The oxide-scale growth and metal loss kinetics during oxidation in air of 2 1/4 Cr-1 Mo steel were studied at 600, 700, and 800°C for times up to 1000 h, with cylindrical specimens similar to creep test pieces. The scale thickness (x) was observed to exhibit a gradually decreasing growth rate with the exposure time (t) according to approximated parabolic behavior of type at the temperature levels of 700 and 800°C. The coefficient exhibited Arrhenius-type temperature dependence with an activation energy value of 212 kJ/mol. At 600°C, parabolic behavior was not verified, and the scale thickness growth follows better a relation of type The metal thickness (y) was observed to exhibit a gradually decreasing loss rate with the exposure time according to parabolic behavior of type at the three temperature levels. The coefficient also exhibited Arrhenius-type dependence with an activation energy value of 215 kJ/mol. These two values of are close do the value for diffusion of iron on the chromium-rich internal oxide layer formed in the material. Based on the equations of metal loss kinetics, the variation of the cross-sectional area of the specimens with time could be determined and plots of stress enhancement factors developed to assess the effect of oxidation on creep testing results.
