Model alloys, Fe–20Cr and Fe–20Cr–20Ni (wt%) with and without 1% Si, were exposed to four different gas mixtures Ar–10H2O, Ar–10H2O–0.1HCl, Ar–10H2O–0.1HCl–10CO2, Ar–10H2O–0.1HCl–10CO2–0.5SO2 (vol.%) at 650 °C. The Fe–20Cr and Fe–20Cr–20Ni alloys underwent breakaway corrosion in Ar–10H2O–(0.1HCl)–(10CO2), forming Cr2O3 and Fe-rich oxide nodules. Silicon addition markedly increased corrosion resistance for both alloys by forming an additional SiO2 layer beneath the Cr2O3 scale. Addition of SO2 to Ar–10H2O–0.1HCl–10CO2 significantly suppressed the formation of Fe-rich oxide nodules on Fe–20Cr. Corrosion in the SO2-bearing gas resulted in (Cr, Fe, S)-rich precipitates in all alloys. The ... |
Blast furnace ironmaking produces a reducing and carburizing atmosphere in the blast furnace which may lead to metal dusting. However, there is limited research on metal dusting under this particular atmosphere. This paper investigated metal dusting behaviors of ferritic Fe-(10, 20, 25)Cr and austenitic Fe-20Cr-(20, 33)Ni, Fe-25Cr-20Ni (wt.%) alloys at 550 and 650 °C in an Ar-33CO-7H2-7CO2-2H2O (vol.%) gas simulating a blast furnace operating condition. A relatively short reaction time, up to 100 h, was used to evaluate the initial stage of metal dusting of these alloys in the blast furnace gas condition. Severe metal dusting and coke deposition were observed at 550 °C, while no signi... |
