Carbidization of spherical titanium particles in a solid-liquid state

Conclusions A mathematical model of the carbidization process of titanium in a solid-liquid state and optimum conditions of carbidization of titanium are proposed. Data yielded by model experiments are in qualitative agreement with results of calculations. An investigation, involving microhardness measurements on specimen sections, was carried out into the carbidization kinetics of spherical titanium specimens at temperatures of 2073–2573°K.Translated from Poroshkovaya Metallurgiya, No. 9(249), pp. 28–33, September, 1983.
