The hot corrosion behaviors of a single crystal (SC) Ni-base superalloy coated with Na 2 SO 4 and 75 wt.% Na 2 SO 4 -25 wt.% NaCl mixture were studied in air at 900 • C. The results showed that the corrosion productions were laminar structure, porous and easily spalled. And sulfides formed quickly in the deep SC superalloy under the corrosion production. The addition of NaCl into Na 2 SO 4 considerably accelerated the corrosion of the SC superalloy, and the corrosion scale became more porous. The hot corrosion process was explained based on sulfide formation and its subsequent oxidation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
