The thermodynamic stability of these compounds in air increases in the order B~ C< Cr3C2< VC (the stabilities of chromium carbide and vanadium carbide are practically identical)[3]. Literature data on the oxidation of these carbides in the form of powders produced by the usual carbothermic method are cited in Table i. The oxidation resistance of boron carbide in air (which is in fact comparatively high) is linked with the appearance on its grains of impervious films of liquid boron oxide, which prevent oxygen from reaching them [7]. Because of this, full oxidation of B~ C takes place only at elevated temperatures (Table I), when evaporation of the boron oxide becomes appreciable.In the work described below, a study was made of the atmospheric oxidation of ultrafine boron carbide, vanadium carbide, and chromium carbide powders produced by the gaseousphase method. The chemical compositions of the carbides were determined by standard techniques [7]. The mean particle sizes of the powders were calculated with the expression [8]
