Inverse growth transport in thermal chromia scales on Fe–15Cr steels in oxygen and in water vapour and its effect on scale adhesion
2007
Chromia scales of near equivalent thickness were thermally grown on Fe–15Cr steels in 16O2 followed by 18O2 and in H216O followed by H218O. SIMS oxygen isotope profiles showed that oxidation in oxygen proceeded by outward chromium transport, whereas oxidation in H2O involved inward transport of hydroxide species. Adhesion measurements using room temperature tensile testing could quantify adhesion energy: 20 J m−2 for O2-grown scales and 80 J m−2 for scales formed in H2O, a result of this mass transport inversion.
Crystallization kinetics of amorphous SiC films: Influence of substrate
2005
Abstract The crystallization kinetics of amorphous silicon carbide films was studied by means of X-ray diffractometry (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The films were deposited by radio frequency (r.f.) magnetron sputtering on glassy carbon and single crystalline silicon substrates, respectively. TEM micrographs and XRD patterns show the formation of nano-crystalline β-SiC with crystallite sizes in the order of 50 nm during annealing at temperatures between 1200 and 1600 °C. A modified Johnson–Mehl–Avrami–Kolmogorov (JMAK) formalism was used to describe the isothermal transformation of amorphous SiC into β-SiC as an interface controlled, three-dimensional growth processes fr…
