Abstract: In the present work, the oxidation behavior of two commercial Ni-base superalloys, CMSX-4 and CM247, in synthetic air with and without 2 vol.% SO2 at 1050°C has been studied. The corrosion reactions in the presence of SO2 could not be explained simply in terms of the contents of the main scale‐forming alloying elements, Cr and Al. The far better resistance of CMSX-4 is related to the formation of a rather pure and dense alumina scale after a very short period of transient oxidation. Rapid development of an alumina scale prevents access of molecular SO2 to the metal surface thus effectively suppressing internal sulfidation. In contrast, CM247 with a similar Al-content formed an Al-rich oxide scale with local intrusions and/or inhomogeneities caused by the underlying alloy microstructure, which deteriorated its resistance to internal sulfidation and resulted in rapid failure in synthetic air + 2% SO2.
