Abstract:
The assessed phase diagram of Ti-C system shown in Fig. 1
is taken from [1998Oka]. Other recent work was done on this
system by [1995Alb], [1996Sei1], and [1996Jon]. The system
consists of two terminal solids aTi and b Ti and a refractory
monocarbide TiC. Since there is a tendency of carbon ordering
at the compositions below stoichiometry, the phase Ti2C does
not appear in the phase diagram. Other phases present are liquid
and graphite (C). Two eutectic and one peritectoid reaction
appear in this system at 1646, 2776, and 920 °C, respectively.
