The kinetic factors of the liquid–solid interface formation process are extremely useful in the
design of composite preparation methods and the manufacture of comprehensive …

Good wetting and low reactivity of metal/ceramic couples are key factors in many
technological processes, in particular in metal/ceramic joining, to avoid degradation of …

After a brief presentation of thermodynamics and kinetics of non-reactive wetting, the recent
results and theoretical developments concerning the reactive wetting of solids by liquid …

The wettability of molten Al x CoCrCuFeNi (x is from 0 to 1.5, mol.%) high-entropy alloys
(HEA) on a WC substrate was measured using a modified sessile drop method at 1823 K in …

From results obtained over the last 10 years from simple reactive metal/ceramic model
systems, a concept of reactive wetting has been formulated which suggests a direct relation …

The wettability of ceramic and metallic solids by liquid metals is discussed with emphasis on
the effect of interfacial reactions on the spreading kinetics and the final degree of wetting …

The wetting of TiC by liquid aluminum and magnesium under static argon between 800 and
1000° C is studied using the sessile drop technique. Extensive interfacial reaction occurs …

The purpose of this paper is to present progress made since 1998 in understanding and
modeling reactive wetting in metal/ceramic systems. The paper focuses on the two …

The wetting of α-SiC by molten Al and Al–Si alloys was investigated using a dispensed
sessile drop method in a high vacuum. In the Al–SiC system, representative wetting stages …

Abstract The Cu-Ni system is a typical dissolutive system due to its mutual dissolution across
a wide range of temperatures and compositions. We characterized the effects of Ni …
