Oxidation of ASD-4 Powder Modified by V2O5

Аннотация

The sequence of phase formation in the oxidation of ASD-4 aluminum powder modified by vanadium pentoxide during heating in air in the temperature range 873–1073 K has been studied by synchrotron radiation x-ray diffraction. It has been shown that the sharp acceleration of the oxidation of the modified powder is related to the loss of the protective properties of the oxide shell on the particle surface due to the polyvalence of vanadium, which provides structural and phase changes on the surface and in the depth of the oxidized metal.
