  • Surface characterization of titanium hydride powder
    Paulin, Irena ...
    Titanium hydride is well known for its stability in air because of formation of thin TiO[sub]2 oxide layer on top of TiH[sub]2 powder particles. Formation of the oxide layer is directly related to ... high affinity of Ti to oxygen and it can be formed in few seconds also on top of TiH[sub]2 particles in low vacuum. On the other hand, thickness of TiO[sub]2 layer on the formed TiH[sub]2 powder is in the range of 130 nm. Esistence of oxide layer on top of powder particles was confirmed with AES, XPS and EDXS cross section line scans. Formation of thin oxide was confirmed also with calculations based on chemical and TG analyses.
