Abstract

The influence of hot corrosion on low cycle fatigue behavior is studied by conducting fatigue tests at 800 degrees C in air on bare and salt-coated (90%Na2SO4 + 10%NaCl) specimens. This was followed by extensive scanning electron microscopic (SEM) examinations. Significant red-uction in fatigue life is observed across all values of Delta epsilon (t)/2 for the salt-coated specimens in comparison with bare specimens. SEM examination reveals that the fused salt mixture sporadically removes the prot-ective chromium oxide layer and exposes the substrate. Subsequent SEM analysis reveals that severe grain boundary oxidation leads to grain boundary cracking and provides numerous sites for fatigue crack nucleation and growth.
