Abstract
The oxidation of four Ni-xSi-6Al alloys (x = 0, 2,4 and 6 at.%) has been studied at 1273 K under 0.1 MPa O-2. Silicon exerts the third-element effect by reducing the critical Al content needed for the transition from its internal to its external oxidation with respect to Ni-Al alloys. This result is interpreted by extending to ternary alloys Wagner's criterion for the same transition in binary alloys. (c) 2005 Acta Materialia Inc. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
