Pure powders of titanium, aluminium, nickel and ruthenium were mechanically alloyed and melted in a button arc furnace under an argon atmosphere to produce two alloys of composition Ti-52.5Al-10.0Ni (at.%) and Ti-52.5Al-10.0Ni-0.2Ru (at.%). The alloys were then cut and metallographically prepared. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were used to characterize the samples. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) was used to analyze the oxidation behavior from room temperature up to 1050°C. The alloys were also oxidized in air at 1050°C for 120 hours. The Ti-52.5Al-10.0Ni (at.%) alloy formed dendrites of γ-TiAl (55.6 at.% Al) surrounded by a eutectic of γ-TiAl + Al3NiTi2 (τ3) phases. The Ti-52.5Al-10.0Ni-0.2Ru (at.%) alloy formed dendrites of γ-TiAl (53.6 at.% Al) surrounded by a eutectic of γ-TiAl + Al3NiTi2 (τ3). The ruthenium was mostly in solid solution (0.3 at.%) in the Al3NiTi2 (τ3) phase, although traces of it were present in the dendrites (0.1 at.% Ru). When oxidized in air from room temperature to 1050°C, the as-cast Ti-52.5Al-10.0Ni-0.2Ru (at.%) had a mass gain of 0.60% and the as-cast Ti-52.5Al-10.0Ni (at.%) had a mass gain of 0.97%. Isothermal oxidation of both alloys at 1050°C for 120 hours formed mixed metal oxides of TiO2+Al2O3 on the surface.

The oxidation behavior of Fe-20Ni alloy under compressive stress in air was studied at 800, 900 °C. The results examined by using scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) indicates that the oxide scales were consisted of an external scale and a subscale which has an intragranular scale (above 5 h at 800 °C and 900 °C) and an intergranular scale. Compared with the unstressed specimen, the growth kinetics of external scale was accelerated by an applied compressive stress. Besides, the compressive stress induced an increase in the growths of intragranular scale and intergranular scale formed on the specimens oxidized at 900 °C. However, the effect of compressive stress on the growth of intergranular scale and intragranular scale was not obvious in the case of 800°C. In addition, cracks developed in the subscale for the specimens oxidized under 2.5 MPa compressive stress when the oxidation time exceeded 20 h.

AbstractFeCrBAlMo coating was deposited on an AISI 20 steel substrate by high velocity arc spraying (HVAS). Compared with FeCrBSiMo coating and pristine AISI 20 steel, the microstructure and high temperature oxidation behavior of FeCrBAlMo coating were investigated by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. Meanwhile, the bonding strength of the coatings was also measured. The results indicated that both coatings were composed of α(Fe,Cr) and Fe

High temperature oxidation testing was carried out on hot-pressed ZrB2-SiC-graphite composite by using high electric current heating. The composites oxidation behavior was investigated, the temperature of oxidized specimens was above 2000°C. The results found that the UHTC composite was ruptured at oxidized temperature 2055°C. The microstructure of surface and cross-section of posttest samples were investigated by scanning electron microscopy along with energy and X-ray diffraction. The failure mechanism of rupture was also discussed.

The novel Al2O3 / NiCrAlY /alfa2-Ti3Al system obtained by APS technique was tested against long (500h) isothermal oxidation at 850�C in air for prospective use in aerospace applications. EDX-SEM, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman investigations were conducted to substantiate structural, textural and mass gain modifications underwent by the Al2O3 / NiCrAlY /alfa2-Ti3Al system in comparison with bare alfa2-Ti3Al and NiCrAlY /alfa2-Ti3Al system. Improved oxidation resistance of the double-coated system is based on moderate oxygen and thermal barrier role played by the mixture of delta - and alfa-Al2O3 present in the top ceramic coat.

Ti (C,N)-based cermets with varying WC additions (Ti (C0.6N0.4)-36Ni-12Mo-1C-xWC, x = 0, 3, 6 and 9 wt%) were prepared by conventional powder metallurgy techniques. The microstructure and mechanical properties of all four Ti (C,N)-based cermets were investigated. Isothermal oxidation of all four cermets were also investigated in air at 800°C up to 100 h using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX) and X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD). The grains of Ti (C,N)-based cermets became more homogeneous with the increase of WC content. The TRS and fracture toughness increased with the increase of WC content and then decreased when WC content exceeded 6wt%, but hardness decreased continuously with the increase of WC content. The oxide scales formed on the surface of all four samples during the oxidation process were porous and multi-layered, consisting of NiO outerlayer and TiO2 based innerlayer, respectively. The thickness of the oxide scales and oxidation rates increased with the increase of WC content, especially when the content of WC addition reached 9wt%. The cermet with 6wt% WC addition showed excellent mechanical properties and acceptable high temperature oxidation resistance.

AbstractThe oxidation kinetics of forged 12Cr-MoVW steel was investigated in an air (N2+O2) atmosphere at 873-1073 K (Δ50 K) using thermogravimetric analysis. The oxidized samples were characterized using X-ray diffraction, and the surface and cross-sectional morphologies were examined using scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The forged 12Cr-MoVW steel samples exhibited parabolic behavior and a low oxidation rate compared with their as-cast counterparts. A protective oxide layer was uniformly formed at relatively low temperature (≤973 K) for the forged samples, which thus exhibited better oxidation resistance than the as-cast ones. These oxides are considered solid-solution compounds such as (Fe, Cr)2O3.

Ternary alloys, (Fe50−x/2Co50−x/2)Snx(x ≤ 33 at.%), are prepared by mechanical alloying from powder mixtures of the three elements. As-milled alloys are studied by X-ray diffraction and 57Fe and 119Sn Mössbauer spectroscopy. The solubility of Sn in near-equiatomic bcc FeCo is increased from ~0.5 at. % at equilibrium to ~20 at.% in the used milling conditions. The average 119Sn hyperfine magnetic field at room temperature is larger, for any x, than the corresponding fields in mechanically alloyed Fe-Sn solid solutions.

The spark plasma sintering (SPS) microstructure and high temperature oxidation behavior of TiH2-45Al-0.2Si-5Nb(at.%) alloy were investigated.Emphasis was placed on the effect of SPS microstructures, obtained by blend powder and mechanical alloying powder. The mass gain due to oxidation was measured using an electro balance. The oxide layers as well as its micro-structure were examined by SEM and EDS, and XRD. The results show that sintered microstructure of blend powder is composed of fully lamellar TiAl/ Ti3Al phase, and that of the mechanical alloying powder is composed of finer granular TiAl/Ti3Al phase. The latter oxidation rate is lower, and forms continuous mixed oxide layer of Al2O3 and TiO2. Both SPS microstructure of blend powder and mechanical alloying powder are superior in oxidation behavior to ordinary vacuum sintering.
