Some of the important principles that determine the establishment, growth and long-term
maintenance of protective Cr 2 O 3, Al 2 O 3 and SiO 2 scales on hightemperature iron …

Titanium matrix composites reinforced by TiB whiskers and La2O3 particles are synthesized
in a consumable vacuum arc remelting furnace by an in situ technique based on the reaction …

Thin brittle layers are deposited or developed on component surfaces for a variety of
reasons. In many practical applications the layers are stressed by internal residual stresses …

Cyclic oxidation of β-NiAl alloys doped with different reactive elements (REs) each of which
had an optimized concentration was investigated. All of REs effectively suppressed growth …

The oxidation of hydrogen on Ni/yttria-stabilized zirconia (Ni/YSZ) is studied by impedance
spectroscopy. The active thickness obtained is 20 pm or less. Conditions such as …

Two commercial oxide dispersion strengthened alumina-forming FeCrAl alloys, Inco alloy
MA956 and Kanthal alloy APM, were studied in order to look at the effect of reactive …

The common problem of low strength-ductility matching prevails in near-α high-temperature
titanium matrix composites (TMCs). In this work, the design strategy of ultrafine grains and …

A single-phase (Ni, Pt) Al coating with lean addition of Zr was prepared by co-electroplating
of Pt-Zr composite plating and subsequent gaseous aluminization treatments. Isothermal …

Yttrium was diffused into the surface layer of FeCr alloy using an electrodeposition–thermal
method via yttrium nitrate solution and diffusion annealing at 1000° C. Y-doped FeCr …

Cr–Al–N hard coatings exhibit considerable oxidation resistance due to the formation of
stable, dense α-(Al, Cr) 2O3 mixed oxide scales, which makes them promising candidates …
