Alloys of Fe-(5, 10, 15)Al and Fe-(10, 20, 30, 40)Cr were corroded at 700 and $800^{\circ}C$ for 70 hr in either atmospheric air or 1 atm of Ar+$1%SO_2$ gases. In these atmospheres, Fe-5Al and Fe-10Cr alloys displayed poor corrosion resistance. In atmospheric air, Fe-5Al alloys formed oxide nodules, while Fe-10Cr alloys formed thick scales and internal oxides. In Ar+$1%SO_2$ gases, Fe-5Al and Fe-10Cr alloys formed thick, nonadherent bi-layered scales, which grew primarily by the outward diffusion of Fe ions and inward diffusion of oxygen and sulfur ions. By contrast, in atmospheric air and Ar+$1%SO_2$ gases, Fe-(10, 15)Al and Fe-(20, 30, 40)Cr alloys displayed good corrosion resistance by forming $Al_2O_3$ and $Cr_2O_3$ layers on the surface, respectively.

Mechanical alloying using high-energy ball mill and subsequent spark plasma sintering (SPS) process was applied to Al-Fe-Cr and Al-Fe-Mo powder mixture to investigate effects of Cr and Mo addition on thermal stability of Al-Fe, and thereby to enhance its thermal stability up to $500^{\circC}$. Various analytical techniques including micro-Vickers hardness test, SEM, TEM, X-ray diffractometry and corrosion test were carried out. It was found that addition of Cr and Mo to Al-Fe system played a role of grain growth inhibitor of matrix Al and some precipitates such as $Al_3Fe$ during SPS and subsequent heat treatment. The inhibition of grain growth resulted in increased Vickers hardness and thermal stability up to $500^{\circC}$ comparing to those of Al-Fe alloy system.

The microstructure of Al-7Si-0.4Mg-1Fe alloy mainly consists of aluminum dendrites, Al-Si eutectics, and $Al_5FeSi$ needles. When Mn was added to the alloy, the substantial amount of $Al_5FeSi$ phase was changed into Al(Mn,Fe)Si, however the needle-like morphology was almost unchanged. Combined additions of Cr or Sr with Mn to the base alloy resulted in rod-like Al(Mn, Fe,Si)Si phase. The tensile properties of as-cast alloys were enhanced by the Mn addition, especially when it was added with Sr. The tensile properties after T6 heat treatment was a little improved with 0.7%Mn addition, but Cr or Sr additions with Mn didn't show any positive effect on the properties of heat-treated alloys.

The structure of the scale formed on the surface of Fe - Cr - X alloys exposed to 1143K high sulfidation($Ps_2$ = 1.11$\times$$10^-7$ atm, $Po_2$ = 3.11$\times$$10^-20$ atm) or sulfidation/oxidation(($Ps_2$= 1.06$\times$$10^-7$ atm, ($Po_2$ = 3.11$\times$$10^-18$ atm) environment has been observed and analysed using XRD, SEM/EDS. To investigate the possibility of protective film formed on the surface of the alloys, Aluminium, Nickel were selected as alloying elements. Thermodynamic phase stability diagram was used to predict the reaction path of scale formed on Fe - Cr - X alloys. Parabolic rate constant($K_p$) value with 6wt% Al in Fe - 25Cr alloy decreased significantly compared with the Fe - 25Cr alloy without 6wt% Al. Since thin layer of defect free sulfide film, (Al, Cr)Sx, was formed at the alloy/scale interface. Fe - rich sulfide scale at outer layer and Cr - rich sulfide scale containing porosity at inner layer of Fe - 25Cr alloy have been observed. The reaction path for these scales could be predicted by the thermodynamic stability diagram.

NiO catalysts/$Al_2O_3$/FeCrAl alloy foam for hydrogen production was prepared using atomic layer deposition (ALD) and subsequent dip-coating methods. FeCrAl alloy foam and $Al_2O_3$ inter-layer were used as catalyst supports. To improve the dispersion and stability of NiO catalysts, an $Al_2O_3$ inter-layer was introduced and their thickness was systematically controlled to 0, 20, 50 and 80 nm using an ALD technique. The structural, chemical bonding and morphological properties (including dispersion) of the NiO catalysts/$Al_2O_3$/FeCrAl alloy foam were characterized by X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, field-emission scanning electron microscopy and scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive spectroscopy. In particular, to evaluate the stability of the NiO catalysts grown on $Al_2O_3$/FeCrAl alloy foam, chronoamperometry tests were performed and then the ingredient amounts of electrolytes were analyzed via inductively coupled plasma spectrometer. We found that the introduction of $Al_2O_3$ inter-layer improved the dispersion and stability of the NiO catalysts on the supports. Thus, when an $Al_2O_3$ inter-layer with a 80 nm thickness was grown between the FeCrAl alloy foam and the NiO catalysts, it indicated improved dispersion and stability of the NiO catalysts compared to the other samples. The performance improvement can be explained by optimum thickness of $Al_2O_3$ inter-layer resulting from the role of a passivation layer.

This study was carried out to examine the effects of adding 0.3at.%Hf in Fe-30at.%Al-5at.%Cr alloy on the variation of microstructures and hot workability. The effect of hot rolling on mechanical properties was estimated by measuring the elongation and tensile strength after rolling at 800 and 1000 respectively. Microstructure of Fe-30at.%Al-5at.%Cr alloy was consisted of large equiaxed grains and it was changed to quasi-equiaxed or columnar structures by adding 0.3at.%Hf to Fe-30at.%Al-5at.%Cr alloy. Every specimens showed a decreased tensile strength after hot rolling compared to that of before rolling. The elongation was increased by hot rolling. Remarkable changes in elongation by hot rollong was observed such as from 1.4% to 4.5% elongation at the specimen of 0.3at.%Hf added to Fe-30at.%Al-5at.%Cr. Fe-30at.%Al-5at.%Cr alloy showed typical cleavage fracture on tensile failure and hot rolling has negligible effects on fracture mode in this alloy. However at the alloy containing Hf fracture mode was changed by hot rolling from intergranular to mixed intergranular and transgranular fracture mode.

The effects of alloying elements added on the microstructure and high temperature oxidation behavior of the electro-slag remelted Fe-22Cr-5Al alloy were investigated. The amount of casting defect was makedly reduced by the electro-slag remelting. The electro-slag remelted ingot had a directionally solidified structure and cleaner surface than that of air-melted one. The high temperature oxidation reststance was greatly improved by the addition of Be and Zr.

An optimum route to fabricate oxide dispersion strengthened ferritic superalloy with desired microstructure was investigated. Two methods of high energy ball milling or polymeric additive solution route for developing a uniform dispersion of $Y_2O_3$ particles in Fe-Cr-Al-Ti alloy powders were compared on the basis of the resulting microstructures. Microstructural observation revealed that the crystalline size of Fe decreased with increases in milling time, to values of about 15-20 nm, and that an FeCr alloy phase was formed. SEM and TEM analyses of the alloy powders fabricated by solution route using yttrium nitrate and polyvinyl alcohol showed that the nano-sized Y-oxide particles were well distributed in the Fe based alloy powders. The prepared powders were sintered at 1000 and $1100^{\circ}C$ for 30 min in vacuum. The sintered specimen with heat treatment before spark plasma sintering at $1100^{\circ}C$ showed a more homogeneous microstructure. In the case of sintering at $1100^{\circ}C$, the alloys exhibited densified microstructure and the formation of large reaction phases due to oxidation of Al.

A low carbon steel, Fe-2.25%Cr steel (ASTM T22), and Fe-2.25%Cr-1.6%W steel (ASTM T23) were aluminized by hot dipping into molten Al baths. After hot-dipping, a thin Al-rich topcoat and a thick alloy layer formed on the surface. The topcoat consisted primarily of a thin Al layer that contained a small amount of Fe, whereas the alloy layer consisted of Al-Fe intermetallics such as $Al_5Fe_2$ and AlFe. Cr, Mo, and W in T22 and T23 steels reduced the thickness of the topcoat and the alloy layer, and flattened the reaction front of the aluminized layer, when compared to the low carbon steel.

High temperature deformation behavior of Fe-28Al-5Cr alloy has been investigated known to show anomalous temperature dependence of yield strength. Specifically, the effect of Cr addition has been examined. A series of tensile and load relaxation tests have been carried out to obtain the flow behavior of Fe-28Al-5Cr alloy at the elevated temperatures. The flow curves have then been analyzed using the inelastic deformation theory recently proposed. Firstly, high temperature flow stress of iron aluminides can be resolved into internal stress and frictional stress. Secondly, the temperature corresponding to peak strength gets higher level at faster strain rate, which presumably due to the increased contribution of internal stress in observed flow stress. And thirdly, the alloying of Cr seems to cause solid-solution strengthening of frictional stress level and the elevation of 2nd order transition temperature. In this analogy, Fe-28Al-5Cr exhibits better strength especially at relatively higher temperature and lower strain rate than Fe-28Al.
