Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention provides an alloy for overlay welding with which an alumina barrier layer containing an Al oxide can be formed on a projection that is overlay welded on an inner surface of a reaction tube, and a reaction tube having a projection that is overlay welded on the inner surface as a stirring member. An alloy for overlay welding according to the present invention is an alloy for overlay welding that is to be used in overlay welding, and the alloy contains C in an amount of 0.2 mass % to 0.6 mass %, Si in an amount of more than 0 mass % to 1.0 mass %, Mn in an amount of more than 0 mass % to 0.6 mass % or less, Cr in an amount of 25 mass % to 35 mass %, Ni in an amount of 35 mass % to 50 mass %, Nb in an amount of 0.5 mass % to 2.0 mass %, Al in an amount of 3.0 mass % to 6.0 mass %, Y in an amount of 0.005 mass % to 0.05 mass %, wherein Y/Al is 0.002 or more to 0.015 or less; and the balance being Fe and inevitable impurities.
