This chapter primarily reviews the nature of water vapour when it presents in bulk gas. The change in a ratio between water vapour and corresponding dissociated hydrogen, which determine the thermodynamic stability of the oxide formation, is analysed when the oxidation kinetics are linear and parabolic. When water vapour reaches the solid/gas interface, chromium species volatilisation and oxidation controlled by surface reaction can occur. The adsorbed water vapour can be further incorporated into the oxide possibly in the form of hydrogen defects. The role of these defects on altering the defect structure of the oxide is discussed. Finally, characteristics of the oxide scale on stainless steels formed in the atmosphere containing water vapour are reviewed.

This chapter is dedicated to the description of high temperature oxidation of both chromia and alumina forming alloys. The defect structures of iron and chromium are firstly reviewed. The effects of elements on stainless steel oxidation behaviour are further addressed. For the chromia-forming stainless steel, the oxidation rate is reduced with the increased silicon content but not in a monotonic manner. Titanium and niobium can reduce breakaway oxidation of Fe–18Cr–10Ni austenitic stainless steel. Titanium can enhance the adhesion of scale to the Fe–18Cr by mechanical keying effect of TiO2 formed at the steel/scale interface. For the alumina-forming stainless steel, the formation of alumina and its transformation during oxidation are reviewed. Chromium can be added to reduce the critical aluminium content in the steels in order to form alumina at high temperatures. The addition of reactive elements with appropriate level can improve scale adhesion and reduce the steel oxidation rate. Refractory element like molybdenum can increase strength of material but also accelerate the oxidation rate of the steels containing reactive elements. The development of new alumina-forming austenitic alloy grades is finally described.

The porous Al2TiO5/Al2O3 composites were fabricated by reactive sintering at 1500-1700 °C in nitrogen atmosphere. The starting materials Al2O3 and TiO2 were mixed in an equimolar ratio and the addition of AlN was 5-40 mol%. The effects of AlN content and sintering temperature on phase composition, linear shrinkage, pore sized distribution, porosity and microstructure were investigated. The XRD results showed that the composites mainly consist of Al2TiO5 while the peak intensity of Al2O3 increased with AlN content. The median pore sizes decreased with increasing AlN content and were in the range of 2- 6 lm, 1-2 lm, 0.4-0.7 lm, and 0.3-0.5 lm for composites using 10, 20, 30, 40 mol% AlN, respectively. The porosities of ATN10 and ATN20 were from 20% to 10% at 1600 °C to 1700 °C while the porosities of ATN30 and ATN40 were almost constant in between 11 and 13%. The addition of AlN effectively decrease the grain size of Al2TiO5 and led to reduce microcrack at the grain boundary.
