The motivation for transitioning away from zirconium-based fuel cladding in light water
reactors to significantly more oxidation-resistant materials, thereby enhancing safety …

Geological aqueous fluids operate in a wide range of temperatures (from 0 to 1000 C) and
depths (from Earth surface to~ 10s km), over which the physical-chemical properties of water …

As part of a project to investigate the volatilities of so-called “moderately volatile elements”
such as Zn, In, Tl, Ga, Ag, Sb, Pb, and Cl during planetary formation, we began by re …

Growth and microstructure of a protective or nonprotective SiO 2 scale and the subsequent
volatilization of scale formed on high‐purity chemical vapor deposited (CVD) SiC and …

The oxidation kinetics of CVDSiC were monitored by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) in a
50% H2O/50% O2 gas mixture flowing at 1.4 cm/s for temperatures between 1200” and …

In combustion environments, volatilization of SiO2 to Si‐O‐H (g) species is a critical issue.
Available thermochemical data for Si‐O‐H (g) species were used in the present study to …

At high temperatures, SiC and Si3N4 react with water vapor to form a SiO2 scale. SiO2
scales also react with water vapor to form a volatile Si (OH) 4 species. These simultaneous …

A high‐pressure burner rig was developed to evaluate the response of chemical‐vapor‐
deposited SiC material during exposure to simulated gas turbine combustor conditions …

Calcium‐and aluminum‐rich inclusions (CAIs), chondrules, dark inclusions and matrices in
certain CV3 carbonaceous chondrites appear to have been modified by different degrees of …

The vaporization of chromium species from chromia scales limits the applicability of chromia-
forming steels at high temperatures and is one of the major reasons for degradation in the …
