摘要

Since titanium has high affinity for hydrogen and reacts reversibly with hydrogen,the precipitation of titanium hydrides in titanium and its alloys cannot be ignored.Two most common hydride precipitates in α-Ti matrix are γ-hydride and δ-hydride,however their mechanisms for precipitation are still unclear.In the present study,we find that both γ-hydride and δ-hydride phases with different specific orienta-tions were randomly precipitated in the as-received hot forged commercially pure Ti.In addition,a large amount of the titanium hydrides can be introduced into Ti matrix with selective precipitation by using electrochemical treatment.Cs-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy is used to study the precipitation mechanisms of the two hydrides.It is revealed that the γ-hydride and δ-hydride precipita-tions are both formed through slip + shuffle mechanisms involving a unit of two layers of titanium atoms,but the difference is that the γ-hydride is formed by prismatic slip corresponding to hydrogen occupy-ing the octahedral sites of α-Ti,while the δ-hydride is formed by basal slip corresponding to hydrogen occupying the tetrahedral sites of cα-Ti.
