“…This is important, as most of the literature dealing with TiC particle-reinforced TMCs presumes the formation of stoichiometric TiC and, hence, underestimates the real TiC particle contents that form during the solid-state reactions. Especially with respect to the studies of Lu et al [28] and Wang et al [29], their results could be reinterpreted as the reported increases in tensile strength probably occur due to the higher actual TiC 0.5 particle contents, and were not a result of the adjusted molar TiB:TiC ratio.…”

“…Despite these well-known relationships with respect to the solid-state reaction behavior between titanium and carbon, however, most reported studies dealing with TiC particle-reinforced TMCs assume the formation of stoichiometric TiC according to reactions (2) and (3), and further not considering the influences of the real TiC particle stoichiometry. For instance, Lu et al [28] and Wang et al [29] investigate the influence of the TiB:TiC ratio adjustment on the mechanical properties of particle-reinforced TMCs that were processed by liquid-solid reactions between titanium alloys and B 4 C and/or graphite, which served as reactive powders. For the adjustment of the TiB and TiC phase contents, they combined reactions (2) and (3) while assuming the formation of stoichiometric TiC and using graphite as an additional source of carbon to B 4 C. It was found that TMCs with a calculated adjusted molar ratio of TiB:TiC = 1:1 exhibited a higher tensile strength than the phase composition with minor TiC content.…”

Abstract:In-situ TiB/TiC particle-reinforced titanium matrix composites (TMCs) based on a near-β Ti-5Al-5Mo-5V-3Cr alloy (Ti-5553) were synthesized by solid-state reaction with B 4 C and graphite particles during spark plasma sintering (SPS). In this study, investigations were focused on the influence of the molar TiB:TiC ratio on the mechanical properties of the composites. With respect to the adjustment of the molar TiB:TiC ratio, the formation of stoichiometric TiC or nonstoichiometric TiC y was considered as the literature provides conflicting information in this respect. Furthermore, the solid-state reaction behavior influenced by the matrix alloying elements is discussed in comparison to a pure titanium matrix. The hardness, compressive strength and bending strength of the TMCs were improved successfully due to the TiB and TiC particles maintaining acceptable levels of ductility. However, X-ray diffraction experiments revealed that for the adjustment of the molar TiB:TiC ratio, the stoichiometry of the TiC y particles formed must be considered as nonstoichiometric TiC 0.5 resulted from the solid-state reaction of carbon and titanium. Compared to TMCs with pure titanium matrices, more sluggish solid-state reaction kinetics were observed. This was attributed to the matrix alloying elements molybdenum, vanadium and chromium, which formed solid solutions within the reinforcing particles.

“…[18][19][20][21] As an effective and important surface-treatment method, shot peening (SP) can introduce high residual compressive stress (RCS) and microstructure variation at near surface layers, which can enhance their fatigue properties compared to non-peened materials. The process of SP involves the bombardment of spherical balls of a hard material against the surface of components, which induces the strong elastic-plastic deformation at the surface and sub-surface regions.…”

Titanium matrix composites (TMCs) have wide application prospects in the field of aerospace, automobile and other industries because of their good properties, such as high specific strength, good ductility, and excellent fatigue properties. However, in order to improve their fatigue strength and life, crack initiation and growth at the surface layers must be suppressed using surface treatments. Shot peening (SP) is an effective surface mechanical treatment method widely used in industry which can improve the mechanical properties of a surface. However, artificial neural networks (ANNs) have been used as an efficient approach to predict and optimize the science and engineering problems. In the present study the effects of SP on TMC were modeled by means of ANN and the capability of the ANN in predicting the output parameters is investigated. A back-propagation (BP) error algorithm is developed for the network training. Data of experimental tests on the (TiB + TiC)/Ti-6Al-4V composite are employed in order to train the network. The volume fractions of the reinforcements (TiB + TiC) were 5 % and 8 %. ANN testing is accomplished using different experimental data thaat were not used during the network training. The distance from the surface (depth) and SP intensity are regarded as input parameters and residual stress and hardness of the Ti-6Al-4V before and after the SP and adding reinforcements are gathered as the output parameters of the network. A comparison was made between experimental and predicted data. The predicted results were in good agreement with experimental ones, which indicates that developed neural network can be used for modeling the SP process on TMCs.

High specific modulus materials are considered excellent for the aerospace industry. The system Ti-TiAl-B 4 C is presented herein as an alternative material. Secondary phases formed in situ during fabrication vary depending on the processing conditions and composition of the starting materials. The final behaviors of these materials are therefore difficult to predict. This research focuses on the study of the system Ti-TiAl-B 4 C, whereby relations between microstructure and properties can be predicted in terms of the processing parameters of the titanium matrix composites (TMCs). The powder metallurgy technique employed to fabricate the TMCs was that of inductive hot pressing (iHP) since it offers versatility and flexibility. The short processing time employed (5 min) was set in order to test the temperature as a major factor of influence in the secondary reactions. The pressure was also varied. In order to perform this research, not only were X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) analyses performed, but also microstructural characterization through Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). Significant results showed that there was an inflection temperature from which the trend to form secondary compounds depended on the starting material used. Hence, the addition of TiAl as an elementary blend or as prealloyed powder played a significant role in the final behavior of the TMCs fabricated, where the prealloyed TiAl provides a better precursor of the formation of the reinforcement phases from 1100 • C regardless of the pressure.
