Abstract:The oxidation of a two‐phase iron‐copper alloy has been studied as an example of the behavior of multiphase systems with simple compositions of the component single phases. The alloy oxidizes more slowly than either of the pure metals, particularly iron, and the scale contains both components, copper being particularly accumulated close to the scale‐gas interface. A deep region of internal oxidation is also present, where the iron‐rich particles have been converted into
