Abstract
The effect of alloying elements like Ti, Al, Cr, V and Mo on the oxidation resistance of Nb at high temperature (between 700 °C and 1400 °C) has been studied. The value of the parabolic oxide growth constants, [MATH], depends on the nature and morphology of oxides formed in the external scale. The growth of protective oxides, like alumina, requires a high content of alloying elements, which usually means a lower melting point and the formation of brittle phases.
