High temperature corrosion of low alloyed steel in air and salt mist atmospheres

The aim of this work has been to show the influence of air oxidation and salt mist corrosion on the behaviour of low alloyed steels 18K (K18), 16M (16Mo3), 15HM (13CrMo4-4) and finally 10CrMo9-10 (10H2M) employed in the Polish energy sector. The e...
