Ternary interdiffusion coefficients in α2-phase Ti3Al/Nb system

The α2 single phase interdiffusion in Ti3Al-Nb ternary system was studied at temperatures of 1323, 1373 and 1423 K. The interdiffusion coefficients were calculated by the method of Dayananda. The average ternary interdiffusion coeffcients were determined in the mid of the diffusion zone, and the...

Description
Summary:The α2 single phase interdiffusion in Ti3Al-Nb ternary system was studied at temperatures of 1323, 1373 and 1423 K. The interdiffusion coefficients were calculated by the method of Dayananda. The average ternary interdiffusion coeffcients were determined in the mid of the diffusion zone, and the trace diffusion coefficients can be estimitaed in the limit cX→0. The obtained main interdiffusion coeffcients is little smaller than privious reported and the diffusion activation energy of Nb calculated by the trace diffusion coefficients is 299.29 kJmol-1 accoding to the Arrhenius equation. These results can provide a theoretical basis for the mechanisms of Nb improving the oxidation resistance of Ti3Al.
