Mössbauer Investigation On Electrodeposited Fe-C And Fe-Ni-C Alloys Jan 2001

Mössbauer Investigation On Electrodeposited Fe-C And Fe-Ni-C Alloys

A.S. Md Abdul Haseeb

Hard Fe-C based alloys, Fe-0.96 mass% C and Fe-15.4 mass% C having a microhardness of 810 and 750 HV, respectively, are electrodeposited from sulfate-based baths at 50°C. The Mössbauer spectra consist of high intensity sextet due to ferromagnetic Fe. The linewidth of the sextet is larger for alloys than for the pure Fe, indicating an increased effective field at different Fe sites in the alloys. Absence of any low intensity sextet, which is attributable to the Fe atoms close to the C atoms at the octahedral c-axis position, suggests that the electrodeposited alloys are in an advanced state of aging. …


Thermal Decomposition Study Of Electrodeposited Fe-C And Fe-Ni-C Alloys By Differential Scanning Calorimetry Jan 2001

Thermal Decomposition Study Of Electrodeposited Fe-C And Fe-Ni-C Alloys By Differential Scanning Calorimetry

A.S. Md Abdul Haseeb

Fe-0.96mass%C and Fe-15.4mass%Ni-0.70mass%C alloys with hardness of 810 and 750 HV respectively have been electrodeposited at 50°C from sulphate based baths containing a small amount of citric acid and L-ascorbic acid. Differential scanning calorimetry of the electrodeposited samples has been carried out in the temperature range of 293-725 K in argon atmosphere. Electrodeposited pure Fe is also investigated for comparison purposes. The DSC curves of both alloys contain two exothermic peaks: at about 411 K and 646 K for the Fe-C alloy, and 388 K and 639 K for the Fe-Ni-C alloy. These peaks are irreversible and do not appear …
