Summary:The reaction between boron trichloride vapour and titanium has been investigated in the temperature range 200–1350°C in sealed glass capsules and by a flow method, in which at the higher temperatures an electrically heated filament served as the reaction site. Under the various experimental conditions, titanium diboride, and titanium tetra- tri- and dichlorides have been obtained as reaction products. Their formation has been related to the experimental conditions and reconciled with the thermochemical properties of the system. In a closed reaction system at ∼450°C the formation of a metallic titanium mirror takes place by an unknown vapour transport and deposition process.
