@article{oai:nipr.repo.nii.ac.jp:00004677, author = {Tsuchiyama,Akira and Fujimoto,Seiji}, journal = {Proceedings of the NIPR Symposium on Antarctic Meteorites}, month = {Mar}, note = {P(論文), Evaporation experiments were carried out to examine evaporation kinetics of metallic iron, one of the important materials forming terrestrial planets and meteorites. Platelets of pure metallic iron were heated at temperatures ranging from 1075 to 1312℃ under vacuum (10^<-5> to 10^<-6> Torr) for 0.5 to 96 hrs. The evaporation proceeds by forming evaporation steps, although small wustite crystals were formed on the surfaces by partial oxidation of iron under vacuum. Amounts of evaporated iron estimated from mass loss of experimental charges increased with time at constant temperatures, showing a linear rate law. The evaporation rates, j, can be represented by ln j=22.21±2.29[mol m^<-2>s^<-1>]-390.6±29.2[kJ mol^<-1>]/RT. The evaporation coefficients, α_v, were obtained by comparing the experimental results with calculated rates using the Hertz-Knudsen equation. The value of α_v is close to unity if effects of partial oxidation are taken into consideration. The present results give basic information for discussing chemical evolution of the primordial solar nebula.}, pages = {205--213}, title = {Evaporation experiments of metallic iron in vacuum}, volume = {8}, year = {1995} }
