Abstrakt: In the present study, two commercially available Ni-base superalloys, namely Rene 80 which contains Ti and IN 792 containing Ti and Ta, were investigated during isothermal oxidation at 1,050°C in Ar–20% O2 gas up to 50 h. It was found that IN 792 showed a slightly lower oxidation rate as compared to Rene 80. Also differences in oxide scale microstructures and thicknesses were found. Both alloys formed qualitatively similar oxide scales consisting of outer TiO2 on top of a Cr2O3 scale and internally oxidized Al2O3. The IN 792 formed a thinner oxide scale in general as well as a thinner outer TiO2 scale. Also the depth of the internally oxidized Al2O3 precipitates is smaller in case of IN 792. These findings were correlated with the formation of TiTaO4, which in turn hampered outer Ti and inward oxygen flux. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
