摘要
We investigate the site occupancy and the interfacial energetics of TiAl-Ti3Al binary-phase system with H using a first-principles method. H energetically prefers to occupy the Ti-rich octahedral interstitial site because H prefers to bond with Ti rather than with Al. The occupancy tendency of H in the binary phase TiAl-Ti3Al alloy from high to low is α2-Ti3Al to γ/α2 interface and 7-TiAl, because the decrease of the Ti local concentration is in the same order. We demonstrate that H can largely affect the mechanical properties of the TiAl-Ti3Al system. On the one hand, H at the interface reduces the interface energy with the H2 molecule as a reference, implying the TiAl/Ti3Al interface is stabilized. On the other hand, the ratio between the cleavage energy and the unstable stacking fault energy decreases after H-doping, indicating H will reduce the ductility of the TiAl/Ti3Al interface. Consequently, the mechanical property variation of TiA1 alloy due to the presence of H not only depends on the amount of TiAl/Ti3Al interfaces but also is related to the H concentration in the alloy.
We investigate the site occupancy and the interfacial energetics of TiAl-Ti 3 Al binary-phase system with H using a first-principles method.H energetically prefers to occupy the Ti-rich octahedral interstitial site because H prefers to bond with Ti rather than with Al.The occupancy tendency of H in the binary phase TiAl-Ti 3 Al alloy from high to low is 2-Ti 3 Al to/2 interface and-TiAl,because the decrease of the Ti local concentration is in the same order.We demonstrate that H can largely affect the mechanical properties of the TiAl-Ti 3 Al system.On the one hand,H at the interface reduces the interface energy with the H 2 molecule as a reference,implying the TiAl/Ti 3 Al interface is stabilized.On the other hand,the ratio between the cleavage energy and the unstable stacking fault energy decreases after H-doping,indicating H will reduce the ductility of the TiAl/Ti 3 Al interface.Consequently,the mechanical property variation of TiAl alloy due to the presence of H not only depends on the amount of TiAl/Ti 3 Al interfaces but also is related to the H concentration in the alloy.
