Abstract

The liquidus and invariant reaction temperatures were measured by thermal analyses for Bi-Ti alloys containing 0-65 at.% of Ti. The liquidus temperatures were clearly much lower than the literature values. Equilibrium experiments showed the existence of a new phase, Bi2Ti3. However, the reported Bi3Ti2 phase was not observed in the present study. The temperatures of the peritectic reaction involving Bi2Ti, Bi9Ti8, and Bi2Ti3 were also clarified to be 425, 930, and 970 °C, respectively. Thus, a new phase diagram of the Bi-Ti system was constructed.
