Smart oxygen diffusion barrier based on IrAl alloy
Abstract
Ir should be used as an effective oxygen diffusion barrier (ODB) for ultrahigh temperature structural materials since Ir exhibits extremely low oxygen diffusivity. Oxidation resistance of Ir is, however, not good due to formation of gaseous oxide, IrO{sub 3}, over 1,390K. In this study, the improvement of oxidation resistance was aimed through alloy design of alloying with Al. IrAl is expected to form a self-healing multifunctional layered structure composed of Ir layer as ODB and Al{sub 2}O{sub 2} layer as a protective oxide (PO) on the Ir layer. Ar arc-melted IrAl alloy was crushed into powder, followed by hot pressing and heat treatment to remove Ir formed by eutectic reaction. Oxidation behavior was measured using thermogravimetry (TG) and differential thermal analysis (DTA) under the conditions of (1) dynamic heating of 0.167K/s and (2) isotherms at 1,273K to 1,673K in O{sub 2} environment. It was found that oxidation resistance is much improved by alloying with Al and that the designed structure (PO/ODB) is formed on the IrAl substrate. Compressive mechanical properties were investigated from RT to 1873K: both the strength as a function of normalized temperature and specific strength are higher than those of pure Ir, NiAl, TiAl and Ni{sub 3}Al.more »
