Abstract

A high temperature facility to study liquid metal–ceramic interfaces via neutron reflection spectroscopy is described. Preliminary results from a study of sapphire/Sn and sapphire/Sn–3 wt% Ti samples up to 1000°C are presented. Results show that the interface generally consisted of a patchy mixed metal/metal oxide surface rather than discreet layers. A study of Ti segregation proved inconclusive although further investigation is required. Overall the technique is suitable for the characterisation of metal–ceramic interfaces at high temperature.
