Abstract Commercial pure titanium plates with different grain orientations were successfully bonded to carbon steel plates by diffusion bonding. The Ti/steel interfaces were carefully characterized by scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive spectroscopy, electron backscattered diffraction, and X-ray diffraction. The results revealed that TiC was generated at the Ti/steel interface during the diffusion bonding process. The thickness of the TiC layer increased with increasing diffusion temperature and holding time. Furthermore, the orientation of the Ti grains influenced the activation energy for the growth of TiC and affected the thickness of the TiC layer at the Ti/steel interface. The anisotropic growth of the TiC layer was explained by the interstitial diffusion mechanism of C atom in α-Ti. Moreover, the TiC layer acted as a barrier layer at Ti/steel interface, inhibiting the diffusion of Fe atoms into α-Ti. An increased diffusion temperature reduced this barrier effect, leading to the formation of FeTi and Fe 2 Ti at TiC/Ti interface. Highlights • Thickness of TiC at Ti/steel diffusion bonded interface is influence by grain orientation of Ti. • The formation of FeTi and Fe 2 Ti can be suppressed because of formation of TiC. • Elevated diffusion temperature impairs the barrier effect of TiC.
