Abstract
The formation of Al2O3 + Fe nanocomposites (in the range 0–20 wt % Fe) in the course of three sequential processes, such as dispersion, compaction, and sintering at a temperature of 1573 K, is investigated. It is revealed that the sintering is accompanied by the formation of the spinel phase at interfaces. It is demonstrated that the composition of the sintered samples corresponds to an equilibrium composition at a temperature of approximately 1073 K and that the spinel phase serves as a barrier layer preventing oxidation of iron
