          Abstract

          El acero ferrítico T91 ha sido ampliamente utilizado en plantas de generación de energía eléctrica, calderas y plantas nucleares. Sin embargo, su resistencia a la oxidación se ve gravemente afectada a temperaturas superiores a los 600ºC. En esta investigación se empleó la técnica de cementación empacada para aluminizar un acero T91 y se encontraron las condiciones óptimas para la formación de un recubrimiento libre de porosidad y con espesor uniforme (300 micras). Se evaluó la capa de óxido formada luego de una exposición a 800ºC en atmósfera de aire. La caracterización del recubrimiento y de la capa de óxido (Al2O3) se llevó a cabo empleando un microscopio electrónico de barrido (SEM), Espectroscopia de Rayos X (EDX) y mapping. Se comprobó una buena resistencia a la oxidación del acero T91 aluminizado, debido a la formación de una fina capa continua de óxido de aluminio de aproximadamente 6 micras de espesor luego de una exposición de 7 días.

          T91 ferritic steel has been widely used in traditional power generation plants, boilers and nuclear power plants. However, its oxidation resistance is significantly reduced at temperatures above 600ºC. This research focused on the application of pack cementation technique to aluminize a T91 steel and optimum conditions were identified to diffuse a coating with uniform thickness (300 microns) and free of porosities. The oxide layer grown after oxidation at 800ºC in air was evaluated. Characterization of the coating and the oxide layer (Al2O3) was carried out by using SEM, EDX and mapping. The results show a good oxidation resistance of the aluminized T91 steel, owing to the growth of a continuous thin layer of alumina with an average thickness of 6 microns after 7 days oxidation.
