Abstract

Ti-10V-2Fe-3Al (Ti-10-2-3) alloy was produced via electrochemical reduction of TiO2 - FeTiO3 - V2O5 - Al2O3 mixed oxide preforms in a pre-electrolysed, molten calcium chloride electrolyte at 1173 K. Electrolysis voltages of 1500 to 3100 mV were applied for times ranging from 6 to 24 hours across a graphite anode and Grade 2 commercial purity (CP) titanium cathodic current collector, which supported the ceramic precursors. The microstructure and chemistry of the precursor and as-reduced, near-beta alloy were characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray energy dispersive spectrometry (X-EDS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD).
