Preparation of a disperse Fe–Al–Mo system and production of bulk materials on its base

Abstract

We show the feasibility to prepare a disperse Fe–Al–Mo polymetal system by contact exchange in chloride-containing aqueous solutions. Reaction schemes are suggested to describe the processes that proceed on aluminum microparticles in aqueous solutions where the relevant metal ions are contained. The system is shown to be a precursor for intermetallic compounds, which are generated by high-temperature processes, e.g., spark plasma sintering (SPS).
