    Notes: Abstract Heavy rainfall and dense vegetation on tropical volcanoes produce abundant carbonized wood in pyroclastic deposits, in addition to easy contamination of this wood by root systems and soluble humic material. Because the physical nature of the charcoal varies, some samples are more prone to contamination. Two independent studies of the same volcano, Mt Liamuiga on St Kitts in the Lesser Antilles, sometimes using samples from the same carbonized tree, yielded a systematic difference in radiocarbon ages. An exchange of samples and a re-investigation of three physically distinct types of charcoal yielded the following results. Rare, hard, dense charcoal, lacking contamination, which had yielded a spurious age of 2860 years bp, was redated at 1845±58 years bp. Common soft, friable charcoal with good cellular structure proved to be susceptible to contamination. A field decontamination technique utilized by one group seems significant as it yields older ages than when only routine laboratory pre-treatment was used, indicating that the latter technique only partly removes the dried and hard residue produced by the decomposition of modern plant rootlets. A previous date of 24870 years bp obtained from powdery charcoal in a horizon beneath the Mansion ‘Series’ contradicted ages older than 41000 years bp from common friable charcoal in the lower Mansion ‘Series’. The soft powdery charcoal was re-investigated using a sample collected a few centimeters from the original, although field decontamination of this sample was not possible, more extensive laboratory treatment yielded an age of ca. 43000 years bp, again proving that routine laboratory pretreatments are inadequate. A revised geochronology for the Mansion ‘Series’ is described and a cautionary discussion is presented for the benefit of investigators using radiocarbon ages to date volcanic deposits.

    Description / Table of Contents: Diffusion von Übergangsmetallen in auf Stahl 316 aufgewachsenem Duplex-OxidMit der Methode der sukzessiven Abtragung wurden nach Diffusionsglühen bei 1273 K Konzentrationsprofile von radioaktiven Isotopen (Chrom, Mangan und Eisen) in einem auf Stahl 316 entstandenen doppelschichtigem Zunder ermittelt. Das Eisenisotop diffundiert danach normalerweise sowohl durch die innere als auch durch die äußere Zunderschicht. Die Konzentration der Isotopen von Chrom und Mangan nimmt in der äußeren Magnetitschicht nach Außen hin zu, zeigt aber in der inneren Spinellschicht ein normales Konzentrationsprofil. Die Diffusionskoeffizienten - ermittelt aufgrund der Konzentrationsprofile - lagen, bezogen auf die Diffusion in der Spinellphase, zwischen 6 × 10-12 und 3 × 10-11 cm2 sec-1.
    Notes: Concentration profiles of chromium, maganese and iron radioactive tracers through a duplex oxide grown on 316 stainless steel have been obtained after a diffusion anneal at 1273 K using the serial sectioning technique. The iron tracer diffused normally in both inner and outer oxides of the duplex scale. The concentration of the chromium and manganese tracers increased with increasing penetration into the outer Fe3O4 layer but showed a normal profile in the inner spinel. The diffusion coefficients obtained from the profiles were in the range 6 × 10-12 - 3 × 10-11 cm2 sec-1 for diffusion in the spinel phases.

    Description / Table of Contents: Chromverarmung nichtrostender Stähle beim Glühen im VakuumBei der selektiven Oxidation von Chrom in nichtrostenden Stählen wird das Oxidatinos-verhalten stark von den Veränderungen der Chromkonzentration an der Metalloberfläche und im Metall beeinflußt. Nach den bisherigen Annahmen verhält sich das Chrom bei der selektiven Oxidation ebenso wie bei der Verflüchtigung während des Vakuumerhitzens auf hohe Temperaturen. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird die Verdampfung von Chrom aus Stahl 316 bei Vakuumanlassen bei 1000 °C mittels energiedispersiver Röntgenstrahlen- und Neutronenaktivierungsanalyse untersucht. Es wird festgestellt, daß der Chromverlust aus austenitischen nichtrostenden Stählen durch Interdiffusion in der Legierung kontrolliert wird. Entsprechend der Vorhersage nimmt die Chromkonzentration an der Metalloberfläche mit zunehmender Erhitzungsdauer ab. Das Chromverarmungsprofil im Metall stimmt gut über in mit einem früher obgeleiteten Modell, abgesehen von einer anomalen Zone in Oberflächennähe. Die hohe Auflösung der Neutronenaktivierungstechnik läßt erkennen, daß es sich um eine etwa 2μm dicke Zone handelt, wo die Chromkonzentration steiler absinkt als es den erwartungen entspricht.
    Notes: During selective chromium Oxidation of stainless steels the changes in chromium concentration at the metal surface and in the metal have an important bearing on the overall oxidation performance. It has been proposed that an analogue of chromium behaviour during selective oxidation is obtained from volatilisation of chromium during high temperature vacuum annealing. In the present report the evaporation of chromium from 316 type of steel, vacuum annealed at 1000 °C, has been investigated by menas of energy dispersive X-ray analysis and by neutron activation analysis. It was established that chromium loss from austenitic stainless steels is rate controlled by interdiffusion in the alloy. As predicted the chromium concentration at the metal surface decreased with increasing vacuum annealing time. The chromium depletion profile in the metal was in good agreement with the previously derived model apart from an anomalous region near the surface. Here the higher resolution of the neutron activation technique indicated a zone within ∼2μm of the surface where the chromium concentration decreased more steeply than expected.

    Description / Table of Contents: Oxidation eines 18/8 Stahls in KohlendioxidDas Oxidationsverhalten von 18/8-Stahl wurde im Temperaturbereich 873-1258K (600-985°C) durch kontinuierliche Messung der Gewichtszunahme, metallographische Methoden und Rasterelektronenmikroskopie untersucht. Auf eine anfänglich hohe Oxidationsgeschwindigkeit folgt eine Periode mit wesentlich geringerer Oxidation. Im Anfangsstadium entsteht ein zweischichtiger Zunder. weshalb die Abnahme der Oxidationsgeschwindigkeit wahrscheinlich durch die Bildung eines geordneten, chromreichen Spinells an der Grenzfläche Oxid/Metall bedingt sein dürfte.Wenn unter Verwendung des Modells von Hales die Bildung von „heilenden„ Phasen berücksichtigt wurde, ergab sich eine echte parabolische Zeitkonstante: \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$ k_p = {\rm 1}{ .8\,\, exp}\left({\frac{{ - {\rm 230}}}{{RT}}} \right)g^2\,\, cm^{ - 4} \,\,\sec ^{ - 1} $$\end{document}Hierin ist die Aktivierungsenergie in KJ. mol-1 (55 kcal · mol-1) ausgedrückt.
    Notes: The oxidation behaviour of an 18/8 type stainless steel has been studied in the temperature range 873-1258 K (600-985 °C) by continous weight gain measurements, metallography and scanning electron microscopy. An initial high oxidation rate was followed by a much slower rate. Duplex scales formed at an early stage of oxidation and the decrease in oxidation rate is probably due to the formation of an ordered chromium rich spinel at the oxide/metal interface.A ture parabolic rate constant (kp) was obtained taking into account the formation of the “healing” phase using the Hales model. This gave: \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$ k_p = {1.8\,\, exp}\left({\frac{{ - {\rm 230}}}{{RT}}} \right)g^2\,\, cm^{ - 4} \,\,\sec ^{ - 1} $$\end{document}. where the activation energy is expressed in KJ · mole-1. (55 Kcals mole-1).

    Description / Table of Contents: Konzentrationsprofile in einem Duplex-Oxidzunder auf Stahl 316Konzentrationsprofile in auf vakuumangelassenem Stahl 316 entstandenem Duplex-Oxidzunder wurden mit Neutronenaktivierungsanalyse und energiedispersiver Analyse untersucht. Gute qualitative Übereinstimmung zwischen den beiden Methoden ergab sich für das Konzentrationsprofil von Chrom in der äußeren Oxidschicht; die Ergebnisse deuten auf eine geringe Geschwindigkeit der Stromdiffusion in die äußere Magnetitschicht. Bei der inneren Oxidschicht ist die Übereinstimmung zwischen den beiden Methoden weniger gut, da die Ergebnisse der Neutronenaktivierung durch die Anwesenheit von Metall in der Querschnittsfläche verfälscht werden. Die Ergebnisse der energiedispersiven Analysen dieser Schicht stimmen mit früheren Befunden überein, wonach normale oder nichtselektive Oxydation auftritt.
    Notes: Concentration profiles through duplex scales formed on vacuum annealed 316 stainless steel have been investigated using neutron activation analysis and energy dispersive analysis. Good qualitative agreement between the two analytical techniques was obtained for chromium concentration profiles in the outer oxide. These indicated a low rate of chromium diffusion into the Fe3O4 layer. There was less agreement between the two methods in the inner oxide as the neutron activation results were complicated by the presence of metal in sections through this oxide layer. The energy dispersive results in this layer were consistent with previous findings which indicated conservative or non selective oxidation occurring.

    Notes: The scratch test is widely used to assess the adhesion of ceramic coatings deposited on cermet and alloy substrates by both physical vapour deposition and chemical vapour deposition (CVD). It has been observed during such tests that, depending on the coating type, complete coating removal from the scratch channels can be preceded by flaking of the coating at the edges of the channels. An attempt has been made to ascertain, for CVD coated powder metallurgy (PM) high speed steel (HSS) cutting tool inserts, whether a relationship exists between the presence/absence and type of pre-critical load coating flaking observed during scratch testing and interfacial compositional variations determined by Auger electron spectroscopy (AES). Scratch test and AES results are presented for the following CVD coated PM HSS inserts: titanium nitride (TiN) coated, where no flaking has been observed; titanium carbide (TiC) coated, where mixed adhesive/cohesive flaking of the TiC coating has been observed and multilayer aluminium oxide (Al2O3) coated, where adhesive flaking of the Al2O3coating has been observed. In the case of the TiN and TiC coated inserts it is not considered that differences in coating/substrate interdiffusion zone thickness alone are responsible for the observed divergence in scratch test behaviour. Differences in coating microhardness are also suggested to be a significant factor. The behaviour of the multilayer Al2O3 coated insert during scratch testing is thought more likely to be singularly associated with interfacial chemistry.
