Effect of Sc Addition on High-Temperature Oxidation Performance of Al-Li Alloy

Aluminum–lithium alloys were treated by high-temperature oxidation. The oxidation kinetics were analyzed by oxidation weighing. The surface morphology of the oxidized samples was observed by FESEM scanning electron microscopy. A phase analysis of the oxidized alloys was conducted by XRD. The outcome...

description Aluminum–lithium alloys were treated by high-temperature oxidation. The oxidation kinetics were analyzed by oxidation weighing. The surface morphology of the oxidized samples was observed by FESEM scanning electron microscopy. A phase analysis of the oxidized alloys was conducted by XRD. The outcomes demonstrate that the aluminum–lithium alloy with a Sc element is oxidized at a high temperature under the same conditions, improving the high-temperature oxidation resistance, the weight increase from oxidation is minimal, and the oxidation kinetic reaction index is decreased. The resulting oxidation product is Li<sub>2</sub>CO<sub>3</sub>. The addition of a Sc element can prevent the movement of metal cations, improve the high-temperature oxidation resistance of Al–Li alloy to a certain extent, and the resulting oxide film is more complete and compact.
