Oxidation Behavior of Grcop-84 (Cu-8cr-4nb) at Intermediate and High Temperatures
Series:
The oxidation behavior of GRCop-84 (Cu-8 at %Cr-4 at %Nb) has been investigated in air and in oxygen, for durations of 0.5 to 50 hours and temperatures ranging from 500 to 900 C. For comparison, data was also obtained for the oxidation of Cu and NARloy-Z (Cu-3 wt% Ag-0.5 wt% Zr) under the same conditions. Arrhenius plots of those data showed that all three materials had similar oxidation rates at

The oxidation behavior of GRCop-84 (Cu-8 at %Cr-4 at %Nb) has been investigated in air and in oxygen, for durations of 0.5 to 50 hours and temperatures ranging from 500 to 900 C. For comparison, data was also obtained for the oxidation of Cu and NARloy-Z (Cu-3 wt% Ag-0.5 wt% Zr) under the same conditions. Arrhenius plots of those data showed that all three materials had similar oxidation rates at high temperatures (> 750 C). However, at intermediate temperatures (500 to 750 C) GRCop exhibited significantly higher oxidation resistance than Cu and NARloy-Z. The oxidation kinetics of GRCop-84 exhibited a sharp and discontinuous jump between the two regimes. Also, in the high temperature regime GRCop-84 oxidation rate was found to change from a high initial value to a significantly smaller terminal value at each temperature, with progress of oxidation; the two different oxidation rates were found to correlate with a porous intial oxide and a dense final oxide, respectively.
