Zusammenfassung:High-temperature oxidation phenomena play a crucial role in steel production and processing. The development of new alloying concepts, the modification of production routes due to the decarbonization of steelmaking, and increasing quality demands will additionally stimulate research activities on high-temperature oxidation. Within the scope of this publication, the oxidation behavior of an unalloyed steel was investigated by means of thermogravimetric (TG) and metallographic analysis. The TG measurements were performed with a simultaneous thermal analyzer in combination with a water vapor generator and a mass spectrometer for quality control. Experiments were conducted in a temperature range from 900 to 1200 °C under various oxidation atmospheres, containing synthetic air and water vapor, with different linear flow rates of the oxidizing medium. According to the thermogravimetric data, an evaluation method is introduced to obtain direct kinetic data for linear and parabolic scale growth. The influence of the experimental parameters on high-temperature oxidation is discussed in detail.
