R. Kozubski et W. Pfeiler, INVESTIGATION OF ORDERING AND DISORDERING IN B-DOPED NI76AL24 BY RESIDUAL RESISTOMETRY, Journal of alloys and compounds, 220(1-2), 1995, pp. 237-240
Homogeneous long-range ordering (LRO) kinetics in Ni76Al24 + 0.19 at.%
B was studied by residual resistometry. The LRO relaxations were comp
osed of two simultaneous processes showing dramatically different rate
s strongly dependent on temperature. The resulting very high activatio
n energy of the processes was in agreement with previous results indic
ating its correlation with the value of the ''order-disorder'' transit
ion temperature. The results were compared with the literature data an
d discussed in terms of the microscopic image of vacancy migration in
the L1(2) superstructure.
