IGNITABILITY OF ALLOYS OF THE ZIRCONIUM-TITANIUM SYSTEM

Abstract

The autoignition temperature of zirconium with titanium alloys was determined experimentally and an ignition diagram of the Zr-Ti system was formulated. An approximate expression of the autoignition temperature dependence of the alloy upon its composition was found and it was established that Zi-Ti, Ti-Al, and Ti-Mn systems satisfactorily submit to that dependence. Ignition of Zr-SI and Ti-Si alloys deviates sharply from the found dependence which is presumably explained by the formation of high melting silicides.
