Abstract
In the article the results of experimental pack siliconizing of titanium grade 2 alloys were presented. The powders containing low (10 wt. %) and high (48 wt. %) silicon content were used. The aluminium and magnesium fluorides were used as activators. The thickness of silicide coatings produced using the low-Si content powder did not exceed 5 µm. The use of high Si content pack enabled to form thick (15 µm) multilayer coating formed from TiSi, Ti5Si4, Ti5Si3 and TiSi2 silicides.
