Impact of MgO Additions on the Oxidation Resistance and Compression Behavior of Vanadium Alloys
A novel route for the fabrication of core–shell structured V–MgO alloys via in situ MgO formation is developed. Spark plasma sintering is employed to obtain fully dense V– x MgO ( x = 1, 2.5, 5 wt.%) samples. The sintered alloys consist of vanadium grains with finely dispersed MgO particles uniformly distributed...
