Abstract
In the paper the formation patterns of two-phase regions during the internal oxidation process in low-alloyed binary alloys is studied. The goal of the research is the creation of a mathematical model for the internal oxidation process, which is to describe the kinetics of formation and evolution of internal oxidation zones, the study of the patterns governing the two-phase zone formation during internal oxidation, the study of the space-time dynamics of the structural parameters of the two-phase area, namely the number of the oxide particles, their average radius and the phase volume, at different stages of the internal oxidation zone evolution. The two-phase process of diffusion saturation with light components applied to binary alloys is analyzed theoretically. The conditions for formation of disperse oxide particles are formulated. A mathematical model for the formation of two-phase areas as well as the numerical solution for the system of equations describing the kinet- ics of formation and evolution of the two-phase area for different values of the process parameters is proposed. The modeling and experiments demonstrate that the distribution of structural parameters of the two-phase area has complex, non-monotonous nature. The influence of the main parameters of the process on the kinetics of the formation of the two-phase area in a lightly-alloyed binary nickel-based alloy plate is also determined. All stages of the plate’s oxidation process are studied – from the inception of the particles to the coalescence of second-stage particles. The results of the work could be used for developing new technologies in thermal and chemical-thermal treatments for disperse strengthening of materials using internal oxidation, as a physical basis for seeking ways of providing certain distributions of the internal oxidation zone structural parameters, which are required to give the al- loy a necessary set of physical and mechanical properties. The comparison of the modeling and experimental results shows a good correlation, which allows them to be recommended for developing new technologies in disperse strengthening, new heat-resistant steels, disperse-strengthened magnetic materials and electrotechnical alloys.
