Wetting and Work of Adhesion in Oxide/Metal Systems

  • Chapter
Ceramic Microstructures

Abstract

This paper evaluates the inherent influence of p(O2) on contact angle, θ, and work of adhesion W ad , of liquid metal/solid oxide systems. It also outlines factors that can alter macroscopic contact angles from their equilibrium values.

For a metal/metal-oxide system, the two phases are compatible over a certain range of p(O2), within which interfacial compositions and energies may change. The dependencies of W ad and θ on oxygen activity are addressed in terms of proposed, mutual adsorption models for each of the three interfaces. Favorable adsorption energies can induce changes especially near the high and low p(O2) limits of the coexistence range that often mimic bulk oxidation or reduction reactions. However, in some systems, an intermediate range of p(O2) exists wherein all the interfaces are stoichiometric, and so θ and W ad are independent of p(O2) (denoted “plateau values”); these are characteristics of the quasi-binary metal/oxide system. A critique of several pure metal/Al2O3 systems affirms predicted trends and reveals that θ is 110–130° at the plateau and drops to or below 90° at the high and low p(O2) limits.

Potentially confusing effects on spreading kinetics and θ values frequently arise from triple point ridging, developed to achieve two dimensional equilibrium at junctions, and from transient oxide skin on the metal. A key finding is that a time scale exists in which triple point ridging can control the spreading rate, yet still permit a macroscopic contact angle to obtain that can be analyzed using Young’s equation.
