摘要

To further investigate the corrosion behavior of titanium alloys at high temperatures, this study successfully utilized Electron Beam Freeform Fabrication (EBF) technology to fabricate a near-α type TA1/TC4 titanium alloy. The alloy was immersed in mixed salt solutions (NaCl + Na₂SO₄) of varying concentrations and forms, and subjected to a molten salt corrosion test at 750 °C for 50 h to explore the corrosion mechanisms of this alloy. The experimental results indicate that the chloride (Cl⁻) and sulfate (SO₄²⁻) ion concentrations in the mixed salt solution significantly affect the sulfur-chlorine cycle reactions during corrosion. Observations of the affected layer depth revealed that, in a molten salt environment, the titanium alloy tends to form a loose, non-protective TiO₂ layer, accompanied by the formation of sulfides such as TiS₂. Additionally, Cl⁻ ions promote the generation of volatile TiCl₄. Consequently, the corrosion-affected layer under high-concentration salt solutions is significantly enhanced.
