Abstract

The influence of mechanical activation and gamma-irradiation on the structural-phase state of Ti-Al-C powder reagents was studied. The following compositions were used for research: 1) 78% Ti + 14% Al + 8% C; 2) 80% Ti + 12% Al + 8% C; 3) 81% Ti + 10% Al + 9% C. Mechanical activation of these compositions leads to an increase in the diffuse background, a decrease in the intensity of diffraction reflections of mixture components and a broadening of peaks, as well as micro-deformations. Depending on the ratio of components, the structural parameters can either increase in comparison with the initial ones, or decrease. The effect of gamma radiation with a dose rate of 1 Gy/s and accumulated dose of 3·104 Gy on the mechanocomposites of the Ti-Al-C system causes unsystematic change in crystal lattices of elements, which can be explained by radiation-stimulated diffusion. Gamma-irradiation also reduces micro-deformations that occur after mechanical activation, while crystallites of the components remain nanoscale.
