Thermal and Chemical Stability of Micron Aluminum Powders Subjected to Gaseous Water

Article Preview

Abstract:

The paper studies the impact of gaseous water on the stability of micron aluminum powders in time at room temperature using the method of gravimetric analysis. The stability was studied using methods of thermal analysis during heating up to 1200 °С in air. The composition of products was analyzed using X-ray diffraction analysis. It was found out that the stability of micron aluminum powders depends on partial pressure of water vapor: the increase of pressure results in decreased stability of powders. The work gives recommendations for storing micron aluminum powders.
