Abstract
The initial corrosion behaviour of austenitic TP347H exposed to supercritical water was investigated. The early oxidation can be categorized into three stages (rapid oxidation, transitory, and diffusion-controlled stages). Higher temperature resulted in a transformation towards the subsequent stage earlier and less oxidation resistance. Cr6+ species (likely CrO2(OH)2) were only generated on the surface in the very early phase, and then they gradually disappeared as the exposure time increased. Compared with a complete outer Fe-rich oxide layer, the formation priority of a continuous inner Cr-rich layer was observed at 540 °C within 35 h. A corresponding early oxidation process was determined.
