Abstract
A synthetic titanium-corundum composite includes a titanium alloy and a coherently bonded corundum phase. The titanium alloy includes at least one elemental titanium solid solution and the atomic percentage of aluminum in the titanium alloy ranges from 0.5% to 24.5%.
Claims13
A synthetic titanium-corundum composite, comprising:
- a titanium alloy, the titanium alloy being a first reaction product of an uncontrolled exothermic reaction from a mixture comprising reactant aluminum, titanium oxide, and at least one grain refiner;
- and
- a coherently bonded corundum phase, the coherently bonded corundum phase being a second reaction product of said uncontrolled exothermic reaction,
- wherein the titanium alloy comprises at least one elemental titanium solid solution,
- wherein the atomic percentage of the aluminum in the titanium alloy ranges from 0.5% to 24.5%;
- and
- wherein the at least one of the elemental titanium solid solution is α-titanium.
