Structure and Properties of a Titanium Powder Prepared by the Electrodispersion of VT20 Alloy Wastes in Distilled Water
摘要
Abstract
Particles of titanium powder prepared by the electrodispersion of VT20 titanium alloy wastes in distilled water are experimentally found to be spherical and elliptical in shape or exist as agglomerates. The average volumetric particle diameter is 26.3 μm, and the particle surface is cladded with oxygen. An analysis of the phase composition shows the presence of the main phases α-Ti and TiO and minor amounts of Ti2O3 and Ti3Al. The new electroerosive titanium spherical powder materials can efficiently be used for additive technologies.
