oxideenriched
Oxideenriched, or oxide-enriched, is a term used to describe materials in which the oxide component is present at higher-than-baseline concentrations, either in bulk form or as a surface layer. It denotes a composition in which oxide phases dominate over non-oxide constituents, and is used across ceramics, catalysis, and materials science to signal a shift in chemical or structural makeup.
Formation and enrichment can arise through natural processes such as oxidation and corrosion, or through deliberate
Properties of oxide-enriched materials depend on the specific oxide system but often include enhanced chemical stability,
Applications typically involve ceramic components, protective coatings, catalytic supports, and various electronic or optical devices where
Challenges include achieving uniform enrichment, avoiding phase separation or excessive grain growth, and maintaining performance under
