Abstract: This research examines the oxidation behaviour of SMAW and TIG weldment in 2.25 Cr-1Mo (T22) boiler tube steels after exposure to air at 900°C under cyclic conditions. Weight gain/area has been plotted against number of cycles to identify the kinetics of oxidation. Scanning electron microscopy/energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM/EDX) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques were used to analyze the oxidation products. The results reveals […]
