Wettability and Work of Adhesion of the Ge28Sb12Se60 Glass Melt to Various Structural Materials
摘要
Abstract
The wettability and work of adhesion of the Ge28Sb12Se60 glass melt to stainless steel grades AISI 201 and AISI 430 with a conventional and nitrided surface, titanium and a tungsten carbide alloy YG8 in the temperature range of 480–530°C was studied. It was found that nitriding of the stainless steel surface leads to a 2–3-fold decrease in the adhesion of chalcogenide melts to the stainless steel surface. Among all the considered structural materials, the maximum adhesion of the Ge28Sb12Se60 glass melt is observed to AISI 201 stainless steel, the minimum to AISI 430 nitrided steel.
