Electrochemistry and SEM analyses were used to prepare and analyse the corrosion test. Both the nickel-rich matrix and the alumina scale formed during preoxidation seemed to remain stable during the corrosion test contrary to some of the chromium carbides initially present in the columnar microstructure of the alloy. The use of X-ray tomography coupled with SEM observation revealed a preferential dissolution of the chromium carbides connected to the alloy/salt interface. X-ray tomography reveals a chromium carbides network enabling a deep molten salt infiltration within the alloy due to their preferential dissolution. Molten salt infiltration in the dissolved carbides network then leads to the oxidation of aluminium present in the alloy into a mixed MgAl<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub> spinel.

In situ environmental TEM (ETEM) provides high spatial (nano- to atomic- scale) and temporal (< 0.1 s) resolution to investigate the early-stage oxidation/corrosion dynamics of metals and alloys. Thin samples with facets are widely used to enable cross-sectional observation of the oxidation dynamics in ETEM. However, how different facet orientations oxidize under the same conditions, and how these facets change the oxidation process, has not been investigated before. Using in situ ETEM, we systematically compare the oxidation dynamics of Cu(001) thin films, with faceted holes exposing {100} and {110} facets at temperatures ranging from 250–600 °C under 0.03 Pa O<sub>2</sub>. Oxidation preference is observed to change, from Cu(110) facets at lower temperatures to Cu(100) facets at ~ 500 °C. Oxide growth mechanisms change from outward growth on Cu<sub>2</sub>O surfaces at low temperatures, to inward growth on Cu-Cu<sub>2</sub>O interfaces at high temperatures. At high temperatures (500–600 °C), a rod-like Cu<sub>2</sub>O morphology is observed, with side facets of ~ {024} and top facets of {100} on Cu(100). This differs from the square-shaped Cu<sub>2</sub>O exposing {110} facets formed on Cu(001) surfaces. Rod-like oxides exhibit directional growth along their lengths with linear growth rates, regardless of rod length and width. This suggests that O from Cu(001) surfaces, rather than Cu(100) facets, serves as an O source for oxide growth. These results show a direct comparison of oxidation at different orientations with temperature, underscoring the temperature dependence of oxidation preference. Our results also suggest future in situ ETEM experiments viewing oxidation corrosion cross-sectionally should be cautious when oxide size is comparable with sample thickness, as the oxidizing mechanism may change due to sample thickness.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":724,"journal":{"name":"Oxidation of Metals","volume":"101 5","pages":"1237 - 1248"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141883035","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
