Abstract

Titanium carbide coatings were synthesized by reacting with titanium powders in NaF-NaCl based salt on surface of graphite at 1100-1400 °C in argon (Ar). The effect of temperature of heat treatment on TiC coatings properties was studied. Phase composition and microstructure of the TiC coatings were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The “template-growth” mechanism plays a dominant role in the coating formation process.
