Interdiffusion study on Co(W) solid solution and topological close-packed μ phase in Co-W system

An interdiffusion study is conducted on the Co-W system by a diffusion couple technique. The interdiffusion coefficient of the Co(W) solid solution and the Co7W6 mu phase is determined. The activation energy is found to increase with the W content of the Co(W) solid solution. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
