Phase Transformation-Induced Interfacial Debonding of Silica Inclusions in Iron

Andreas Mortensen, Alejandra Inés Slagter, David Hernandez Escobar, Julie Nathalie S Gheysen

We document that in unstressed, undeformed, samples of pure iron containing silica inclusions precipitated by melt deoxidation, the iron matrix and a small fraction of the silica inclusions are locally separated at room temperature by a void. Thermal cycli ...
