Abstract
Two Laves phases Zr(Cr0.40Fe0.60)2 ((C14) hexagonal structure) and Zr(Cr0.15Fe0.85)2 ((C15) cubic structure) when oxidized 3 minutes in an open furnace were characterized by X-Ray diffraction (XRD) Mössbauer Spectroscopy (MS) techniques. Oxidation modified them but part of the original Laves phases remained. Zr2-xOxCr oxides, α-Cr, (Fe, Cr) oxides, α-Fe and α-Fe2O3 were formed. The presence of α-Fe sustains a model previously suggested for the oxidation of the Laves phases. On the other hand, the existence of α-Fe2O3 together with α-Fe suggest that 3 minutes is longer than the necessary time to follow the oxidation kinetics.
