Diffusion of nitrogen in solid titanium at elevated temperature and the influence on the microstructure

Nitrogen introduction to solid commercially pure titanium has been carried out at 1650 °C in an electric induction furnace using two different methods. An effective way to avoid the formation of the hard and brittle nitride layer (TiN and Ti2N) is reported. Microstructure and microhardness were exam...
