| Abstract |
The present study is concerned with the fabrication and the microstructural analysis of a TiB₂/Ti surfacealloyed material fabricated by high-energy electron beam irradiation. The mixture of TiB₂ powders and flux was deposited on a Ti-10V-2Fe-3Al alloy substrate, and then electron beam was irradiated on these mixture using an electron beam accelerator. The melted region of about 1.5 ㎜ thickness was homogeneously formed without pores or cracks, and was composed of primary and eutectic TiB borides in the β phase matrix. The formation of these TiB borides greatly improved hardness, especially high-temperature hardness up to 450℃. These findings suggested that the surface-alloying method using high-energy electron beam irradiation was economical and useful to the development of new advanced materials with improved high-temperature properties. |
