The diffusion of carbon into tungsten and molybdenum at low carbon concentrations

  • Published:
Soviet Powder Metallurgy and Metal Ceramics Aims and scope

Summary

The principal diffusion constants of carbon — the preexponential factor D0 and the energy of activation of the process, Q — have been determined with the aid of the isotope C14.

As a result of annealing for 3.5 h in the temperature range 1100–1450°C, carbon was found to penetrate into tungsten and molybdenum to depths of 5 and 40 μ, respectively.
