The metastable phase diagram of the BCC-based ordering equilibria in the Fe-Al-Mo system has been calculated via a truncated cluster expansion, through the combination of Full-Potential-Linear augmented Plane Wave (FP-LAPW) electronic structure calculations and of Cluster Variation Method (CVM) thermodynamic calculations in the irregular tetrahedron approximation. Four isothermal sections at 1750 K, 2000 K, 2250 K and 2500 K are calculated and correlated with recently published experimental data on the system. The results confirm that the critical temperature for the order-disorder equilibrium between Fe(3)Al-D0(3) and FeAl-B2 is increased by Mo additions, while the critical temperature for the FeAl-B2/A2 equilibrium is kept approximately invariant with increasing Mo contents. The stabilization of the Al-rich A2 phase in equilibrium with overstoichiometric B2-(Fe,Mo)Al is also consistent with the attribution of the A2 structure to the tau(2) phase, stable at high temperatures in overstoichiometric B2-FeAl.

By using the time-differential perturbed angular correlation technique, the electric field gradients (EFG) at (181)Hf/(181)Ta and (111)In/(111)Cd probe sites in the MoSi(2)-type compound Ti(2)Ag have been measured as a function of temperature in the range from 24 to 1073 K. Ab initio EFG calculations have been performed within the framework of density functional theory using the full-potential augmented plane wave + local orbitals method as implemented in the WIEN2k package. These calculations allowed assignments of the probe lattice sites. For Ta, a single well-defined EFG with very weak temperature dependence was established and attributed to the [4(e)4mm] Ti site. For (111)Cd probes, two of the three measured EFGs are well defined and correlated with substitutional lattice sites, i.e. both the [4(e)4mm] Ti site and the [2(a)4/mmm] Ag site.

Empregamos a técnica de Dinâmica Molecular para estudar propriedades de defeitos pontuais nos compostos intermetálicos ZrNi e Zr2Ni. Descrevemos as configurações estáveis de defeitos e mecanismos de migração, assim como as energias envolvidas. Os potenciais interatômicos foram derivados do Embedded Atom Model. No intuito de levar em conta a variação de estequiometria causada pela presença de alguns tipos de defeitos em intermetálicos, apresentamos um método numérico que fornece a energia efetiva de formação de defeitos e aplicamos o método ao ZrNi e Zr2Ni. Os resultados mostraram que vacâncias são mais estáveis na sub—rede do Ni, com energia de formação de 0,83 e-0,61 eV em ZrNi e Zr2Ni, respectivamente. Vacâncias de Zr são instáveis em ambos compostos; elas decaem espontaneamente em pares anti—sítio e vacância de Ni. Configurações e energias de formação de intersticiais também foram calculadas e mostraram comportamentos similares. Em ZrNi, a migração de vacâncias ocorre preferencialmente nas direções [025] e [100], com as respectivas energias de migração 0,67 e 0,73 eV, e é um processo essencialmente bidimensional no plano (001). Em Zr,Ni, a migração de vacâncias é unidimensional, ocorrendo na direção [001], com energia de migração de 0,67 eV. Em ambos compostos a presença de defeitos de anti—sítio de Ni diminui a energia de migração da vacância de Ni em até 3 vezes e facilita a movimentação em três dimensões. Mecanismos de anel não são energeticamente eficientes em comparação com saltos diretos. As configurações estáveis de intersticiais em ambos compostos consistem em um átomo de Ni sobre o plano (001) entre dois vizinhos de Zr fora do plano. Intersticiais de Zr são instáveis e tendem a deslocar um átomo de Ni, ocupando seu sítio. Energias de deslocamento foram estudadas através de simulações de irradiação de ambos compostos. Durante o processo de colisão binária, um potencial universal ZBL foi usado para colisões a curta distância. Para distâncias intermediárias usamos um potencial de união arbitrário. Zr mostrou—se mais difícil de ser arrancado de seu sítio do que Ni. Encontramos valores de energia de deslocamento no intervalo de aproximadamente 29 eV até 546 eV. Alguns resultados experimentais são mostrados e apresentam boa concordância com os cálculos.

Thermogravimetry, Differential Scanning Calorimetry and other analytical techniques (Energy Dispersive X-ray Analysis; Scanning Electron Microscopy; Mapping Surface; X-ray Diffraction; Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy and Cold Vapor Generation Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy) have been used to study the reaction of mercury with platinum foils. The results suggest that, when heated, the electrodeposited Hg film reacts with Pt to form intermetallic compounds each having a different stability, indicated by at least three mass loss steps. Intermetallic compounds such as PtHg4, PtHg and PtHg2 were characterized by XRD. These intermetallic compounds were the main products formed on the surface of the samples after partial removal of bulk mercury via thermal desorption. The Pt(Hg) solid solution formation caused great surface instability, attributed to the atomic size factor between Hg and Pt, facilitating the acid solution's attack to the surface.

Thermogravimetry (TG) energy dispersive X-ray microanalysis (EDX), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), mapping surface, X-ray diffraction (XRD), inductively coupled plasma emission spectroscopy and atomic spectroscopy with cold vapor generation have been used to study the reaction of mercury with platinum-rhodium (Pt-Rh) alloy. The results suggest that, the electrodeposited Hg film reacts with Pt-Rh to form intermetallic compounds of different stability, when heated indicated by at least four weight loss steps. Intermetallic compounds as PtHg4 and PtHg2 was characterized by XRD. These intermetallic compound are the main product presents on the surface of the samples after remotion of the bulk mercury via thermal desorption techniques. (C) 2002 Elsevier B.V. B.V.

Aluminium alloy (AA) 2024-T3 is an important engineering material due to its widespread use in the aerospace industry. However, it is very prone to localized corrosion attack in chloride containing media, which has been mainly associated to the presence of coarse intermetallics (IMs). In this work the corrosion behaviour of aluminium alloy 2024-T3 in low concentrated chloride media was investigated using microscopy and electrochemical methods. SEM observations have shown that intermetallics with the same nominal composition present heterogeneous reaction rates, and that both types of coarse IMs normally found in the AA 2024-T3 microstructure corrode. Moreover, EDS analyses have shown important compositional changes in the corroded IMs, evidencing the selective corrosion of their more active constituents and the onset of an intense oxygen peak, irrespective to the IM nature. TEM/EDS observations on non-corroded samples have evidenced the heterogeneous composition within the IMs. On the other hand, the results of the electrochemical investigations, in accordance with the SEM/EDS observations, have evidenced that IMs corrosion dominates the electrochemical response of the alloy during the first hours of immersion in the test electrolyte. © 2009 by NACE International.
