Corrosion resistance of low carbon steels in a vanadium, sulfur and sodium environment at high temperatures

摘要

The present invention relates to a ferrous article suitable for use in devices for burning heavy and extra heavy petroleum fuels and a process for forming such an article. The article has a matrix formed from a low carbon steel and a corrosion resistant chromium-aluminum diffusion coating on at least one surface. The coating is formed by subjecting the matrix to successive aluminization and chromization pack cementation treatments.
