Study of Thermal Diffusion on Oxidation Resistance of ZG40Cr24

Article Preview

Abstract:

Based on heat resistant steel ZG40Cr24, test alloys were cast by intermediate frequency induction furnace with non-oxidation method by alloying of aluminium and silicon. The oxidation resistance at 1100°C for 500 hours of test alloys was carried out according to oxidation weight gain method. The thermal diffusion were tested by Laser Heat Conductivity. The thickness of oxide scale was detected by Coating Thickness Meter. Experimental results showed that the thermal diffusion of oxide scale affected its oxidation resistance exactly, the lower thermal diffusion coefficient matched the higher oxidation resistance. The oxide scale thermal diffusion coefficient of ZG40Cr24+2%wt.Si+4%wt.Al was only 0.00092cm2.s-1, endowing itself 0.0633g.m-2.h-1 oxidation weight gain rate, reaching the complete oxidation resistance. The mechanism of the effect of thermal diffusion on oxidation resistance lay in that the lower thermal diffusion represented the inert inner particles of materials, the few quantity of diffusion particles, and lower transporting and moving rate. So the oxidation rate slowed down, realizing higher oxidation resistant property for oxide scales.
