Abstract:
A method and apparatus for forming thermally grown alpha alumina oxide scale on a substrate is provided. The method includes the steps of: a) providing a heating chamber having a heat source and an oxidizing gas source selectively operable to provide a stream of oxidizing gas; b) providing at least one substrate disposed in the heating chamber, which substrate has a composition sufficient to permit formation of an alpha alumina scale on one or more surfaces; c) maintaining a vacuum in the heating chamber at a level that inhibits formation of one or more low temperature oxides on the one or more surfaces of the substrate; d) heating at least one of the one or more surfaces of the substrate to a predetermined temperature at or above 1800 degrees Fahrenheit; and e) directing the stream of oxidizing gas at a controlled rate toward one or more heated surfaces of the substrate.
Abstract:
An objective of the present invention is to provide a rare earth metal-based sintered magnet having imparted thereto sufficient corrosion resistance by an oxidative heat treatment, which is resistant even in an environment of fluctuating humidity, while suppressing the deterioration of the magnetic characteristics ascribed to the oxidative heat treatment, and to provide a method for producing the same. As a means of achieving the objective above, the surface-modified rare earth metal-based sintered magnet of the present invention is characterized in that the surface-modified part comprises a surface-modified layer comprising at least three layers formed in this order from the inner side of the magnet, a main layer containing R, Fe, B, and oxygen, an amorphous layer containing at least R, Fe, and oxygen, and an outermost layer containing iron oxide comprising mainly hematite as the constituent, and the method for producing the same is characterized in that it comprises a step of applying a heat treatment to a bulk magnet body in the temperature range of from 200° C. to 600° C., under an atmosphere with oxygen partial pressure in a range of from 1×102 Pa to 1×105 Pa and water vapor partial pressure in a range of from 0.1 Pa to 1000 Pa (exclusive of 1000 Pa).
Abstract:
An article of titanium or a titanium-based alloy is case hardened by heat treatment at a temperate of 750° C. to 850° C. and at a pressure in the order of atmospheric pressure in a diffusion atmosphere. The diffusion atmosphere consists of a carrier gas such as argon which does not react chemically with the article in the said temperature range, and carbon monoxide. The concentration of carbon monoxide in the oxygen diffusion atmosphere is in the range of 20 volumes per million to 400 volumes per million.
Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a Ni-based alloy article which elutes little Ni even when used in a high-temperature water environment for a long period comprises heating the Ni-based alloy in a carbon dioxide-containing atmosphere for a set period of time at an elevated temperature to form an oxide film comprising chromium oxide on a surface thereof. Using carbon dioxide as an oxidizing gas produces an oxide film of generally uniform thickness along a length of the article being treated so that resistance to nickel elution is more uniform over the entire article.
