Abstract

Al-Ti based porous materials were successfully synthesized via a combination process of evaporation and hot pressing, utilizing zinc powder as space holder, from Al-25at. % Ti element powders. The phase composition, porous structure, expansion behavior, and porosity were investigated under various evaporation times. Dominant phase Al3Ti exhibited cubic or long strip microstructures with the action of zinc, and the diffraction peaks continuously enhanced with the extension of evaporation time. The results illustrated that porous Al3Ti intermetallic compounds with open porosity of 66.9% could be prepared by adding 20vol. % zinc powder, while volume expansion was only 16.4%. It was confirmed that two types of pore structure could be observed, including large pores and small pores. Furthermore, the processed porous materials presented a uniform, labyrinth-like network structure.
