In situ diffraction study on decomposition of Ti2AlN at 1500–1800 °C in vacuum

The susceptibility of Ti2AlN to thermal dissociation at 1500–1800 °C in high-vacuum has been studied using in situ neutron diffraction. Above 1500 °C, Ti2AlN decomposed to TiNx primarily through the sublimation of aluminium (Al). The kinetics of isothermal phase decomposition at 1550 °C was modelled...
