Resumen
The present work deals with the synthesis and analysis of Ti(100-x)Mgx
(x = 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100 at%) alloys obtained by Ball Milling (BM) and
High Pressure Torsion (HPT).
These processing techniques have been used in this research because to
the low solubility (less than 2% Fig. 1) and a big difference in their melting
points (Ti1668°C, Mg650°C). It was found that pure Ti and rich Ti(75,50)Mg(25,50)
alloys transforms to a metastable fcc phase when stearic acid (SA) is added
as a Process control agent (PCA). It was also found that Mg accelerates this
phase transformation. Moreover,
combining BM and HPT the
formation of the fcc phase could be
obtained in less time. By using NaCl
as a PCA a different hcp phase could
be obtained. Therefore, the resulting
phase of Ti-Mg alloys will be
dependent according to the synthesis
method as well as the nature of PCA
and its concentration.
