The experimental results show that TiAl3 was the only observed phase at Ti/Al interface. The interface thermodynamics favored the preferential formation of TiAl3 in Ti/Al couple. The growth of TiAl3 layer occurred mainly towards Al foil side and exhibited a parabolic law. Using the interdiffusion coefficients calculated based on the contribution of grain boundary diffusion, the growth of TiAl3 was simulated numerically with the finite difference method, and the simulated results were in good agreement with the experimental ones.展开更多
