Comparative studies of the oxidation of MoSi₂ based materials

Molybdenum disilicide (MoSi₂) is a promising intermetallic material for high temperature applications (above 1000°C). However, it rapidly oxidizes at temperatures ranging from 400 to 600°C, which given enough time, can lead to its disintegration. Above 1000°C, MoSi₂ exhibits better oxidation resista...
