Abstract
This paper presents the results of an experimental and computational study on interdiffusion and related structure-property changes in 304 L stainless steel/Ti–5Ta–2Nb system. Diffusion annealing treatments were carried out in the temperature range of 873–1173 K, above and below the β transus temperature of Ti. The formation of σ, FeTi and Fe2Ti phases at the interface as well as stabilization of α-Fe and β-Ti in 304 L SS and TiTaNb respectively has been unambiguously established in this study. Growth kinetics of the reaction zones has been determined and effective interdiffusion coefficients in various phases were calculated using Wagner's approach. Temperature dependant variations in the mechanical property of the base materials and diffusion couples have also been predicted using JMatPro® and compared with literature. Finally, the evolution of microstructure at the interface and diffusion path in the diffusion couples were compared with SS/Ti based diffusion bonded joints and explosive clads to understand the interdiffusion behavior under equilibrium and non-equilibrium conditions.
