The effect of Al on the high temperature oxidation behavior of Cr-10 wt.%W alloy was investigated using a cyclical oxidation test at 1,000°C in dry air. First, Al was added into the Cr-W alloy as an alloying element up to 8 weight percent. Although alloying with Al reduced the spalling, it did not eliminate it. Secondly, Al was applied to the surface using an aluminizing process. Forming an Al-Cr layer on the Cr-W alloy reduced oxidation rate significantly and eliminated spalling completely.
