Stress Generation in Tantalum During Oxidation

Abstract: Thin rectangular specimens of tantalum were oxidized on one side at 500°C and 1 atm oxygen pressure. From curvature measurements, the bending stresses arising as a consequence of the oxidation process were determined and correlated with known oxidation rate behavior and oxide morphology. The simplest stress model, that of a uniform film on a substrate, was shown to be an inadequate description of the stress source, thus reflecting the complexity of the tantalum‐oxygen reaction. A model relating the stress grad… Show more

“…The pentoxide appears to grow adherently on the metal surface, apparently under considerable compressive stress (21). These stresses eventually cause the oxide to break away from the metal (6), and oxidation starts immediately on the freshly exposed surface.…”

“…The action of the lateral or Poisson strain components during even one-dimensional flexure of thin specimens is sufficient to alter the stress Sg by a factor of 1/ (1-v2) (22), where v is Poisson's ratio. The Poisson's ratio of nickel is 0.336 (29).…”

“…First, the localized surface Ta 2 O 5 scale can experience basic/acidic dissolution to form TaO 3 − or Ta 4 O 11 2− /Ta 5+ ions, and the reactions can generate a large number of volatile products, thus fracturing the corrosion scale and leading to the generation of defects in it, such as pores and cracks. Second, the transformation from Ta to oxides can cause a huge volume expansion; for example, based on the crystal parameters of Ta, Ta 2 O 5 , and Na–Ta–O, one Ta atom transforming to Ta 2 O 5 , NaTaO 3 , and Na 2 Ta 4 O 11 expands the volume by 2.59, 3.63, and 3.06 times, respectively, leading to a stress generated in the corrosion scale and at the Ta interface . As the scale thickness increases, the stress in the corrosion scale increases; thus, the corrosion scale breaks and detaches from the surface when the stress increases to a certain level (Figure e,f).…”
