On the Formation of the Minimal-Energy Surface in the Solid-State Reactions of the Formation of Chromium Carbide

摘要

A solid-state material based on chromium carbide with a unique microstructure with the topology of triple periodic minimal energy surfaces (TPMES) formed as a result of reaction-diffusion transformations is described for the first time. The results of this study are offering opportunities to create novel types of materials with a regular microstructure.
