Abstract The oxidation kinetics of iron-carbon base alloys in the eutectoid and eutectic range was studied at 760°C for durations up to 1000 min. Special attention was paid to the effect of graphite morphology and carbon content. In order to differentiate the oxidation of carbon from the oxidation of the metallic matrix, two simultaneous but separate thermogravimetric methods were employed. The metallic oxidation rate law for the 0.8% alloy is parabolic, whereas that for the eutectic alloys is linear. The lowest total weight gain was obtained in the 0.8% C alloy.
