AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The patent describes a process that can make titanium boride particles very small and evenly distributed throughout titanium or titanium alloy powder. This process eliminates the need for blending and solid state reaction, which can affect the quality of the powder. By making the titanium boride particles small and evenly distributed, the resulting powder has better mechanical properties and can be used for a variety of applications. This process is unique and cannot be achieved with other methods.

Problems solved by technology

The technical problem addressed in this patent is the improvement in strength, stiffness, and microstructural stability of titanium alloys through the addition of small amounts of boron. The challenge is to achieve a uniform distribution of titanium boride without forming larger particles that adversely affect properties, while also avoiding the need for a separate blending or pre-alloying process. The current methods of blended elemental addition and pre-alloyed powders have shortcomings such as imperfect distribution and size of the boride particles. The patent aims to provide a new method for producing titanium boride-containing alloys with improved properties.
