Abstract:Binary titanium alloys containing Nb or Ta, which are allergy-free and non-toxicity elements, were fabricated, and then the possibility of their application to various music instruments made of brass was investigated by the evaluation of corrosion characteristics, elastic modulus-density ratio E/r , resonance frequency f and internal friction Q Ϫ1. The practical models of the mouthpieces of the trumpets made of the binary titanium alloys were also fabricated by precision casting method in order to compare dire… Show more
