Abstract
Powder metallurgically produced Ti-48% Al-2%W alloys were oxidized between 800 and 1050°C in air. The W-addition was quite effective in providing isothermal and cyclic oxidation resistance. The alloys oxidized parabolically up to 1050°C during isothermal oxidation, with small weight gains. The scales were adherent up to 900°C during cyclic oxidation. Oxide scales consisted primarily of an outer TiO2 layer, an intermediate Al2O3 layer, and an inner (TiO2+Al2O3) mixed layer. Tungsten was present below the intermediate Al2O3 layer. and also at the scale-matrix interface as W-enriched compounds. Below the oxide scale, a Ti3Al zone containing some W and O existed.
