Abstract: | The crystallization behaviors of mechanically alloyed amorphous Fe-Ti alloys were studied. The α-Fe phase formed during annealing as a result of the devitrification of the amorphous phase. According to the Kissinger plot, the crystallization activation energy (E) was obtained as 171 kJ/mol, which is close to the activation energy for the diffusion of Fe in α-Ti. According to the non-isothermal Johnson–Mehl–Avrami (JMA) analysis and obtaining the volume fraction of the crystalline phase from the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) plots, the average Avrami exponent (n) was determined as 1.61 and 5.67 for low and high heating rates, respectively. Moreover, a method for obtaining the value of E based on the non-isothermal JMA analysis was proposed. The value of E was determined as ~185 and 191 kJ/mol respectively for low and high heating rates, which are consistent with the value determined from the Kissinger plot for all heating rates. |
