Comparison of Fluorination Treatments to Improve the High Temperature Oxidation Resistance of TiAl Alloys in SO2 Containing Environments

Article Preview

Abstract:

Surfaces of titanium aluminides were treated by fluorine either physically using Plasma Immersion Ion Implantation (PI³) or chemically with a F-based polymer. By controlling the fluorination parameters, both treatments improve the oxidation resistance even in the presence of sulfur dioxide (0.1 vol%). No sulfur was detected in the oxide scale although thermodynamic calculations predict the formation of sulfides. The inward diffusion of oxygen and nitrogen in the alloy was found to be reduced in the presence of SO2.
