Effect of pore size on the high temperature oxidation of Ni-Fe-Cr-Al porous metal
This study investigated the effect of the pore size of Ni-22.4%Fe-22%Cr-6%Al porous metal on its hightemperature oxidation. Two types of open porous metals with pore sizes of 800 μm and 580 μm were used. A 24-hour isothermal oxidation test was conducted at three different temperatures of 900 °C, 100...

Summary: | This study investigated the effect of the pore size of Ni-22.4%Fe-22%Cr-6%Al porous metal on its hightemperature oxidation. Two types of open porous metals with pore sizes of 800 μm and 580 μm were used. A 24-hour isothermal oxidation test was conducted at three different temperatures of 900 °C, 1000 °C, and 1100 °C under a 79% N

atmosphere. The results of the BET analysis revealed that the specific surface area increased as the pore size decreased from 800 μm to 580 μm. The high-temperature oxidation results showed that porous metals exhibited far lower levels of oxidation resistance compared with bulk metals, and that the oxidation resistance of porous metals decreased with a decreasing pore size. According to the microstructural observations of the oxide layers, the 900 °C and 1000 °C oxidation layer contained Ni, Cr, and Al oxides mainly on the strut. The 800 μm porous metal strut exhibited similar oxidation behavior at 1100 °C to that found at lower temperatures. In contrast, the 580 μm porous metal strut was found to consist of Ni and Fe oxides in the upper layer and Ni, Cr, and Al oxides in the lower layer, representing a low oxidation resistance. For powders affixed to the strut inside the porous metal, a different oxide-forming behavior from that of the strut was observed. In addition, the Ni-Fe-Cr-Al porous metal high-temperature oxidation microscopic mechanism is also discussed. |
