1. Oxidation kinetics of nickel particles
Abstract : Nanoparticles have an immense surface to volume ratio. This is a key factor to the new properties of some materials made up of such particles. The oxide layer formed on all materials will have a large influence on the behaviour of these materials. The layer isadvantageous in some cases but causes problems in other. READ MORE

2. Initial Oxidation Kinetics of Al(111): A Monte Carlo Study
Abstract : Almost all metals around us have a thin oxide layer on top of the bulk metal underneath. Often this oxide film protects the metal against further oxidation, or corrosion. Examples are the oxide film that makes stainless steel "stain-less" or the ones on titanium and aluminium alloys, which are very corrosion resistant. READ MORE

3. Performance of High-temperature Coatings : Oxidation and Interdiffusion
Abstract : The use of aluminiferous coatings profoundly improves the service life of superalloys but leads to the microstructural degradation of superalloys and thus the loss of mechanical properties. To solve this trade-off, two strategies were employed in this research. READ MORE

4. Investigations on the Oxidation of Iron-chromium and Iron-vanadium Molten Alloys
Abstract : With the progress of high alloy steelmaking processes, it is essential to minimize the loss of valuable metals, like chromium and vanadium during the decarburization process, from both economic as well as environmental view points. One unique technique to realize this aim, used in the present work, is the decarburization of high alloy steel grades using oxygen with CO2 in order to reduce the partial pressure of oxygen.

5. Initial Oxidation of β-NiAl(Pt) Coatings and Model Alloys
Abstract : The aim of this work was to investigate the oxidation properties of NiAl coatings and model materials during high temperature oxidation. One of the important issues was to elucidate the beneficial role of Pt additions. A better understanding of the involved processes provides a key for the further improvement of the coatings performance. READ MORE
