Ab Initio Study of Ternary W<sub>5</sub>Si<sub>3</sub> Type TM<sub>5</sub>Sn<sub>2</sub>X Compounds (TM = Nb, Ti and X = Al, Si)
The adhesion of the scale formed on Nb-silicide based alloys at 1473 K improves when Al and Sn are in synergy with Si and Ti. This improvement is observed when there is segregation of Sn in the microstructure below the alloy/scale interface and a layer rich in intermetallics that include TM<sub&g...
