Oxidation Behaviour of Plasma Sprayed Carbon Nanotubes-Alumina Coated ASME-SA213-T291 Boiler Tube Steel
Abstract
In this research work, oxidation behaviour of Carbon Nanotubes reinforced Al2O3 coated ASME-SA213-T91 boiler tube steel specimens were investigated at 900°C temperature in air. The different CNTs-Alumina composite coatings were deposited using plasma spray technique and NiCr was used as bond coat before applying CNTs-Al2O3 coatings. The hot corrosion studies were conducted on all coated specimens in air at 900°C under cyclic conditions. The thermogravimetric technique was used to establish kinetics of corrosion. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy/energy-dispersive x-ray analysis (SEM/EDAX), Xray mapping techniques were used to analyse the corrosion products. The CNTs reinforced Alumina coatings enhance resistance to corrosion significantly.
