Study on Mechanism of Phase Forming in Ni⁺ Implantation into Ti6Al4V at Elevated Temperature

Abstract:

Recently, due to the prediction of the forming phase only focuses on the case which a simple metal ion implants into a single metal matrix, we will study that a simple metal ion is implanted into alloy matrix in this paper. The forming phases in Ni⁺ implantation into Ti6Al4V at elevated temperature will be predicted by the effective heat of formation (EHF) model. The results show that the prediction is consistent with the experimental findings, the first-phase is TiNi with the most negative EHF, the second-phase is Ti₂Ni which component concentrations of Ni limited element is lower and locates on the left in the Ti-Ni binary alloy phase diagram, and the TiNi₃ phase is not found in the experiment. Simultaneously, we explain correctly why the Ni-Al or Ni-V phases don’t generate in Ni⁺ implantation into Ti6Al4V at elevated temperature.
