Abstract
The phase equilibrium of the B-Co-Ti ternary system is important for the preparation and development of Co-containing TiB2-based ceramics. To obtain the liquidus projection, 54 kinds of as-cast alloys were prepared via arc melting. The microstructures and solidification paths of the 54 kinds of alloys were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy, electron probe microanalysis, X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry. The results show that the proposed liquidus projection of the B-Co-Ti ternary system contains 15 primary precipitation regions: BCC, CoTi2, CoTi, Co2Ti, Co3Ti, αCo, TiB, Ti3B4, TiB2, (B), CoB, Co2B, Co3B, τ1 and τ2. Six E-type and nine U-type ternary invariant reactions are suggested on the basis of experimental data. The thermodynamic calculation of the B-Co-Ti ternary system was carried out, and a set of self-consistent thermodynamic parameters was obtained. The calculated liquidus projection and 800 °C isothermal sections are in good agreement with the experimental data.
期刊介绍:
The design of industrial processes requires reliable thermodynamic data. CALPHAD (Computer Coupling of Phase Diagrams and Thermochemistry) aims to promote computational thermodynamics through development of models to represent thermodynamic properties for various phases which permit prediction of properties of multicomponent systems from those of binary and ternary subsystems, critical assessment of data and their incorporation into self-consistent databases, development of software to optimize and derive thermodynamic parameters and the development and use of databanks for calculations to improve understanding of various industrial and technological processes. This work is disseminated through the CALPHAD journal and its annual conference.
