Abstract

We have studied the effect of nitrogen on oxidation of titanium diboride in air. By thermodynamic analysis of the reaction in the TiB2 – air system, we have established that the oxide film is layered. When the air content in the system is less than 50 mass%, the predominant reaction products are boron and titanium nitrides, which suggests a special role for nitrogen during oxidation.
