The isothermal oxidation of ZrB2powder was carried out in the range of 650–800°C in a flowing air using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The evolution of the phase characterization and morphology of ZrB2powder oxidized at 700°C for varying durations was studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), respectively. The excellent fit of TG curves by multiple-law model suggests that the oxidation of ZrB2powder in air follows para-linear kinetics, and based on the fitted results, oxidation mechanisms can also be obtained. The reaction product of ZrB2powder with oxygen is metastable tetragonal ZrO2at 700°C, and the tetragonal phase transforms to the monoclinic phase with oxidation. The oxidation of ZrB2powder is associated with surface microcrack formation, which is attributed to volume expansion resulting from oxidation of ZrB2to tetragonal ZrO2and tetragonal-to-monoclinic phase transformation of ZrO2. In the last stage of oxidation, each ZrB2particle breaks into fragments.
