Chemical and Phase Transformations in the Combustion of a CrO3/AlN Mixture

Resumo

The possibility of combustion of a mixture of chromium peroxide with aluminum nitride is shown experimentally. The effect of initial pressure of nitrogen and ratio of reagents on an average linear burning rate, as well as on a relative mass loss in the combustion of a CrO₃/AlN mixture is studied. The concentration limits of the burning rate of the test mixture are determined. The microstructure and phase and chemical compositions of the combustion products of the chromium–nitride-aluminum mixture are described.
