Stress-diffusion interaction during oxide scale growth on metallic alloys
When a metallic alloy is placed in an oxygen environment, oxide scale may be formed on the metal surface. The continuous growth of such oxide scale is enabled by the diffusion of various ionic species in the scale layer primarily driven by the gradient of chemical potentials of these ionic species....
