Abstract
Based on 18 bulk diffusion couples, the composition-dependent interdiffusion coefficients in the fcc Co-V-Mo alloys at 1273, 1373 and 1473 K were obtained from the intersection points of the diffusion couples by means of EPMA technique coupled with the Whittle and Green method. With the experimentally determined interdiffusion coefficients and the critically reviewed experimental diffusivities available in the literature, the atomic mobilities of fcc Co-V-Mo alloys were assessed by means of Diffusion Controlled Transformation (DICTRA) software. The quality of the assessed atomic mobilities was confirmed by the comprehensive comparisons between various DICTRA-calculated diffusion behaviors and the experimental ones, including concentration profiles and diffusion paths.
