Abstract
The influence of preoxidation and of the presence of HCl or of char deposits upon the high temperature corrosion of MA 956 in simulated coal-gasification environments has been studied at 700°C for periods up to 2000 h. The corrosion of the blank material produced mixed Al-Cr sulfide-oxide scales, while preoxidation led to the development of alumina scales well adherent to the substrate which were quite protective since no sulfide formation was observed even after 1000 h exposure to the sulfidizing gases. On the contrary, HCl produced a significant enhancement of the corrosion rate of the bare alloy : however, preoxidation was able to afford a reasonable degree of protection even in this case. Coal chars had little effect on the corrosion in the absence of HCl.
