The high temperature oxidation of Al-Mg alloys is characterized by the rapid formation of thick, micro-crystalline oxide films. The oxidation kinetics of an Al-4.2 wt pct Mg alloy under dry and moist 20 pct O 2/Ar have been measured, and oxide films grown on bulk specimens complementary to the weight gain curves have been characterized using electron optical techniques (TEM, SEM). Initial oxidation takes place by the nucleation and growth of primary crystalline oxides at the oxide/metal interface and by the formation of secondary oxides of MgO by the reduction of the original amorphous over-layer of γ-Al 2O 3 by Mg. Subsequent oxidation is dominated by the further nucleation and growth of primary oxides. The presence of water vapor in the oxidizing environment initially reduces oxidation rates through a modification of the mechanical properties of the amorphous overlayer but does not affect the overall oxidation mechanism. A microstructural model has been developed which describes oxidation of Al-Mg alloys in terms of fracture of the original air-formed film by primary MgO nucleation and growth and modification to this film by the presence of water vapor in the oxidizing environment. 相似文献

Anin situ morphological study of the oxidation of electron transparent specimens of aluminum and aluminum alloys containing zinc and magnesium has been carried out in the temperature range 400 to 520°C using the hot stage of a 1 MeV transmission electron microscope. The structure and morphology of the crystalline oxide produced in each alloy has been carefully examined by selected area electron diffraction and stereomicroscopy. In pure aluminum, oxidation takes place after a temperature dependent induction period, by the nucleation of crystalline γ-Al2O3 at the amorphous oxide/metal interface. This process is delayed by additions of zinc which modify the structure of the oxide. In alloys containing magnesium, oxidation takes place by the rapid nucleation and growth of MgAl2O4 or MgO, with a secondary form of magnesia developing from the reduction of the amorphous γ-Al2O3 surface layer. 相似文献

Oxidation studies were performed at 1100 °C in dry air and air containing fixed partial pressures of water vapor on a number
of alloys and coatings that form α-Al 2O 3 scales under oxidizing conditions. The alloys investigated included RENé N5, PWA 1484, diffusion aluminide coatings (with
and without Pt modification) on RENé N5, and a Ni-8 wt pct Cr-6 wt pct Al model alloy. The water vapor affected the oxidation
of the alloys in three important ways: (1) The scales spalled more profusely during cyclic oxidation in wet air than in dry
air, particularly for those alloys with alumina scales, which are only moderately adherent under dry conditions. The results
were consistent with the mechanism previously proposed (Reference 1), whereby the water molecules decrease the fracture toughness
of the alumina/alloy interface. (2) Thicker oxides are formed during oxidation in wet air than dry air. This effect comes
primarily from accelerated transient oxidation during exposure in wet air. (3) Spinel was found to form on top of the alumina
scales during long-term exposure. This phenomenon occurred in all atmospheres but was much more pronounced for exposures in
wet atmospheres. Mechanisms for the preceding observations are proposed. 相似文献

The feasibility of fabricating fiber-reinforced aluminum alloys by addition of discontinuous fibers to vigorously agitated,
partially solid metal slurries was investigated. In the first phase of the program, reported herein, emphasis was placed on
the study of interface interactions between polycrystalline A1 2O 3 fibers and Al-2 to 8 pct Mg, Al-4.5 pct Cu and Al-4.5 pct Cu-1 to 2 pct Mg alloys. In general, it was observed that the incorporation
of fibers could be readily achieved by this technique, and that fibers appeared wetted after a few minutes of contact with
the melt. The composites produced exhibited an intimate, void free bond between the constituents. In addition, a region of
significantly altered microstructure resulted from accumulation of oxide and/or aluminate particles which either formed within
the melt and were attached to the moving fibers, or used the fiber surface as a substrate to grow on. Microscopic examination
of this interaction zone and thermodynamic considerations indicate that it consists of fine α-Al 2O 3, aluminates, oxides of the alloying elements, and probably some intermetallic compounds. For example, it is shown that a
stable MgAl 2O 4 spinel forms at the interface of A1 2O 3 fibers and Al-Mg alloys. Examination of composite specimens fractured under tension indicated that the interfaces produced
were strong enough to permit the transfer of loads at strengths in the order of 250 to 350 MPa. 相似文献

This study documents laboratory-scale observations of reactions between Fe-Al alloys (0.1 to 2 wt pct Al) with slags and refractories. Al in steels is known to reduce oxide components in slag and refractory. With continued development of Al-containing Advanced High-Strength Steel (AHSS) grade, the effects of higher Al must be examined because reduction of components such as CaO and MgO could lead to uncontrolled modification of non-metallic inclusions. This may lead to castability or in-service performance problems. In this work, Fe-Al alloys and CaO-MgO-Al 2O 3 slags were melted in an MgO crucible and samples were taken at various times up to 60 minutes. Inclusions from these samples were characterized using an automated scanning electron microscope equipped with energy dispersive x-ray analysis (SEM/EDS). Initially Al 2O 3 inclusions were modified to MgAl 2O 4, then MgO, then MgO + CaO-Al 2O 3-MgO liquid inclusions. Modification of the inclusions was faster at higher Al levels. Very little Ca modification was observed except at 2 wt pct Al level. The thermodynamic feasibility of inclusion modification and some of the mass transfer considerations that may have led to the differences in the Mg and Ca modification behavior were discussed. 相似文献

In the directed oxidation of Al-Mg alloys, the amount of MgO that forms in the initial stage prior to the incubation period affects the rate of oxidation of Al to Al 2O 3 in the composite growth stage. The mechanism of formation of MgO and the duration of the initial stage were investigated experimentally and theoretically. The variables studied were total pressure in the reaction chamber, partial pressure of oxygen, and the nature of the diluent gas which affects the diffusion coefficients of magnesium vapor and oxygen in the gas phase. The oxidation rate in the initial stage was proportional to both the oxygen partial pressure and the diffusivity of oxygen. The duration of the initial stage decreased with the increase in oxygen pressure. To understand the role of magnesium evaporation in the oxidation behavior of the alloy, the velocity, temperature, and concentration fields in the gas phase were simulated numerically. The calculated concentration profiles of magnesium vapor and oxygen as a function of time were consistent with the experimentally measured oxidation rates and confirm reaction-enhanced gaseous diffusion-limited vaporization of magnesium in the initial stage of oxidation of Al-Mg alloys. The region where the magnesium vapor is oxidized in the gas phase moved progressively closer to the alloy surface during the initial stage of oxidation. The end of the initial stage and the start of the incubation period corresponded to the arrival of the oxygen front close to the surface when the spinel formation occurred. 相似文献

After the Mg-Y-Ce magnesium alloy was exposed to air at a temperature up to 1173 K for 0.5 hours, the dense and compact oxide
film formed on the surface. Accordingly, oxidation and ignition of magnesium alloys at elevated temperature was successfully
retarded by the Y and Ce additions. Thermogravimetric measurements in air revealed that the oxidation dynamics curves measured
at 673 and 773 K followed the parabolic-line law and the curve investigated at 873 K followed the complicate quartic law.
X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis indicated that the oxide film on the surface of Mg-Y-Ce
alloys exhibited a duplex structure, which agreed with the results of thermodynamic analysis. The oxidation film included
two layers: the outer layer was a multiple structure of Ce 0.202Y 0.798O 1.601 and Y 2O 3, and the inner layer mainly consisted of metal Mg and MgO. 相似文献

The investigations of vanadium vaporization from CaO-SiO 2-FeO-V 2O 5 thin film slags were conducted using the single hot thermocouple technique (SHTT) with air as the oxidizing atmosphere. The slag samples were analyzed after the experiments by SEM/EDX. The vanadium content was found to decrease as a function of time. The loss of vanadium from the slag film after 30 minutes of oxidation was approximately 18 pct and after 50 minutes, it was nearly 56 pct. The possible mechanism of vanadium loss would be the surface oxidation of vanadium oxide in the slag, VO x to V 5+, followed by surface evaporation of V 2O 5, which has a high vapor pressure at the experimental temperature. 相似文献

Several alloys based on Fe-25Cr-6Al and Fe-25Cr-11Al (wt pct) with additions of yttrium, Al 2O 3, and Y 2O 3 have been prepared by mechanical alloying of elemental, master alloy and oxide powders. The powders were consolidated by
extrusion at 1000°C with a reduction ratio of 36:1. The resulting oxide contents were all approximately either 3 vol pct or
8 vol pct of mixed Al 2O 3-Y 2O 3 oxides or of Al 2O 3. The alloys exhibited substantial ductility at 600°C: an alloy containing 3 vol pct oxide could be readily warm worked to
sheet without intermediate annealing; an 8 vol pct alloy required intermediate annealing at 1100°C. The 3 vol pct alloys could
be recrystallized to produce large elongated grains by isothermal annealing of as-extruded material at 1450°C, but the high
temperature strength properties were not improved. However, these alloys, together with some of the 8 vol pct materials, could
be more readily recrystallized after rod (or sheet) rolling; sub-stantially improved tensile and stress rupture properties
were obtained following 9 pct rod rolling at 620°C and isothermal annealing for 2 h at 1350°C. In this condition, the rup-ture
strengths of selected alloys at 1000 and 1100°C were superior to those of competitive nickel-and cobalt-base superalloys.
The oxidation resistance of all the alloys was ex-cellent.

In Al-3 wt pct Mg/Al 2O 3p
(or SiC
p
) composites fabricated by the pressureless infiltration method, the infiltration behavior of molten metal, the mechanical
properties, and the interfacial reactions were investigated. The spontaneous infiltration of the molten Al-3 wt pct Mg alloy
into the powder bed occurred at a relatively low temperature (700 °C for 1 hour under a nitrogen atmosphere). Spontaneous
infiltration of the molten metal is related to the formation of Mg 3N 2 by the reaction of Mg and nitrogen. The tensile strength and 0.2 pct offset yield strength and elongation tend to decrease
with increasing infiltration temperature and time, because of an increased interfacial reaction. In Al-3Mg/Al 2O 3 composites, MgAl 2O 4 was observed at interfaces between Al 2O 3 and the matrix, as well as at oxide films of the Al powder surface. In addition, MgO was observed at interfaces between Al 2O 3 and the matrix. On the other hand, Al 4C 3 was formed at interfaces between SiC and the matrix in Al-3Mg/SiC composites. In addition, MgAl 2O 4 was observed as a reaction product at the interfaces between oxide films of SiC and the matrix, as well as at oxide films
of the Al powder surface. Since the Si released as a result of the interfacial reaction is combined with Mg, age hardening
can occur by the precipitation of Mg 2Si via T6 treatment. 相似文献

The behavior of carbon deposition on preoxidized Fe-Ni alloys containing 0 to 57.0 mass pct Ni in 10 pct CH 4-H 2 mixture at 1203 K was studied by metallography and thermogravimetry. Nickel retarded carburization and carbon deposition
by lowering the solubility limit of graphite in austenite and by reducing catalytic activity for the pyrolytic reaction of
CH 4. On oxidation in air, the addition of nickel to iron depressed the development of FeO and, thereby, caused a significant
decrease in the thickness of the scale. The exposure of the alloys to 10 pct CH 4-H 2 mixture after the oxidation in air led to a sudden mass loss in the early stage and then a rapid mass gain. This mass change
is primarily ascribed to mass loss by reduction of iron oxides and to mass gain by carbon deposition. The rapid mass gain
by carbon deposition is probably due to the formation of active iron by reduction of iron oxides and to the increase in the
reaction area by spallation of the scale; the active iron formed may promote filamentous carbon deposition through Fe 3C formation and decomposition. Carbon deposition on the alloys containing 27.2 mass pct Ni or more was considerably retarded
because of the formation of a thin oxide scale which consists of α-Fe 2O 3 and spinel (Ni xFe 3−xO 4) and the reduction of catalysis by enrichment of nickel in the subscale. However, the amounts of carbon deposition increased
compared with those on the as-polished alloys, owing to the presence of reducible iron oxides. 相似文献

The interface reactions between a-Al 2O 3 particles and 5083 Al-Mg alloys during fabrication by compocasting and subsequent remelting at 800 °C for 30 minutes have
been studied using analytical transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Experimental
results show that MgO is the main reaction compound produced by the reaction 3Mg (1) + A1 2O 3 (s) = 3MgO (s) + 2A1 (1). The MgO crystals formed by interfacial reaction are very small (about 5 to 20 run in diameter),
and the reaction zone is about 50 to 80-nm wide for as-cast materials and about 100 to 150 nm after remelting. The reaction
kinetics is controlled by seepage of Mg and release of Al (1) along the newly formed MgAl 2O 4 or MgO grain boundaries. Because of the large volume expansion during the formation of MgO from the reaction between Mg (1)
and A1 2O 3 and because of the low diffusivity in MgO crystals, the reaction rate is very low. 相似文献

The interfacial structure of a diffusion-bonded Al-4.55 at. pct Mg/SiC interface was examined by conventional and high-resolution
transmission electron microscopy. Formation of Mg 2Si, MgO, and Al 2MgO 4 was observed. The monoclinic Mg 2Si phase formed at the Al/SiC interface, while the oxides MgO and Al 2MgO 4 formed at the monoclinic Mg 2Si/Al interface. It is shown that the formation of these phases can be predicted using simple thermodynamic criteria such
as the relative bond strengths between Al, Si, C, O, and Mg. In addition, precipitation of some equilibrium Al 8Mg 5 precipitate was also observed at the interface. The interfacial structure observed in the Al-Mg/SiC system is contrasted
with that observed in the pure Al/SiC system. 相似文献

The viscosity of smelting slags from the Glogow copper plant in Poland was measured using a concentric cylinder viscometer.
These slags contain typically 45 pct SiO 2, 16 pct CaO, 8 pct MgO, 11 pct Al 2O 3, and only 5 to 7 pct total iron. The viscosity was measured as a function of the CaO, MgO, SiO 2, Cu 2O, Cr 2O 3, and Fe 3O 4 contents in the temperature range from 1473 to 1623 K. Silica and chromium oxide additions increased the viscosity, while
small additions of the other oxides decreased the viscosity. However, at large additions of CaO or MgO, cooling resulted in
a rapid increase in the viscosity upon reaching the transition temperature. This critical transition temperature increased
with increasing additions of CaO and MgO. This was explained by the precipitation of solid particles upon reaching the saturation
limit. Depending on the slag composition, the activation energy for viscous flow was found to be in the range from 200 to
370 kJ/mol. 相似文献

Cyclic oxidation rates of 95 to 97 pct dense, powder-source molybdenum disilicide (MoSi 2) in dry air, wet air, and oxygen have been measured between 400°C and 600°C. Dense MoSi 2 does not disintegrate catastrophically (pest) in these atmospheres for exposure times up to 688 hours. Between 400°C and
500°C, Mo and Si oxidize simultaneously to form amorphous SiO 2, monoclinic Mo 9O 26, and vapor-deposited MoO 3 plates, and the oxidation rate of MoSi 2 in air is influenced by its microstructure, composition, and surface defects. Rapid oxidation obeying a linear rate law occurs
over a narrow temperature range near 500°C, where Mo vapor transport by (MoO 2)
n
species is sufficiently rapid to produce large numbers of surface MoO 3 plates but simultaneously is slow enough to allow nucleation and growth of solid Mo oxides in conjunction with SiO 2. Addition of water vapor to the oxidant stream at 500°C retards nucleation and growth of solid Mo oxides by formation of
MoO 3·H 2O (g), which has a high vapor pressure relative to those of (MoO 3)
n
species. The transition from nonselective oxidation to high-temperature selective oxidation of Si to form a protective SiO 2 layer occurs between 500°C and 550°C. Preoxidation of MoSi 2 at 1200°C creates a SiO 2 barrier layer which prevents further oxidation upon subsequent exposure at 500°C. The oxidation kinetics and microstructural
observations support the model of MoSi 2 pest in which oxidation in pores and cracks is required for disintegration. Based on these results, low-temperature oxidation
phenomena are not expected to restrict the use of MoSi 2 as a high-temperature material.

One of the main concerns in recycling aluminium alloy scrap is the removal of oxide inclusions. Understanding the nature and behaviour of oxide films in the alloy melts is an important step for developing efficient recycling technologies. In this work, characterisation of oxides formed in pure Al and Al?CMg alloy melts was carried out. In commercially pure Al melt, ??-Al 2O 3 platelets and ??-Al 2O 3 particles were found to form at 750 and 920?°C, respectively. The oxides were in the form of liquid-like films consisting of numerous individual particles. The addition of 0.49 and 0.70?wt% Mg resulted in the formation of MgAl 2O 4, and the MgAl 2O 4 particles were {1 1 1} faceted and had a cube-on-cube orientation relationship with ??-Al. The MgAl 2O 4 films were also liquid-like in which large numbers of the particles were held by the melt. Grain refinement was achieved by intensive shearing of the melts prior to solidification. It is believed that intensive melt shearing broke up the oxide films and dispersed the potent oxide particles which in turn enhanced the heterogeneous nucleation, resulting in grain refinement. The potency of the oxide particles and the mechanism of the inoculation by the oxides were discussed on the basis of the TEM results and theoretical analysis of the lattice misfits at the interfaces along specific orientation relationships. 相似文献

High-resolution transmission electron microscopy analyses are carried out to understand the microstructure of the ultra-thin oxide-film grown on a (native) amorphous Al 2O 3-coated Al-0.8 at.% Mg alloy substrate at T = 600 K for t = 2 h and at pO 2 of 1 × 10 ?2 Pa. This oxide-film is found to be non-uniformly thick with thicknesses varying from 1.50 to 4.60 nm. Occasionally, this oxide is found to diffuse into the Al–Mg alloy substrate, forming oxide thicknesses up to 10.5 nm. Overall, this oxide-film is found to consist of a mixed amorphous, (poly) crystalline and an intermediate amorphous-to-crystalline transition regions, with crystalline regions consisting mostly of MgO and the diffused oxide regions into the Al–Mg alloy substrate coated with γ-Al 2O 3. These observations are then compared with the experimental results obtained using angle-resolved X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy analysis and thermodynamic predictions for the growth of an ultra-thin oxide-film due to dry, thermal oxidation of Al–Mg alloy substrates. 相似文献

The mechanical properties of Al-(Mg)-0.5Sc alloys have been investigated. Room-temperature tensile and toughness properties
were found to reflect a superposition of the properties of Al-Mg and Al-0.5Sc alloys and are quite competitive with high-performance
Al alloys. A combination of substructure refinement by Mg and stabilization by Al 3Sc precipitates produces exceptional superplasticity as exemplified by superplastic forming (SPF) elongations in excess of
1000 pct at a strain rate of 0.01 s -1. Overall, these alloys demonstrate an extremely attractive combination of strength, toughness, density, and SPF fabricability. 相似文献

Three γ + β NiCoCrAlY alloys (a cast alloy, a laser-surface-melted (LSM) alloy, and a coating as deposited by electron beam-physical
vapor deposition (EB-PVD)) with similar average composition (Ni-20Co-19Cr-24Al-0.2Y in at. pct), but with different microstructures
prior to oxidation, were oxidized for 0.5 and 1 hours at 1373 K in an Ar 20 vol pct O 2 atmosphere ( i.e., at a partial oxygen pressure of 20 kPa). It was found that on the alloy with β precipitates larger than 20 μm, the oxide
layer was nonuniform in thickness, and had a laterally inhomogeneous composition and phase constitution. In this case, the
oxide layer developed on top of the γ phase was thicker than that formed on top of the β phase and consisted of a NiCr 2O 4/Cr 2O 3 outer and an α-Al 2O 3 inner layer. For the thinner oxide formed on top of the β phase, the outer layer was constituted of a Cr and Co containing
NiAl 2O 4 spinel and the inner layer also consisted of α-Al 2O 3. For the alloys with β precipitates smaller than 3 μm, a uniform and laterally homogeneous oxide formed, consisting of a
Cr and Co containing NiAl 2O 4 outer layer on top of an α-Al 2O 3 inner layer. After oxidation, Y was distributed as numerous, small precipitates within the oxide layer for a homogeneous
Y distribution prior to oxidation, or as a few, very large pegs along the γ/β phase boundaries of the alloy for an inhomogeneous
Y distribution prior to oxidation. The performance of the alloys upon thermal cycling was improved for smaller β precipitates
and for a more homogeneous Y distribution in the alloy prior to oxidation. 相似文献
