Abstract
Many types of diffusional transformation involve creep of the matrix phase as a process in series with the diffusion of reactants. These include discontinuous precipitation, some classes of continuous precipitation, and internal reactions such as oxidation. Here, work on displacement reactions, diffusional barrier breakdown, and internal oxidation are summarized. While bulk diffusion is sufficiently slow for creep to be rate controlling in some cases, the system adjusts in all cases so that reactant diffusion is rate controlling.
