Enhanced strength and corrosion resistance in as-cast TA10 alloys via interstitial carbon solute

The addition of interstitial elements generally has a significant impact on the macroscopic performances of structural alloys. Here, we report a systematic study on the microstructure, corrosion behaviors and mechanical properties of a series of as-cast Ti-0.3Mo-0.8Ni- x C ( x  = 0.09, 0.12 and 0.15...

description The addition of interstitial elements generally has a significant impact on the macroscopic performances of structural alloys. Here, we report a systematic study on the microstructure, corrosion behaviors and mechanical properties of a series of as-cast Ti-0.3Mo-0.8Ni- x C ( x  = 0.09, 0.12 and 0.15 wt.%) alloys. A typical basket-weave microstructure appears in all specimens, characterized by the lamellar α -phase and intergranular retained β -phase without TiC precipitates within the prior β grain boundary. Based on the electrochemical and immersion tests, doping with C element can significantly improve the corrosion resistance of TA10 alloys; with increasing the carbon content, the passivation current density decreases from 5.750 to 4.938 μ A·cm ^−2 , the breakdown potential increases from −1.115 to −1.223 V versus SCE, the corrosion rate reduces from 15 mm/a to 7.5 mm/a. Moreover, the mechanical properties of TA10 alloys, such as the strength and hardness, can also be enhanced via C alloying. Our results indicate that the addition of interstitial elements should be a potential effective mean to accommodate the comprehensive performances of TA10 alloys.
