Abstract
The influence of lithium and tin additives on the mass transfer of diffusing elements during the formation of coatings using diffusion metallization technology from a medium of low-melting liquid metal solutions is examined. It is revealed that the addition of lithium and tin leads to the intensification of the coating formation owing to an increase in the activity of the transport melt. Lithium promotes the reduction reaction of oxide films, which allows for an increase in the intensity of mass transfer and coating formation. The leading role in the removal of oxide films, in the presence of tin in transport melts, is played by the adsorption effect and dispersion of the oxide film under the action of the melt.
期刊介绍:
Inorganic Materials: Applied Research contains translations of research articles devoted to applied aspects of inorganic materials. Best articles are selected from four Russian periodicals: Materialovedenie, Perspektivnye Materialy, Fizika i Khimiya Obrabotki Materialov, and Voprosy Materialovedeniya and translated into English. The journal reports recent achievements in materials science: physical and chemical bases of materials science; effects of synergism in composite materials; computer simulations; creation of new materials (including carbon-based materials and ceramics, semiconductors, superconductors, composite materials, polymers, materials for nuclear engineering, materials for aircraft and space engineering, materials for quantum electronics, materials for electronics and optoelectronics, materials for nuclear and thermonuclear power engineering, radiation-hardened materials, materials for use in medicine, etc.); analytical techniques; structure–property relationships; nanostructures and nanotechnologies; advanced technologies; use of hydrogen in structural materials; and economic and environmental issues. The journal also considers engineering issues of materials processing with plasma, high-gradient crystallization, laser technology, and ultrasonic technology. Currently the journal does not accept direct submissions, but submissions to one of the source journals is possible.
