Commercial ductile iron was coated with titanium and aluminum powders by low pressure plasma spraying and then irradiated with a $CO_2$ laser to produce anti-corrosive TiC composite layer. TiC carbides were precipitated homogeneously in a laser alloyed layer by in-situ reaction between carbon existed in the base metal and titanium with thermal sprayed coating. The formation of gas pores and brittle limited mixing zone with ledeburite microstructure in TiC composite layer were surpressed by the complementary alloying of aluminum. The hardness of TiC composite layer obtained by addition of titanium and aluminum was between 600 and 660 Hv, which was three times as high as the hardness of ferritic ductile iron. From the results of isothermal oxidation at 1123k for 24 hours in air, high temperature oxidation resistance of the TiC composite layer with aluminum was improved and doubled when compared with the TiC composite layer without aluminum.

This study presents the wear characteristics of Ti alloys (Pure Ti, Ti-6Al-4V, Ti-5Al-2.5Sn) fabricated by centrifugal precision casting in an Ohara dental titanium casting machine. It was found that the hardness of the surface region is higher than that of the interior region. It is considered that the oxygen adsorption in the surface region during casting, leads to the interstitial solid solution hardening. Wear resistance incerases in the order of pure Ti, Ti-6Al-4V, Ti-5Al-2.5Sn alloys. The interior hardness value increases in the same order. The specific wear rate increases with applied load and increases monotonously with sliding speed. The Fe transfer from the counterpart material was observed on the worn surface of the Ti-5Al-2.5Sn alloy. Oxidative wear occurs at low sliding speeds and mechanical fracture wear occurs at high sliding speeds.

본 연구에서는 수소분위기 내 사염화타이타늄의 마그네슘 열환원을 이용한 수소화타이타늄 분말 합성 과정 중 온도 및 소결 조건에 따른 분말 특성 변화를 조사하였다. 수소화타이타늄 생성에 미치는 온도의 영향을 검토하기 위해 1023~1123 K의 1 atm 수소분위기에서 약 30 분간 사염화타이타늄과 마그네슘을 반응시켰다. 환원반응 후 생성된 수소화타이타늄 분말의 소결이 진행되도록 0~120 분간 환원반응 온도를 유지시켰으며, 반응 종료 후 회수된 생성물의 산소농도를 분석하였다. 실험결과, 1023 K에서는 TiH_1.924 이 생성되었으나, 1073K 및 1123 K에서는 TiH_1.924와 TiH_1.5의 혼합물이 생성되었다. 또한, 반응온도가 높을수록 생성된 수소화타이타늄 분말의 수소농도는 감소하였다. 반응온도 및 소결시간이 증가할수록 분말의 산소농도는 감소하였으며, 이는 분말의 비표면적 감소에 기인하였다. 반응온도 1073 K 및 소결시간 120 분 실험조건에서 최저 산소농도 0.246 mass%인 TiH_1.924와 TiH_1.5의 혼합물이 제조되었다.

Titanium carbonitride (Ti(CxN1-x)) ceramics were prepared by hot pressing of the mixture of TiN and graphite. Hot pressing was performed in a graphite mold at 198$0^{\circ}C$ for 40 min under 44 MPa in N2 atmosphere. The effect of graphite addition on sinterability and the mechanical properties of titanium carbonitride were investigated. In this study, the solubility limit of graphite in Ti(CxN1-x) was slightly below 10 wt% based on the results of XRD analysis. Within the solubility limit, graphite dissolved completely into titanium nitride and formed the single phase Ti(CxN1-x) solid solution. Peak relative density of 99% and hardness of 16 GPa were observed for Ti(CxN1-x) ceramics with 7 wt% graphite while maximum flexural strength of 500 MPa and fracture toughness of 4.0 MPa.m1/2 were observed for Ti(CxN1-x) ceramics with 10 wt% graphite. The electrical resistivities of the ceramics with 7 wt% and 10 wt% graphite were observed 40 {{{{ mu OMEGA }}cm and 50 {{{{ mu OMEGA }}cm respectively.

A series of experiments has been carried out to investigate the effect of titanium, boron and nitrogen on the microstructure and toughness of simulated heat affected zone (HAZ) in quenched and tempered (QT) type 490MPa yield strength steels. For acquiring the same strength level, the carbon content and carbon equivalent could be lowered remarkably with a small titanium and boron addition due to the hardenability effect of boron during quenching process. Following the thermal cycle of large heat input, the coarsened grain HAZ (CGHAZ) of conventional quenched and tempered (QT) type 490MPa yield strength steels exhibited a coarse bainitic or ferrite side plate structure with large prior austenite grains. While, titanium and boron bearing QT type 490MPa yield strength steels were characterized by the microstructure in the CGHAZ, consisting mainly of the fine intragranular ferrite microstructure. Toughness of the simulated HAZ was mainly controlled by the proper Ceq level, and the ratio of Ti/N rather than titanium and nitrogen contents themselves. In the titanium­boron added QT steels, the optimum Ti/N ratio for excellent HAZ toughness was around 2.0, which was much lower than the known Ti/N stoichiometric ratio, 3.4. With reducing Ti/N ratio from the stoichiometric ratio, austenite grain size in the coarse grained HAZ became finer, indicating that the effective fine precipitates could be sufficiently obtained even with lower Ti/N level by adding boron simultaneously. Along with typical titanium carbo­nitrides, various forms of complex titanium­ and boron­based precipitates, like TiN­MnS­BN, were often observed in the simulated CGHAZ, which may act as stable nuclei for ferrite during cooling of weld thermal cycles

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the surface properties and biological response of an anodized titanium surface by cell proliferation and alkaline phosphatase activity analysis. Methods: Commercial pure titanium (Ti) disks were prepared. The samples were divided into an untreated machined Ti group and anodized Ti group. The anodization of cp-Ti was formed using a constant voltage of 270 V for 60 seconds. The surface properties were evaluated using scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and an image analyzing microscope. The surface roughness was evaluated by atomic force microscopy and a profilometer. The contact angle and surface energy were analyzed. Cell adhesion, cell proliferation, and alkaline phosphatase activity were evaluated using mouse $MC_3T_3-E_1$ cells. Results: The anodized Ti group had a more porous and thicker layer on its surface. The surface roughness of the two groups measured by the profilometer showed no significant difference (P>0.001). The anodized Ti dioxide ($TiO_2$) surface exhibited better corrosion resistance and showed a significantly lower contact angle than the machined Ti surface (P>0.001). Although there was no significant difference in the cell viability between the two groups (P>0.001), the anodized $TiO_2$ surface showed significantly enhanced alkaline phosphatase activity (P<0.001). Conclusions: These results suggest that the surface modification of Ti by anodic oxidation improved the osteogenic response of the osteoblast cells.

The effects of Cr and Fe addition on the mechanical properties of Ti-6Al-4V alloys prepared by direct energy deposition were investigated. As the Cr and Fe concentrations were increased from 0 to 2 mass%, the tensile strength increased because of the fine-grained equiaxed prior ${\beta}$ phase and martensite. An excellent combination of strength and ductility was obtained in these alloys. When the Cr and Fe concentrations were increased to 4 mass%, extremely fine-grained martensitic structures with poor ductility were obtained. In addition, Fe-added Ti-6Al-4V resulted in a partially melted Ti-6Al-4V powder because of the large difference between the melting temperatures of the Fe eutectic phase (Ti-33Fe) and the Ti-6Al-4V powder, which induced the formation of a thick liquid layer surrounding Ti-6Al-4V. The ductility of Fe-added Ti-6Al-4V was thus poorer than that of Cr-added Ti-6Al-4V.

To investigate behaviors of Ti and O elements and microstructures of anodic titanium oxide films, the films were prepared by anodizing pure titanium in $H_2$S $O_4$, $H_3$P $O_4$, and $H_2O$$_2$ mixed solution at 180V. The microstructures and chemical states of the elements were analyzed using SEM, X-ray mapping, AFM, XRD, XPS (depth profile). The films formed on a titanium substrate showed porous layers which were composed of pore and wall, And with increasing anodizing time a hexagonal shape of cell structures were dominant and solace roughness increased. From the XRD result the structure of the Ti $O_2$ layer was anatase type of crystal on the whole. In the XPS spectra it was found that Ti and O were chemically binded in forms of Ti $O_2$, TiOH, $Ti_2$ $O_3$ at Ti 2p, and Ti $O_2$, $Ti_2$ $O_3$, $P_2$ $O_{5}$, S $O_4^{2-}$ at O ls respectively. Concentration of Ti $O_2$ decreased as the depth increased from the surface of the oxide film towards the substrate, but to the contrary concentrations of TiOH and $Ti_2$ $O_3$ increased.d.

Titanium is the ninth most abundant element in the Earth's crust and is the fourth most abundant structural metal after aluminum, iron, and magnesium. It exhibits a higher specific strength than steel along with an excellent corrosion resistance, highlighting the promising potential of titanium as a structural metal. However, titanium is difficult to extract from its ore and is classified as a rare metal, despite its abundance. Therefore, the production of titanium is exceedingly low compared to that of common metals. Titanium is conventionally produced as a sponge by the Kroll process. For powder metallurgy (PM), hydrogenation-dehydrogenation (HDH) of the titanium sponge or gas atomization of the titanium bulk is required. Therefore, numerous studies have been conducted on smelting, which replaces the Kroll process and produces powder that can be used directly for PM. In this review, the Kroll process and new smelting technologies of titanium for PM, such as metallothermic, electrolytic, and hydrogen reduction of TiCl₄ and TiO₂ are discussed.
