description | A thorough investigation on the reactions and morphologies of Mg particles and Mg/Teflon/Viton (MTV) during oxidation were conducted via thermal gravity-differential scanning calorimetry (TG-DSC) and scanning electronic microscopy. The results showed that the oxidation of Mg is fast. It merely changed the metallic luster of Mg before 550 °C, and only a few particles changed to a white irregular shape at 600 °C. However, all of the Mg particles oxidized to porous irregular shaped MgO at 650 °C. Herein, the oxidation of Mg particles ended by its melting point, and the whole process is a solid–gas-phase reaction. On the other hand, when MTV reacted in air, the reaction could be divided into two stages: the fluorination of Mg and the oxidation of the exceeded Mg. In the first stage, a dense MgF<sub>2</sub> shell was formed by the solid–solid fluorination. The dense MgF<sub>2</sub> shell could impede the oxidation of Mg. As a result, the oxidation of Mg began after its melting. Furthermore, liquid Mg could vaporize at higher temperature, which could burst out from the MgF<sub>2</sub> shell and react with oxygen. The MgF<sub>2</sub> shell exhibited a dense feature, not only protecting the Mg particles from the heterogeneous oxidation at lower temperature, but also facilitates the homogeneous oxidation at higher temperature. |
