“…On heating to 850 ° C, the gap was filled by an oxidation layer that formed and then grew on the Al alloy surface. The sequence of the Al alloy oxidation in the gap has been discussed in detail elsewhere and is considered widely to occur through the following four steps: At low temperatures, Al oxidizes to form an Al 2 O 3 layer on the surface of the Al alloy and it grows in thickness with increasing temperature to 850°C. At higher temperatures, Mg in the Al alloy reduces Al 2 O 3 to Al and the free oxygen reacts with Mg to form a thin MgO layer. As the MgO grows on the surface of the Al alloy, the Mg activity in the Al alloy decreases and thus the relative Al concentration increases.…”

“…In the cup test, the sequence of surface reactions of Al alloy (containing Mg and Zn) with air in the gap, as shown in Fig. (a), is believed to occur through the following steps: Al oxidizes to form an alumina layer on the surface of the alloy. This layer grows in thickness with increasing heating temperature to 850°C. Mg present in the alloy reduces alumina to form magnesia.…”

“…MgAl 2 O 4 layer. Kinetics laws cannot be straightforwardly deduced from thermogravimetry analyses performed on powder samples; nevertheless, the slow increase observed in the weight gain obtained at low temperature (350 and 365°C) suggests that the amorphous spinel phase formed at these temperatures can act as a diffusion barrier and decrease the oxide layer growth rate, as already observed in the literature [7,26,28,31]. Reversely, the sharp acceleration in the weight gain curve which is observed at 411°C (see Fig.…”

“…However, in view of the high porosity of the oxide scale and the large content in magnesium of the substrate alloy, depletion of magnesium at the interface between the alloy and the oxide layer and accumulation of voids seem unlikely in our case as the bulk alloy can act as an infinite Mg reservoir. An alternative explanation for enhanced oxidation rates at 8 h would be the nucleation of a new phase between the alloy substrate and the oxide film [1,23,24,26,32]. Although preferential oxidation of magnesium is kinetically favoured at the start of the oxidation process (phase 1) due to the high vapour pressure of this metal, the formation of an intermediate spinel layer MgAl 2 O 4 is also possible in view of thermodynamic considerations and has often been observed during oxidation of Al-Mg alloys.…”
