2.6 Ti-Al-V system<br />

A preliminary assessment of various modeling approaches to the Ti­Al­V system has<br />

been performed in close cooperation with the University of Manchester/UMIST. The<br />

focused work on that alloy system is now carried out by that <strong>COST</strong> partner. This<br />

agreement has also strengthened our focused work on the N­containing ternary edge<br />

systems of the quaternary Ti­Al­V­N system.<br />

2.7 Ti-Ni-N system<br />

The Ti­Ni­N phase diagram has been thermodynamically assessed. The liquid and<br />

the recently found ternary compound Ti 2 NiN x by [95Fri] have been modeled. It is<br />

found that the discrepancies of the experimental <strong>da</strong>ta between [9 IB in] and [79Fuk]<br />

are due to the different experimental conditions. They are essentially in good<br />

agreement. A number of missing key experiments are identified by the preliminary<br />

calculations. These experiments have been performed in close cooperation by the<br />

Universität Wien. This work is close to completion, and the publications are in<br />

preparation.<br />

2.8 Ti-Al-Ni system<br />

A thermodynamic assessment of the Ni­rich part of the Ti­Al­Ni system has recently<br />

been provided by our <strong>COST</strong> partner, the LTPCM-ENSEEG , Grenoble [95Dup]. The<br />

purpose of our work is to use this as a basis for the development of a thermodynamic<br />

<strong>da</strong>taset for the entire composition range. Experimental <strong>da</strong>ta on the Ti­Ni­Al system<br />

have been thermodynamically evaluated to plan new key experiments in order to<br />

obtain reliable <strong>da</strong>ta for optimization of the system in the composition region less than<br />

50 at.% Ni. Part of the experimental work was carried out at our <strong>COST</strong> partner<br />

Universität Wien. Further experimental work is being carried out currently at TU<br />

Clausthal. All the experimental work is <strong>do</strong>ne in close cooperation with our partner at<br />

the Universität Wien, involving also the exchange of a graduate student for 3 months.<br />

The purposes are mainly to check the tielines Ti 3 Al­H(TiNi 2 Al) and λ(ΤίΝίΑΙ)-<br />

Ti 2 Ni, and determine the phase relationships of the π(Τί 5 Νί 2 Α1| 3 ) phase and its<br />

stability. These key <strong>da</strong>ta will allow for a final thermodynamic modeling of the entire<br />

ternary system. Work is in progress and will be published in due course by the end of<br />

our project.<br />

3. Applications<br />

3.1 Ti-Al-N system<br />

3.1.1 AIN/Ti interface reaction: Joining of A1N with Ti-braze [97Zenl]<br />

Since A1N and Ti are not in equilibrium at high temperatures, interfacial reactions<br />

will occur when A1N is joined by titanium braze. Fig. 11 in Appendix III shows the<br />

calculated isothermal section of the Ti-Al-N system at 1200°C and the imposed<br />

reaction path of the AIN/Ti contact system in accor<strong>da</strong>nce with [95E1S]. This path has<br />
