On the early stages of oxidation of iron borides
Abstract
Pure Fe2B and FeB powders were compacted and oxidized for 1 h in flowing oxygen in the 300° 450°C temperature range. The reaction products were analyzed by X-ray diffraction, surface Mössbauer spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Thermogravimetric analysis was carried out on powders treated under the same conditions. Iron borides undergo oxidation at low temperatures, with formation of both oxides and oxygen-free products.
