Oxidation resistant Ti-Al-Cr alloy for protective coating applications
Abstract
Ternary Ti-Al-Cr alloys offer excellent oxidation stability at elevated temperatures due to the formation of a continuous alumina surface layer during oxidation in air. We have investigated the oxidation kinetics and surface oxide characteristics of several Ti-Al-Cr compositions. It is shown that alloys containing mainly the τ and Laves phase exhibit superior oxidation stability over a wide range of temperatures (750–1100°C). The best oxidation …
