Neutron diffraction study of the Ti1-xMoxC alloy

Abstract In this work, the crystal structure and (RMSD) root-mean-square displacement of atoms in new cubic refractory interstitial alloys Ti0.74Mo0.26C Ti0.70Mo0.30C were determined by neutron diffraction. These are obtained powder metallurgy sintering fine powders titanium carbides TiC molybdenum MoC. The values RMSD these alloys, methods least squares full-profile analysis from diffraction data, turned out to be identical. They much larger than stoichiometric alloy, which has a similar close geometric parameters with alloys. explained occurrence large static distortions lattice alloy due differences masses atomic radii elements.
