Kinetics of Nucleation and Growth in Two-Phase Electrochemical Reaction of LixFePO4

Abstract The oxidation of tungsten and molybdenum occurs by two consecutive reactions, forming first a suboxide then the trioxide. Tantalum and columbium oxidize by four simultaneous reactions: solution of oxygen in the metal, nucleation and growth of a suboxide phase at the metal surface and two phase boundary processes giving rise to two different modifications of the pentoxide. By assuming that all reactions are first order complex chain reactions, rate equations are formulated giving the rate of oxidation as a function of pressure, temperature and time. Regression rate expressions for the metals tungsten, tantalum and columbium above 700 C are given as;; and, respectively. The rate is expressed in cm/hr, T is in degrees K and Po2 in atmospheres pressure of oxygen. 3.8.4, 2.1,1, 6.3.5, 6.3.16, 6.3.13

Kinetics Of

Partially-stabilized ZrO2 (PSZ) ceramics have considerable potential for advanced structural applications because of their high strength and toughness. These properties derive from small tetragonal ZrO2 (t-ZrO2) precipitates in a cubic (c) ZrO2 matrix, which transform martensitically to monoclinic (m) symmetry under applied stresses. The kinetics of the martensitic transformation is believed to be nucleation controlled and the nucleation is always stress induced. In situ observation of the martensitic transformation using transmission electron microscopy provides considerable information about the nucleation and growth aspects of the transformation.

The distribution kinetics of 35 2-furylethylene derivatives in two-phase system 1-octanol-water was investigated. The transport rate parameters in direction water-1-octanol (l1) and backwards (l2) are partition coefficient P = l1/l2 dependent according to equations l1 = logP - log(βP + 1) + const., l2 = -log(βP + 1) + const., const. = -5.600, β = 0.261. Importance of this finding for assesment of distribution of compounds under investigation in biosystems and also the suitability of the presented method for determination of partition coefficients are discussed.

Diffuse Coating

In the paper the author presents the results of tests defining the characteristics of behaviour of Sandelin steel in the high-temperature galvanizing process. The growth kinetics of hot-dip zinc coatings on the substrate of 0.05% Si steel in the temperature range of 540-580°C has been established. The structure of the coatings and their phase composition have been developed and the chemical composition of structural components of the coating has be defined. It has been determined that the coating is composed of a compact layer δ1 and an area of a two-phase mixture of δ1 and Zn. The conducted tests confirmed the presence of phase Γ1 , which does not form a continuous layer but it forms individual precipitates which are irregular in shape. The growth kinetics of the coating indicates that an increase in temperature causes a decrease in the coating thickness, which might prove that dissolving processes prevailed over the processes of diffuse coating growth.

Cascade Damage

ABSTRACTThe effect of inhomogeneous nucleation and growth of cavities near grain boundaries illustrates the failure of the standard rate theory to describe the kinetics of phase transformations in irradiated materials under cascade damage conditions. The enhanced swelling observed near grain boundaries is believed to result from the competition between the diffusional growth of cavities and their shrinkage due to the interaction with mobile interstitial clusters. Swelling rates associated with the two processes behave in a radically different way as a function of the size of growing cavities. For a spatially homogeneous distribution of cavities this gives rise to the saturation of swelling in the limit of large irradiation doses.We investigate the evolution of the population of cavities nucleating and growing near a planar grain boundary. We show that a cavity growing near the boundary is able to reach a size that is substantially larger than the size of a cavity growing in the interior region of the grain. For a planar grain boundary the magnitude of swelling at maximum is found to be up to eight times higher than the magnitude of swelling in the grain interior.
