Abstract:
The investigated specimens were made by compression of titanium powder. They were burnt in a nitrogen atmosphere. Channels were detected below the specimen surface burnt in a spin regime. The dimension s of the spin combustion site were estimated, and the nitrogen pressure effect on the site dimensions was determined within the range 100–1800 torr. Data were obtained on the degree of metal nitrating and the phase composition of the layer, traversed by the spin site, and of the other specimen layers as a function of their distance from the surface.
