Study on the Preparation and High Temperature Oxidation Resistance of Mo(Si,Al)2 Layer on the Mo Surface

A layer of Mo (Si,Al)2 was prepared on the sample surface of Mo substrate by powder coating method using Al-Si mixed powder and then diffusion reaction in argon atmosphere at 900°C. The results of oxidation resistance showed that the Mo samples coated with the Mo (Si,Al)2 layer had an excellent oxidation resistance in air even at 1200°C. The reason of oxidation resistance is the formation of a dense alumina film on the sample surface. Therefore, the further oxidization of the sample can be prevented. In addition, The formation of Mo5(Si,Al)3 layer was also observed at the interface between the Mo substrate and the Mo (Si,Al)2 layer.
