Abstract

The work presents for the first time the results of obtaining titanium carbide using a vacuum-free electric arc method using various types of biocarbon obtained by classical pyrolysis of biomass waste, such as tangerine peel, pomelo peel, banana peel, pine nut shells, walnut shells. Analysis of X-ray diffraction patterns of the synthesized materials showed the repeatability of the experiment with the receipt of diffraction maxima indicating the formation of a cubic structure of titanium carbide. An analysis of the thermal oxidation of the resulting powders showed that up to a thousand degrees the process proceeds quite slowly, but with increasing temperature the oxidation rate increases significantly. It has been established that during thermal heating in an oxidizing environment, the mass of the studied titanium carbide powders obtained using various types of carbon increases, which is confirmed by thermogravimetric analysis.
