (in the range of 22 to 33 wt.%), additions of aluminum (between 0 and 3 wt.%) and variable iron content (between 0.1 and 15 wt.%). All samples were exposed up to 5693 h at 600 °C in a 37 vol.% CO, 7 vol.% CO2, 46 vol.% H2, 9 vol.% H2O atmosphere at a total pressure 20 bar. The differences between the samples in terms of mass loss, pit depth and incubation time to first pit are evaluated by a statistical analysis and discussed in dependence of alloy composition. Only samples with combined chromium plus aluminum content of about 30 wt.% or more and an iron content of 0.6 wt.% or less do not show any pit formation during the exposure time, even on the edges. In contrast, samples with a similar combined chromium plus aluminum content, but with a higher iron content, do show pit formation due to metal dusting corrosion. © 2019 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
