2. 1. Atomistic simulation and experimental studies of transition metal systems involving carbon and nitrogen

   Author : Jiaying Xie; Seshadri Seetharaman; Oleg Ostrovski; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Transition metal carbides; Transition metal nitrides; Transition metal carbo-nitrides; Lattice inversion method; Interatomic potential; Atomistic simulation; Metallurgical process engineering; Metallurgisk processteknik;

   Abstract : The present work was initiated to investigate the stability, structural and thermodynamic properties of transition metal carbides, nitrides and carbo-nitrides by atomistic simulations and experimentations. The interatomic pair potentials of Cr-Cr, Mn-Mn, Fe-Fe, C-C, Cr-C, Mn-C, Fe-C, Cr-Fe, Cr-N and Mn-N were inverted by the lattice inversion method and ab initio cohesive energies, and then employed to investigate the properties of Cr-, Mn- and Fe-carbides by atomistic simulations in this work.

   Abstract : In view of the important applications of carbides and carbo-nitrides of transition metals in the heat-resistant and hard materials industries, the thermodynamic activities of Cr and Mn in the Cr-C, Fe-Cr-C, Mn-Ni-C and Mn-Ni-C-N systems have been studied in the present work by the use of the galvanic cell technique. CaF2single crystals were used as the solid electrolyte. READ MORE
