Abstract

Simultaneous grain boundary self-diffusion of iron and cobalt in FeCo was investigated in the B-kinetic regime by the radiotracer method combined with a serial sectioning technique over the temperature range 873-1133 K, which includes the A2-B2 bulk order-disorder transition temperature. This transition leads to a decrease in both iron and cobalt mass transport mainly owing to a change in the pre-exponential factor, but not in the diffusion activation energy. Moreover, the breaking point in the Arrhenius plots is observed below the bulk order-disorder transition temperature. In view of recent surface segregation studies on Fe-Co, and according to the Fe-Co phase diagram, the results are discussed assuming an iron segregation, which decreases the A2-B2 transition temperature in grain boundaries.
