Abstract The scale existent at the initiation of breakaway oxidation kinetics for an Fe-9Cr-1Mo alloy, as oxidized in 1% CO-CO2 at 600°C, is chemically and microstructurally characterized by the transmission electron microscopy of cross-sectional specimens. The relative importance of chemical and mechanical instabilities in the history of the scale development is thus deduced and the importance of changes in the CO/CO2 ratio at the inward growing interfaces of the scale emphasised.
