THE CYCLIC OXIDATION AND HARDNESS CHARACTERISTICS OF THERMALLY EXPOSED TITANIUM PREPARED BY INDUCTIVE SINTERING-ASSISTED POWDER METALLURGY

The Cyclic Oxidation and Hardness Characteristics of Thermally Exposed Titanium Prepared by Inductive Sintering-Assisted Powder Metallurgy

The oxidation and hardness of thermally exposed titanium (Ti) prepared using inductive sintering-assisted powder metallurgy was evaluated through cyclic tests in air at 700−900 °C for 100 h (5 cycles).In general, the oxidation Polos kinetics of the Ti samples followed the parabolic law and their oxidation rates increased with increasing
