摘要

Cast irons intended for high temperature (HT) applications like the SiMo family are widely used in the automotive industry, however further progress in that area requires a thorough understanding of their oxidation behavior. In the present work, measurements of weight gains during cyclic HT exposition (1000 °C in air) of the SiMo5-1 (5 wt. % Si, 1 wt. % of Mo) were explained by microstructure investigation with light, scanning and transmission electron microscopy (LM, SEM, TEM). The results showed that ferrite areas and regions filled with carbides promoted two different oxidation paths. First one triggered formation of amorphous SiO2 layer covered with Fe3O4, while the latter restricted development of the silica diffusion barrier, leading to an accelerated growth of globular Fe2O3 crystallite agglomerates. With time, the oxide scale over ferrite areas thickened and transformed into a mixture of Fe3O4 and α-SiO2 phases, eventually surrounding the globules and slowing down their expansion.
