In this study, the effects of constituent phases on the oxidation kinetics of an Al-7 mass%Mg alloy containing a trace of Ca were investigated. A Mg+Al2Ca master alloy was used to add Mg and Ca simultaneously. Scheil-Gulliver cooling by thermodynamic calculation showed that the addition of Ca led to the formation of Ca-based intermetallic compounds, such as Al4Ca and Laves C36, after solidification. Based on weight increase indicated by the oxidation test and surface analysis, it was found that the presence of Ca-based phases significantly improved the oxidation resistance and slowed down the oxidation rates. Based on the review of phase diagrams with oxygen partial pressure by thermodynamic calculation, it was thought that in the initial oxidation, MgO and MgAl2O4 were formed on the surfaces of the Al–Mg alloys, leading to further oxidation. The Ca-based intermetallic compounds formed Ca–Mg–Al based oxides, which possibly contributed to the formation of a relatively dense oxide layer.

AbstractThe oxidation kinetics of four Fe-Cr-Mn-Ni based steels, utilized in automobile industry, have been studied as a function of temperature (973–1273 K) and oxygen partial pressure (5–105 Pa). It has been shown that the rate of corrosion of these steels under isothermal conditions is determined by diffusion of reagents through the scale, which phase composition and morphology depend first of all on chromium and to some extend also on nickel and manganese contents. The highest oxidation resistance at high temperatures is observed in the case of the X33CrNiMn23-8 steel, containing highest chromium concentration, equal 23.4 wt.% and nickel equal 7.8 wt.%. The remaining three steels with virtually the same chromium content (≈20 wt.%), but lower than that in the first one, show comparable oxidation resistance. Small differences in the oxidation rates of these three steels may be related to different nickel and manganese contents. It has been found also that the rate of corrosion of all steels under investigation does not depend under steady state conditions on oxygen partial pressure.

A self-designed reaction device was used as a promising equipment to investigate the oxidation characteristics and kinetics of rosin pentaerythritol ester (RPE) under UV irradiation. Photo-oxidation kinetics and the initial quantum yield (Φ) of RPE were calculated. The initial oxidation product of the photo-oxidation reaction—peroxide was analyzed by iodimetry. The peroxide concentration is related to the light intensity (I) and the temperature (T), and the increasing T and I would destabilize the RPE by accelerating peroxide forming. Photo-oxidation of RPE follows the pseudo first-order reaction kinetics. The relationship between activation energy and logarithm of light intensity (ln I) is linear, and it is expressed as Ea = −4.937ln I + 45.565. Φ was calculated by the photo-oxidation kinetics, and the average value of Φ was 7.19% in the light intensity range of 200–800 μW cm−2. This research can provide fundamental information for application of RPE, and help obtain a better understanding of the stability of rosin esters.

AbstractThe stoichiometric composition and oxidation rates ( wet or dry ) of plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposited (PECVD) silicon carbide (SiC) films are effected by the deposition conditions of trimethylsilane (3MS) and carrier gas. We report the oxidation kinetics of SiC thin films deposited in a modified commercial PECVD reactor. A standard horizontal atmospheric furnace in the temperature range of 925–1100°C was used in the oxidation. Oxidized films were measured optically by commercially available interferometer and ellipsometer tools in addition to mechanically using a commercially available profilometer. Activation energies of the parabolic rates were in the range of 20.93 to 335.26 kJ/mol.

ABSTRACTSilicon oxidation kinetics in the thin regime are studied by a unique method in which thermally grown as well as densified CVD-deposited oxides are incrementally reoxidized and measured. Strikingly higher oxidation rates are obtained through deposited oxides, as compared to thermal oxides, suggesting that oxidations are suppressed after an initial layer is grown rather than enhanced during initial layer formation. We show that these findings tend to support initial oxidation models based on stress.

A novel apparatus was developed to test the ferrous iron oxidation kinetics of Leptospirillum ferriphilum in predominantly sessile culture, by combining a CSTR under wash-out conditions with a packed bed of inert ceramic saddles. Results indicate that a dense culture of sessile bacteria is established rapidly, which achieves high oxidation rates in all experiments with a yield in terms of CO2 uptake rates comparable or higher to what has been measured in planktonic culture. However, the yield in terms of cell counts changes dramatically, indicating a substantial shift in carbon utilisation in the sessile culture. The apparatus is feasible as a method to study iron oxidation kinetics of sessile cultures, providing it is operated at sufficiently high recycle ratios.
