Oxidation of Ag-Sn alloy powders is important technology for Ag-SnO2 electrical contact materials. Here the influence of oxidant on the oxidation behavior of Ag-5.08Sn-3.14Sb alloy powders was discussed. It can be found that the binding energy of all elements after oxidation in air is different from in air + Ag2O. Oxidation in air, the powder surface becomes rough and appears peeling, elements Sn, Sb and O distribute on the surface, oxides form on the powder surface. But oxidation in air + Ag2O, the powder surface is smooth, all elements uniformly distribute on the silver matrix and internal oxidation is occurred.

•The influence of Ag2O addition on the oxidation mechanism is discussed.•The binding energies of elements are different after Ag2O addition.•The oxides’ morphology is different after Ag2O addition.•Oxidation in air, O diffuses in, Sn and Sb diffuse out, external oxidation occurred.•After Ag2O addition,O diffuses in, Sn and Sb not diffuse, internal oxidation occurred.
