| Abstract Scope |
The effect of applied potential on the electrodeposition of Ti-Al alloys was studied. Four different potentials (-2, -2.5, -3, and -3.5 V) were studied at a constant temperature of 110°C and a stirring speed of 120 rpm for a duration of 4 h under a vacuum atmosphere. The cathode current density during the electrolysis was recorded as a function of time. It was found to be significantly higher under a vacuum atmosphere compared to an argon atmosphere. The Ti content in the Ti-Al alloys increased with higher applied potentials. At potentials of -3 V and -3.5 V, the resulting alloys exhibited a nano-laminar structure with a width of 200 nm with 40 atom% Ti. The reproducibility of the experimental results was confirmed by repeating the experiments several times, confirming consistent outcomes. |
