    Temperature Effects on the Oxidation of Low Carbon Steel in N2–H2–H2O at 800–1200 °C

    A low carbon, low silicon steel was reacted with flowing N2–H2–H2O gases at temperatures of 800–1,200 °C, to produce scales of fast-growing wüstite, the only stable iron oxide under these conditions. Scaling kine...
