phenomenological coefficient which means the interaction between i and k, and d g f l d x is the chemical potential gradiant of component k. It is general that the most immobile component has been used as a lattice frame work: v,s Ni, Fe or Cr. Consider from the microscopical analyses that no other elements other than Si, Mo, A1, and Ti contribute to oxidation and carburization, i.e. their interactions with oxygen and carbon are negligibly small. The Eq. [1] can be rewritten as

k -- C, O, Si, Mo, A1, and Ti. Since silicon and molybdenum oxides, and aluminum and titanium carbides were not observed, the interactions Ls~o, Luoo, LAJc, and L~ c are considered to be sufficiently small. Furthermore, if the interactions between metal atoms concerned with corrosion such as L~os,, or LMoA~ are also neglected, the diffusion flux of metal is expressed from Eq. [2]

M = Si, Mo, A1 and Ti; Z = C for Si, Mo, and O for A1, Ti. Now we define the carburization zone and the oxidation zone where formed carbides and oxides are embedded in the matrix. A similar zone for the theory of the internal oxidation of alloys had been proposed. 9 The diffusion is governed by carbon and oxygen dissolved from the gas phase into those corrosion zones in alloy. When the reaction between metal atom M and nonmetallic atom Z to form carbide or oxide M~Z is considered, gMvZ m Pls
