It is shown that oxidation rate of experimental alloys obeys the parabolic kinetics. Ti?22Al?26Nb?1Zr alloy demonstrates more excellent oxidation resistance than the other two alloys. The main oxidation products are TiO2, Al2O3 and AlNbO4 phases for all these alloys. For the Ti?22Al?26Nb?1Zr alloy, Zr addition can modify the growth mechanism of oxide scale, which can effectively hinder the diffusion of oxygen. Whereas, reaction of Zr with oxygen leads to the formation of ZrO2 precipitates for the Ti?22Al?21Nb?6Zr alloy, which promotes the oxygen ingress into the substrate. Meanwhile, oxidation affected zones, including internal-oxidation layer and oxygen-enriched zone, are present beneath the outmost oxide scale. The difference in these zones is derived from the phase constitution in the starting Ti?22Al?(27?x)Nb?xZr (x=0, 1, 6) alloys.展开更多

The precipitation of a2 phase in cooling was investigated by transmission electron microscopic analysis The precipitation characteristic of α2 phase was discussed. The precipitation of α2 phase would proceed by the nucleation and growth of α2 phase dependent on the diffusion of Al atoms. And a comparison on the difference of precipitation of α2 phase was carried out under the conditions of air-cooling and quenching in water. The investigation showed that the air-cooling and even quenching could supply enough time for the precipitation and growth of α2 phase when Al content reached a certain value even though far away from the stoichiometric composition of Ti3Al.展开更多

The phase structure was analyzed by X-ray diffraction,and the electrochemical performances of the melt-spun alloys were investigated. The results indicated that the Ti44Zr32Ni22Cu2 alloy was composed of the icosahedral quasicrystals and amorphous phases,and the Ti41Zr29Ni28Cu2 alloy comprised icosahedral quasicrystals,amorphous,and Laves phases. The maximum discharge capacity was 141 mAh/g for the Ti44Zr32Ni22Cu2 alloy and 181 mAh/g for the Ti41Zr29Ni28Cu2 alloy,respectively. The Ti41Zr29Ni28Cu2 alloy also showed a better high-rate dischargeability and cycling stability. The better electrochemical properties should be ascribed to the high content of Ni,which was beneficial to the electrochemical kinetic properties and made the alloy more resistant to oxidation,as well as to the Laves phase in the Ti41Zr29Ni28Cu2 alloy,which could work as the electro-catalyst and the micro-current collector.展开更多

The distribution and size of the α2 ordered phase changed with temperature and Al content. The dislocations were the only places where the α2 ordered phase could precipitate at higher temperature near the critical transformation temperature for each alloy experimented. With the addition of Al content, the critical transformation temperature of α2 ordered phase increased. When the aging temperature was relatively low (650℃), the precedent precipitation of α2 ordered phase took place in primary a phase at the early stage of aging, in the duplex microstructure (the primary a with the transformed (3) of the alloys with lower Al content. But after certain aging time (50 h), the size of α2 particles was almost equal in both the primary a and the transformed β. And no obvious growth of α2 particles could be observed after 50 h.展开更多
