Abstract

The present study investigates the fireside corrosion behavior of selected superheater materials, namely: T24, P92, VM12-SHC, A800HT, and 7RE10 under oxy-coal combustion atmospheres. Data on mass change, scale thickness, metal loss, surface morphology and micro-structural characteristics of corrosion products were obtained. The alloy specimens were analyzed by SEM-EDX, light microscopy and X-Ray diffraction techniques. The results after 2000 hours of exposure at a metal surface temperature of 600 °C indicate that metal wastage increased with decreasing Cr-content under oxy-coal conditions.
