The spark plasma sintering (SPS) microstructure and high temperature oxidation behavior of TiH2-45Al-0.2Si-5Nb(at.%) alloy were investigated.Emphasis was placed on the effect of SPS microstructures, obtained by blend powder and mechanical alloying powder. The mass gain due to oxidation was measured using an electro balance. The oxide layers as well as its micro-structure were examined by SEM and EDS, and XRD. The results show that sintered microstructure of blend powder is composed of fully lamellar TiAl/ Ti3Al phase, and that of the mechanical alloying powder is composed of finer granular TiAl/Ti3Al phase. The latter oxidation rate is lower, and forms continuous mixed oxide layer of Al2O3 and TiO2. Both SPS microstructure of blend powder and mechanical alloying powder are superior in oxidation behavior to ordinary vacuum sintering.

This paper describes the structure and properties of an innovative Fe-Al-Si alloy with a reduced amount of silicon (5 wt. %) in order to avoid excessive brittleness. The alloy was produced by a combination of mechanical alloying and spark plasma sintering. Nickel and titanium were independently tested as the alloying elements for this alloy. It was found that wear resistance, which reached values comparable with tool steels, could be further improved by the addition of nickel. Nickel also improved the high-temperature oxidation behavior, because it lowers the liability of the oxide layers to spallation. Both nickel and titanium increased the hardness of the alloy. Titanium negatively influenced oxidation behavior and wear resistance because of the presence of titanium dioxide in the oxide layer and the brittle silicides that caused chipping wear, respectively.

This paper aims to research the high-temperature oxidation behavior of TiC/Mo composite. Adding 5 wt.% TiC, Mo-based composite was prepared by Spark Plasma Sintering. The composite was oxidized at different temperatures (400°C, 600°C, 800°C, 1000°C and 1200°C) and times (5 min, 10 min, 20 min, 30 min and 60 min). When oxidation was at 400-1000°C for 20 minutes, the degree of oxidation intensifies with the increase of temperature, and TiO2 was observed at 1000°C. While the temperature was 1200°C, the oxidation rate gradually decreased with the increase of time. The result shows that the formation of TiO2 can inhibit the oxidation process.

In this study, the high temperature oxidation behavior of polycrystalline MoSi2 in a low-pressure atmosphere was investigated. Polycrystalline MoSi2 was produced by the spark plasma sintering process. Oxidation tests were carried out at 1500°C at either 10Torr or 760Torr in an Ar-20%O2 atmosphere. For both conditions, the weight change peaked at the initial oxidation stage, and then their weights gradually increased with increasing oxidation time. The sample weight became heavier in the ambient pressure than in the low-pressure, but the evaporation oxidation was not significant in the low-pressure condition. After the low-pressure oxidation tests, the formation of Mo5Si3 in the MoSi2 substrate was identified. The oxidation resistance of MoSi2 at 1500°C is discussed based on the obtained results.
