Susceptibility to hot corrosion of four nickel-base superalloys, NASA-TRW VIA, B-1900, 713C and IN-738

The susceptibility to hot corrosion of four nickel-base, cast superalloys has been studied at 900 and 1000 C. The test consisted of coating alloy samples with known amounts of Na2SO4 and oxidizing the coated samples isothermally in 1 atmosphere of slowly flowing oxygen, the weight-gain being monitored on a sensitive recording microbalance. Susceptibility to hot corrosion decreased in the order of decreasing molybdenum content of the alloys. Preoxidation of samples before hot-corrosion testing markedly increased the induction period observed prior to the inception of hot corrosion for all alloys tested. X-ray diffraction analyses of the oxide scales were made. All samples that underwent hot corrosion showed the presence of a (Ni,Co)MoO4 layer near the alloy-oxide interface. Several specimens displayed resistance to hot corrosion and these showed NaTaO3 as a prominent feature in their oxide scale. Our results may be interpreted as indicating that molybdenum in an alloy is detrimental, with respect to hot corrosion, while tantalum is beneficial.

Elucidating the role of $\mathrm{Fe}$-$\mathrm{Mo}$ interactions in the metal oxide precursors for Fe promoted $\mathrm{Mo/ZSM}$-5 catalysts in non-oxidative methane dehydroaromatization

Literature shows that adding Fe as a separate phase to MoO 3 /ZSM-5 catalysts can improve benzene selectivity in methane dehydroaromatization (MDA), but only when added in small quantities, making it difficult to characterize the state of Fe in the catalyst and understand the role of Fe-Mo interactions on the catalytic properties. We explore how the nature of the Mo-Fe interactions in the catalyst precursor can influence the stability and product selectivity in MDA, by employing for the first time Fe 2 (MoO 4 ) 3 /ZSM-5 as a catalyst precursor in MDA. We have compared the activity of Fe 2 (MoO 4 ) 3 /ZSM-5 with monometallic MoO 3 /ZSM-5 and mixed MoO 3 + Fe 2 O 3 /ZSM-5 containing equivalent Mo and Fe loadings and found that Fe 2 (MoO 4 ) 3 /ZSM-5 shows higher benzene selectivity than the mixed MoO 3 + Fe 2 O 3 /ZSM-5 catalyst and exhibits higher stability in reaction compared to the monometallic MoO3/ZSM-5 catalyst. Structural characterization suggests that Fe 2 (MoO 4 ) 3 partially segregates to Fe 2 O 3 and amorphous MoO x during thermal pretreatment. The MoO x species migrate into the zeolite channels during pretreatment, while Fe oxides remain on the external surface of the zeolite. Gas adsorption/desorption techniques and density functional theory calculations demonstrate that the preexisting Fe 2 O 3 phases on the external surface of the zeolite in the mixed MoO 3 + Fe 2 O 3 /ZSM-5 precursor trap (MoO 3 ) 3 clusters preventing them from migrating into the zeolite channels during pretreatment, whereas gradual formation of amorphous MoOx together with the segregation of the Fe 2 O 3 phase when using the Fe 2 (MoO 4 ) 3 precursor diminishes trapping of (MoO 3 ) 3 and consequently enhances migration and anchoring of the MoO x species in the zeolite channels, boosting selectivity to benzene. Characterization of used catalysts suggests that the presence of Fe promotes formation of structured carbon nanofibers which reduce the rate of catalyst deactivation.
