The codeposition of two or more elementli in II halide-activated cementation pack is inherently difficult because of large differences in the thermodynamic stabilities for tlreir volatile halides. However, through II computer-assisted analysis of the pack equilibria, combiniltions of suitable masteralloys and activator salts can be identified. The codepositwn of chromium plusaluminum or chromium plus silicon by pack cementation has yielded diffusion coatings with excellent resistance to higll-tempemtureoxidation and corrosion fora wide range of alloy substrates.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
