Thermodynamic analysis of interactions between Ti-Al alloys and oxide ceramics

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The thermodynamics of interactions between various oxides (CaO, MgO, Al 2O 3 and Y 2O 3) and molten Ti and Ti alloys was investigated. The dissolution mechanism of oxides in molten Ti alloys was provided and the stability of oxides in molten Ti alloys was investigated and predicted by thermodynamic analysis. Interactions between oxides and Ti-Al melts were studied by oxide crucible melting experiments. By quantitative analysis, it is indicated that impurity contents in alloys are proportionally decreased with increasing the Al content in alloys and decreasing the melt temperature, which is in agreement with the results of the predicting thermodynamic stability.
