Microstructural evolution and mechanical properties of the Ti–6Al–4V alloy produced by vacuum hot-pressing

Abstract: Abstract:In this work, the properties of the titanium industry workhorse, the Ti-6Al-4V alloy, processed by vacuum hot-pressing are studied. More in detail, relative density, microstructure characterisation and chemical analysis, precisely oxygen, nitrogen and carbon content, as well as flexural properties and hardness are considered. Components with relative density as high as 98% and mechanical properties similar to the wrought alloy, where these properties are affected by the formation of a reacted layer du… Show more

“…In order to strengthen the titanium alloy, different alloying elements like Sn, Zr (neutral stabilizer), Al, O, N, C (α stabilizer), Mo, V, Ta, Nb (β isomorphous stabilizer) and Fe, Mn, Cr, Co, Ni, Cu, Si, H, (β eutectoid stabilizer) are added [2,3]. The material having high strength-to-weight ratio, high stiffness, good corrosion resistance [4][5][6][7][8], good weldability, and high resistance to temperature is Ti6Al4V alloy [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19], which was developed by adding 6 % aluminium (α stabilizer), 4 % vanadium (β stabilizer), and remaining titanium in the year 1954 [20,21]. Nowadays, titanium alloys (Ti6Al4V -two-phase α, β alloys) are greatly used in different industries: aircraft, spacecraft, marine, automotive, biomedical, chemical, etc.…”
