Abstract
Abstract Hot dip aluminizing of mild steel at different temperatures was conducted to reveal the influence of reaction temperature and time on interfacial intermetallic compounds (IMCs). Scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry and X-ray diffraction were employed to investigate the interfacial microstructures. The IMCs of the dipping interface consisted of a thick layer of η-Fe 2 Al 5 between 4.2–132.2 μm next to the steel and a thin layer of θ-Fe 4 Al 13 between 0–5.5 μm close to the aluminum. With increasing dipping temperature and time, the total thickness of IMCs (Fe 2 Al 5 plus Fe 4 Al 13 ) increased. Specifically, the growth of the Fe 2 Al 5 layer can be described by parabolic rate laws. An activation energy of 93 kJ mol −1 was obtained, combining both the results from the present work and previous studies in the temperature range of 675–900°C. The change in Fe 4 Al 13 thickness is not significant compared with the Fe 2 Al 5 . However, the decrease in IMC thickness of the Fe 4 Al 13 with dipping temperature was observed for the first time and had never been reported before. Moreover, it can be clearly observed that the thickness of the Fe 4 Al 13 decreased with dipping time based on the linear fitting results by excluding the result of the initial 1 s. A possible mechanism is that interfacial dynamics and thermodynamics work for the dissolution and decomposition of the Fe 4 Al 13 layer. Higher temperature accelerates the dissolution of the θ layer.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
