摘要
Relaxation of the stresses, produced by high-temperature oxidation, is analyzed in terms of its influence on the morphology and spalling resistance of the alumina scales on Fe-Cr-Al heat-resistant alloys. Despite a general belief that stress relaxation is a beneficial factor in oxide adherence, several types of scale failure are shown to occur as a direct result of stress relaxation. These failure modes include: cracking of the alumina scale under thermally induced tension during re-heating; "sub-critical" buckling and spalling during cooling; and spalling promoted by stress-driven morphological changes in the scale. The importance of the rate of temperature change, the substrate compliance, and the oxide-metal interface morphology is emphasized. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
