Abstract

Kinetic studies were made of the localized crystal growth and the oxygen chemisorption on the surface of iron and copper metal powders (aver. dia. 1. 3 to 1. 7 mu m) by means of electron microscope and micro-TG analyzer. In common to both metals, similar type growths of cylindrical oxide whiskers, uniform in diameter and uniformly distributed on the surface of metal particles, were observed. The effect of the temperature on growth rates and crystal size is reported. Correlation between the various phenomena is discussed on mechanistic basis.
