The oxidation and sulfate induced corrosion behavior of an oxide dispersion strengthened nickel base superalloy, MA 6000, has been studied at 900°C and 1000°C. The experimental program involved thermogravimetry. X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The kinetics of high temperature oxidation in air increased with increasing temperature. The experimental activation energy for oxidation in air indicated that a chromia-rich scale formed the protective oxide layer. In the case of sulfate induced corrosion, however, increasing temperature decreased the scale growth rate. This result has been explained by considering the relative stability of nickel sulfide at 900°and 1000°C. Metallographic studies of the scales are also presented.
