Modeling Investigation of the Oxidation Kinetics of Copper and Aluminum Alloys

Article Preview

Abstract:

The oxidation kinetics of copper or aluminum added with magnesium was investigated by a modified Chou model. The effect of the addition of magnesium in copper or aluminum was discussed. The calculation results showed that the activation energy of CuMg0.34 was the highest among Cu-Mg alloys at 600-900 °C, which indicated that it had the best oxidation resistance in all of the samples. The aluminum alloy AA3004 containing 1.0 wt.% Mg showed the better anti-oxide behavior than AA5182 with 4.0 wt.% Mg, and the relation between oxidation rate and oxygen partial pressure could be expressed as 0.71 times power law.
