Abstract

The oxidation kinetics of titanium-hydride powders were studied in the temperature range of 298–1378 K in air at atmospheric pressure. DTA, DSC, X-ray analysis, and scanning electron microscopy were used. Oxidation was found to take place by TiHxOy oxyhydride phases formation. The oxidation reaction rate at temperatures above 870 K was limited by diffusion of oxygen atoms through a rutile scale formed on the surface. The activation energy and preexponential values of the Arrhenius equation for different interaction stages as well as transformation enthalpies were calculated.
