Abstract

Abstract The competition between synchronous oxidation and preferential oxidation of Zr and Al in amorphous Cu-Zr-Al alloys has been investigated. Oxide-layer growth on Cu-poor Cu-Zr-Al alloys occurs by synchronous oxidation of Zr and Al. However, for relatively high Cu alloying contents, synchronous oxidation of Zr and Al becomes disturbed by the increased chemical interaction of Cu with Al, which immobilizes Cu and Al atoms from oxidation. Consequently, only Zr is preferentially oxidized. The findings provide fundamental insights on the role of nobler alloy constituents on the oxidation mechanism of multi-component alloys, which opens new avenues for rational design of surficial oxide structures.
