Formation of a disperse Fe–Al–Cr system in aqueous solutions and its physical properties

Abstract

We have demonstrated the feasibility of producing a disperse Fe–Al–Cr polymetallic system through a contact exchange in chloride-containing aqueous solutions and investigated the processes that take place on aluminum microparticles in aqueous solutions containing ions of appropriate metals. It has been shown that the system is a precursor of intermetallic phases that result from high-temperature processes, in particular from spark plasma sintering.
