Oxidation kinetics of four Ni-Cr alloys and a high-purity nickel standard was determined under isothermal conditions in an air atmosphere. In addition, weight gains of the alloys were measured during a simulated pre-oxidation treatment. The alloys' behavior suggests that mechanisms of oxidation vary with temperature and alloy composition.
