The oxidation behaviour of coupon and spherical specimens of Co‐35 w/o Cr have been studied in the temperature range 900–1300°C and at oxygen pressures from 0.2 to 760 torr. For coupon specimens the oxidation is approximately parabolic at and below 1100°C. Protective scales of Cr 2 O 3 are formed on flat surfaces. Corners and edges show enhanced oxidation, and in these regions the surface oxide also contains CoCr 2 O 4 . Oxidation of spherical specimens is nonparabolic and the oxide scales consist of Cr 2 O 3 , CoCr 2 O 4 , and interspersed particles of CoO. During initial oxidation spherical specimens oxidize faster than coupon specimens.
