Abstract

Understanding the mode of interaction between borosilicate melt and Inconel is important for long time usage of melter pot in vitrification plant. The present study shows that significant elemental exchanges take place across the borosilicate melt/Inconel interface resulting in the development of (Fe, Ni)CrO4 needle and (Fe, Ni)Cr2O4 cubic phases. This results in significant depletion of Cr within Inconel near the interface. Beside these, CrB precipitates formed along the Inconel grain boundaries.
