Titanium alloy swarf has considerable potential as a raw material for the production of powders of titanium and its refractory compounds. This paper employs a trial batch (200 kg) of titanium carbide of nonstoichiometric composition made under industrial conditions for the production of TK grade hard metals. The compositions of VT-3-1 titanium alloy swarf and of titanium carbide, complex carbide and T5K10 alloy produced from it are presented. The results of metallographic analyses of the experimental batches of T5K10 alloy specimens are shown.
