This study investigates enhancing the high-temperature oxidation resistance of hot-stamped steels by adding the Cr/Mn/Si elements to form an extremely thin oxide layer. Under low oxygen partial pressure conditions and high Cr content in the matrix, the oxide layer of a 38Cr3MnNbVMo hot-rolled plate containing the Mo element and high Si content was further thinned to 0.6 μm after cooling at 900 °C for 5 min. The structure of the ultra-thin oxide layer consists of Fe3O4, Mn oxides, FeCr2O4, Cr2O3, and Fe2SiO4 oxides. Compared to other antioxidant elements, under low oxygen partial pressure conditions, Si is more prone to oxidation, forming ultra-thin (22 nm) Fe2SiO4 oxides at the matrix interface. Combined with Cr2O3, FeCr2O4, and Mn oxides, it collectively inhibits the mutual diffusion of external O ions and matrix Fe ions. Furthermore, the addition of the Mo element improves the oxidation resistance. The synergistic effect of multiple powerful oxidation-resistant elements and oxide products effectively inhibits the growth of the iron oxide scale, enhancing the oxidation resistance of hot-rolled, hot-stamped steel. |
