Abstract The modes of interaction of erosion and high-temperature oxidation, occurring simultaneously on an alloy surface, have been studied using Ni-30Cr, MA754, Ni-20Al, and Co-22Cr-11Al-0.2Y alloys to examine the influence of chromia and alumina scale formation on the erosion of nickel and cobalt base alloys. The results have shown that, in the presence of a rapidly flowing oxidizing gas stream, the evaporation of volatile metal oxides becomes important at lower temperatures where normally it can be ignored. Otherwise, the erosion and oxidation of alloys parallels the behavior of pure metals but also introduces additional factors derived from lengthening of the period of transient oxidation and modification of concentration profiles in the alloy adjacent to the alloy/scale interface. Higher erosion intensities extend the transient oxidation behavior which adversely affects the formation of protective scales. As with pure metals, the presence of erosion and oxidation together always produced increased rates of degradation.
