The role of tin in the mechanism by which aluminium nitride grows on aluminium powder is explored. In the absence of tin, the aluminium powder nitrides rapidly, with growth occurring both into and out from the surface of the particles. In contrast, nitridation occurs more slowly in the presence of tin, which is incorporated in the growing nitride. When the tin is depleted, rapid nitridation occurs. The initial tin concentration determines the point at which the growth rate changes. (c) 2006 Acta Materialia Inc. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
