Abstract
- We determined the phase diagram and the equation of state (EoS) of TiH 2 at high pressures up to 8.7 GPa and high temperatures up to 600 °C by in situ synchrotron radiation X-ray diffraction measurements. Compression induced strain inhibited the phase transition from the low-temperature bct phase to the high-temperature fcc phase, making the phase diagram difficult to determine. However, heating around 600 °C relieved the strain, and the phase boundary between the bct and fcc phases was elucidated. The phase transition temperature at ambient pressure increased from around room temperature to 200 °C at 8.7 GPa. The high temperature Birch–Murnaghan EoS was determined for the fcc phase. With the pressure derivative of the bulk modulus K ′ 0 = 4.0, the following parameters were obtained: ambient bulk modulus K 0 = 97.7 ± 0.2 GPa, ambient unit cell of the fcc phase V 0 = 88.57 ± 0.02 A 3 , temperature derivative of the bulk modulus at constant pressure (∂ K /∂ T ) P = −0.01 ± 0.02, and volumetric thermal expansivity α = a + bT with a = 2.62 ± 1.4 × 10 −5 and b = 5.5 ± 4.5 × 10 −8 . K 0 of fcc TiH 2 was close to those for pure Ti and bct TiH 2 reported in previous studies.
