Sintering properties of Ti-6Al-4V-xMo powder prepared by addition of Mo to Ti-6Al-4V scraps and subsequent pulverization

In this study, the sintering properties of Ti-6Al-4V-xMo powder prepared by an addition of Mo to Ti-6Al-4V scraps and subsequent pulverization were investigated. As the content of Mo added to Ti-6Al-4V scraps as a β stabilizer increased, the weight ratio of the α and β stabilizers in the Ti-6Al-4V-xMo changed and the original weight ratio of 6:4 varied to 5.71:8.57 when 5 wt% xMo was added. In order to compare the difference in properties of Ti-6Al-4V-xMo ingots with sintered bodies of the Ti-6Al-4V-xMo powder, we prepared sintered bodies from Ti-6Al-4V-xMo powder with an O content of about 5000 ppm and 325 mesh size. As a result, it was found that the sintered bodies of Ti-6Al-4V-xMo powder showed different properties of density and micro hardness compared to the Ti-6Al-4V-xMo ingots. These differences can be explained by the larger specific surface area of the sintered bodies, which formed a porous oxide layer on the surface due to the increase of Mo in the β zone of the Ti-6Al-4V alloys.     

High-temperature corrosion of Ti and Ti-6Al-4V alloy

Pure titanium and Ti-6Al-4V were exposed at 750°C in an H₂/H₂O/H₂S P_{O 2}10^–18 Pa and P_{S 2}10^–1 Pa), H₂/H₂O (P_{O 2}10^–18 Pa) and air environments for up to 240 hr. The corrosion kinetics, obtained by the discontinuous gravimetric method, showed that the sulfidation/oxidation kinetics were linear for Ti and linear-parabolic for Ti-6Al-4V in the H₂/H₂O/H₂S environment. Both materials obeyed parabolic rate laws in the H₂/H₂O atmosphere after a transient period, and linear-parabolic rate laws in air. After exposure to the H₂/H₂O/H₂S atmosphere, the titanium specimen displayed a double scale of TiO₂ with an intervening TiS₂ film between the double-layered scale of TiO₂ and the substrate. Ti-6Al-4V also contained a double layer of TiO₂ together with a stratum consisting of Al₂S₃, TiS₂ and vanadium sulfide at the junction of the inner TiO₂ layer and substrate. Some Al₂O₃ precipitated in the external portion of the outer TiO₂ layer. Following oxidation in the low-P_{O 2} atmosphere a double-layered oxide of TiO₂ scale formed on both Ti and Ti-6Al-4V. The scale on Ti-6Al-4V also contained an -Al₂O₃ film situated between the outer and inner (TiO₂) layers. For both materials, multilayered-scale formation characterized air oxidation. In detail a multilayered oxide scale of TiO₂ formed on the air-oxidized Ti, while a multilayered oxide scale with alternating layers of Al₂O₃/TiO₂ developed on Ti-6Al-4V oxidized in air.

A comparative study on titania layers formed on Ti, Ti-6Al-4V and NiTi shape memory alloy through a low temperature oxidation process

For improving the bioactivity and biocompatibility of metals for medical applications, anatase titania layers were synthesized on Ti, Ti-6Al-4V and NiTi shape memory alloy (SMA) using the H₂O₂-oxidation and hot water aging treatment method at 80 °C. The thickness of the titania layers on Ti, Ti-6Al-4V and NiTi SMA was 7.43 ± 0.93 μm, 3.14 ± 0.38 μm and 4.04 ± 0.25 μm, respectively. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopic (TEM) analysis indicated that the titania layers formed were poorly crystalline anatase. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) suggested that abundant Ti-OH functional groups were produced on titania, which could improve bioactivity of the metals. In addition, the titania layer formed on Ti substrate was shown to contain more molecularly chemisorbed water and Ti-OH functional groups than those on Ti-6Al-4V and NiTi SMA. Atomic force microscopic (AFM) results showed that the surface roughness values of metal samples depended on the scanning size and that surface roughness of samples significantly increased after the H₂O₂-oxidation and hot water aging treatment for all three metals. Compared to Ti-6Al-4V and NiTi SMA, the H₂O₂-treated and aged Ti samples exhibited the roughest surface. The wettability of samples was evaluated through water contact angle measurements. After the H₂O₂-oxidation treatment, the three metals exhibited high hydrophilicity. The bonding strength of titania layers on Ti, Ti-6Al-4V and NiTi was also investigated. Potentiodynamic polarization tests indicated that the corrosion resistance of H₂O₂-treated and aged Ti, Ti-6Al-4V and NiTi SMA was significantly improved due to the titania layer formation.     

Microstructure and mechanical properties of Ti-6Al-4V/Ti-22Al-25Nb joint formed by diffusion bonding

Ti-6Al-4V (wt.%) and Ti-22Al-25Nb (at.%) were joined by diffusion bonding at 950 °C and 15 MPa for 100 min, and the microstructure and mechanical properties of the resulting joints were investigated. The composition of the diffusion layer is B2/discontinuous α/α₂ layer/necklace-shaped β+α′ layer, where the content of any element at a given point mainly depends on the distance of the point from the interface and the phase type at the point. The tensile strength of the joint is 894 MPa, which is almost the same as that of the Ti-22Al-25Nb base alloy. The fracture surfaces on both sides of the joint are composed of two main regions. One region displays a relatively flat surface and fractures along the bonding interface. The other is composed of a moderate number of irregularly-shaped cavities on the Ti-6Al-4V side and many irregularly-shaped bulges on the Ti-22Al-25Nb side. Both regions result from fracture along the boundaries between β+α′ layers and α_p grains or from the transcrystalline fracture of α_p grains.     

Corrosion resistance properties of plasma nitrided Ti-6Al-4V alloy in nitric acid solutions

The corrosion resistance of plasma nitrided Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy in nitric acid solutions was investigated using polarisation curves, cyclic voltammetry, XRD analysis and surface microhardness. For comparison, untreated alloy samples were tested under the same conditions. While the untreated alloy shows a passive behaviour, the compound layer obtained by glow-discharge nitriding treatment, which is composed of an outer TiN and an inner Ti₂N layer, shows a high electrochemical inertia; however, if the polarisation potential is higher than a threshold or the period of immersion in high oxidising acid solution is sufficiently long, then the compound surface layer will be attacked and removed with corrosion rate higher than in the case of the untreated Ti-6Al-4V alloy. The corrosion resistance of Ti₂N layer results higher in comparison with that of TiN layer.     

Comparison of molybdenizing and NiCrAlY coating on Ti and Ti-6Al-4V

Two surface treatments, molybdenizing and depositing NiCrAlY coating, were applied to improve the microhardness and the oxidation resistance of titanium and Ti-6Al-4V. Coupons were analyzed using optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with X-ray energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Vickers hardness and isothermal oxidation tests were carried out to evaluate the effects of these two surface treatments on the microhardness and oxidation resistance of the substrates. The post vacuum heat treatment of the NiCrAlY coating and the molybdenizing parameters were also discussed. It is found that molybdenizing can obviously increase the surface hardness of titanium due to the formation of β, α″, and α′ phases in the diffusion layer. As γ′ phase is formed after vacuum heat treatment, the NiCrAlY coating is effective in improving the surface hardness of Ti-6Al-4V. The NiCrAlY coating can obviously decrease the oxidation rate of Ti-6Al-4V at 700–900°C, which can be attributed to the formation of Al₂O₃ and Cr₂O₃ mixed scale during the oxidation.     

Oxidation of nitride layers formed on Ti-6Al-4V alloys by gas nitriding

Ti-6Al-4V alloys were nitrided through gas nitriding at 950 °C for 3 h in deoxygenated, atmospheric nitrogen gas. During nitriding, nitrogen reacted and diffused into the alloys to form Ti₂N and a meager amount of TiN in a Ti-N compound layer with a thickness of 20 μm to 25 μm. An α-Ti(N) diffusion layer with a thickness of 40 μm to 80 μm formed below this layer. A small amount of Al was dissolved at the top of the Ti-N compound layer because of the strong interaction of nitrogen with Ti and Al. Nitriding resulted in the dissolution of interstitial nitrogen and the formation of nitrides. Oxidation of the nitrided Ti-6Al-4V alloys initially resulted in the formation of a Ti-N-O layer, which later oxidized to TiO₂. Above 800 °C, the nitrided alloys oxidized rapidly, accompanied by microcracking of the TiO₂ surface layer.     

Influence of spark plasma sintering on microstructure and wear behaviour of Ti-6Al-4V reinforced with nanosized TiN

Ti-6Al-4V/TiN composites were successfully consolidated by spark plasma sintering (SPS). TiN addition to Ti-6Al-4V was varied from 1% to 5% (volume fraction). The effect of TiN addition on the densification, microstructure, microhardness and wear behaviour of Ti-6Al-4V was studied. Experimental results showed reduction in sintered density of the compacts from 99% to 97% with increase in TiN content. However, an increase in microhardness value was recorded from HV_0.1 389 to HV_0.1 488. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis showed that the intensity of diffraction peaks of TiN phase in the composites increased also with formation of small amount of secondary Ti₂N phase. SEM analysis of SPS sintered nanocomposites possessed a refinement of α/β phase microstructure in Ti-6Al-4V with the presence of uniformly dispersed TiN particles. The worn surface of the composite showed improved abrasive wear resistance with non-continuous grooves as compared to the sintered Ti-6Al-4V without TiN addition.
