Abstract The okidation of pure Fe and Fe-Ce alloys containing 2 and 5 Ce (atomicfraction,%) has been studied at 600-800℃ in air. The okidstion curves of pure Fe at 600, 700and 800 ℃ follow the parabolic rate law. The oxidation curve of the Fe-5Ce at 800 ℃ followsthe approximately parabolic rate law, but includes two distinct parabolic stages at 600 and 700℃. The Fe-2Ce goes through an appropriately parabolic oxidstion at the three temperatures.The Fe-2Ce and Fe-5Ce alloys are oxidized slower than pure Fe at 700 and 800 ℃ except inthe initial oxidation stage of the Fe-5Ce at 700℃, while go through a faster oxidation thanpure Fe at 600 ℃. Besides three Fe chides, double chide CeFeO3 also forms in the inner part ofthe scale. Nevertheless, only Fe oxides and CeO2 form in the case of the oxidation at 600 ℃Moreover, FeO only accounts for a small part of the total Fe oxides. Additionally, the effect ofCe in the oxidation of the Fe-Ce alloys has been discussed.
