Abstract
In this study, the mechanism of nonisothermal oxidation of magnesium powder was determined using a tension analysis, which was performed by mathematical modeling and the finite element method. The results revealed that phase transformation of magnesium hydroxide to magnesium oxide in the oxide layer plays an important role in this process so that formation of magnesium hydroxide in the early stages of oxidation (< 450 °C) leads to the formation of compressive stresses through the oxide layer, and as a result, the beginning of measurable oxidation is delayed. The results obtained by the mathematical model and finite element method were validated by the experimental results.
