Summary: | The structure and elemental composition of titanium foil annealed in an inert ambient
in the presence of hydrocarbons are studied by optical microscopy and scanning
electron microscopy. The heat treatments carried out are simulated the synthesis
process of multi-walled carbon nanotubes. As a result of the treatments, the plasticity
of the material under study is significantly reduced. It is shown that the structure
of the foil changes as a result of annealing. With an increase in the annealing
temperature, an increase in carbon and oxygen concentrations is observed, and
the hardness of the material increases significantly, which is probably due to the
formation of titanium oxide and titanium carbide in the foil structure. |
