Diffusion in Co-Ni System Studied by Multifoil Technique

Abstract

Diffusion couple experiments were performed in the Co-Ni binary system for determining inter-, impurity- and intrinsic-diffusion coefficients in the temperature range of 1050 - 1250°C. The activation energy and pre-exponential factor estimated for interdiffusion do not vary significantly with composition. The activation energy calculated for impurity diffusion experiments shows is higher than . Intrinsic diffusion coefficients estimated from the multifoil experiment show that Ni is the fastest diffusing species in this system.
