Abstrakt: SHS hydrogenation of titanium sponge in various modes of hydrogen deficiency and excess is investigated. According to data of the time-of-flight mass spectroscopy, a nonuniform H distribution is found over the sponge bulk during the synthesis in the H deficiency mode and a uniform one is found in the H excess mode. The surface structure of the Ti sponge before and after SHS hydrogenation is compared by SEM. An increase in structure lamination compared with the initial sponge is found for the hydrogenated sponge irrespective of the H content. Layers acquire a regular geometric shape and are arranged in a definite order with a repeated motif. Distances between the layers vary from the micron to nanometer sizes. The phase formation mechanism during the hydrogenation of titanium is investigated by time-resolved X-ray diffraction. The final product is formed through a series of intermediate phases according to the solid-phase mechanism: α-Ti → α-Ti[H] → β-Ti[H] → TiH. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
