AbstractThis study was carried out to evaluate a series of ceramic coatings in a sulfidation atmosphere containing 99% synthetic air and 1% H2S (vol.%) under a flow rate of 50 mL/min. The study was carried out at 773.15 K for 336 hours (heating rate 278.15 K/min). Chemically resistant glass enamels based on SiO2-B2O3-TiO2-Na2O compounds were deposited on the surface of 16Mo3 (16M) low-alloyed steel. Kinetic data were recorded periodically every 168 hours; macro- and microanalyses using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), phase analyses using x-ray diffractometry (XRD) and chemical composition using energy-dispersive x-ray spectrometry along with EDS x-ray mappings were carried out to observe the degradation process of the sulfidized coatings. The results indicated that some of the ceramic coatings exposed in the harsh atmosphere at 773.15 K for 336 hours showed a high degree of protection.
