Abstract

The tracer diffusion of63Ni in Fe-17 Cr-12 Ni by both volume and grain boundary transport has been studied from 600° to 1250°C. The use of an RF sputtering technique for serial sectioning allowed the determination of very small volume diffusion coefficients at the lower temperatures. Volume diffusion of nickel in this alloy was observed to be much slower than in pure iron or austenitic stainless steel at comparable temperatures. The volume diffusion coefficient is described byD v =8.8 exp (−60,000/RT) cm2/s and grain boundary diffusion is described by σD gb =3.7×10−9 exp (−32,000/RT) cm3/s.
