Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for processing titanium alloys and, more particularly, beta titanium alloys.
  • the method of the present invention includes cold working a beta titanium alloy and subsequently direct aging the alloy for less than 4 hours.
  • titanium alloys allow their use in applications requiring high corrosion resistance, high strength, and low material weight.
  • applications requiring corrosion resistance often utilize low-strength unalloyed titanium mill products.
  • Unalloyed titanium may be fabricated into equipment used in, for example, chemical processing, desalination, and power generation.
  • high performance applications often utilize high-strength titanium alloys in a very selective manner depending on several design factors including weight, strength, ductility, and reliability requirements.
  • alloys intended for high performance applications normally are more stringently processed, with resulting additional cost, than titanium for corrosion service.
  • a titanium alloy may be classified as one of several metallurgical types, for example, alpha, near-alpha, alpha-beta, or beta.
  • Beta titanium alloys are particularly useful in aerospace structures. Hot worked beta titanium alloys may be cold worked to final or near final form. The cold working process imparts high strength levels and/or a favorable ductility/strength relationship in the alloys.
  • Certain “Aerospace Material Specifications”, AMS 4957A and AMS 4958A, define recommended processing conditions for the beta titanium alloy Ti-3Al-8V-6Cr-4Zr-4Mo (referred to herein as Ti-38-644 alloy) to produce round bar or wire primarily for use as aerospace coil springs.
  • Ti-38-644 alloy includes, by weight, 3.0 to 4.0% aluminum, 7.5 to 8.5% vanadium, 5.5 to 6.5% chromium, 3.5 to 4.5% molybdenum, 3.5 to 4.5% zirconium, maximum 0.14% oxygen, maximum 0.05% carbon, maximum 0.03% nitrogen, and remainder titanium.
  • AMS 4957B requires certain additional restrictions on alloy composition, including maximum 0.30% iron, maximum 0.10% palladium, maximum 300 ppm hydrogen, maximum 50 ppm yttrium, and maximum total residual elements 0.40%. According to the AMS specifications, the alloy is aged by heating to a temperature within the range of 850° F. to 1050° F. (454° C.
  • the required minimum tensile properties determined according to ASTM E8 or ASTM E8M, as applicable, depend on the nominal diameter of the round bar or wire final product, but in no case are to be less than minimum tensile strength of 180 ksi, minimum elongation of 8%, and minimum reduction of area (“RA”) of 20%.
  • a titanium alloy is of the alpha, near-alpha, alpha beta, or beta metallurgical type is influenced by the chemical composition of the alloy, the applied heat treatment, and other factors.
  • the metallurgical type designations refer to the predominant crystalline phase present in the microstructure of the alloy at room temperature. Titanium metal has a close packed hexagonal crystal structure (“hcp”), referred to as “alpha”, at room temperature. This structure may be transformed to a body-centered cubic (“bcc”) crystal structure (“beta”) at elevated temperatures. The temperature at which this transformation occurs is referred to as the “beta transus temperature”.
  • the beta transus temperature for a commercially pure titanium alloy is approximately 1625° F. (885° C.).
  • alpha stabilizers elements that favor the alpha structure
  • beta stabilizers elements that favor the beta structure
  • Aluminum for example, is an alpha stabilizer and, therefore, adding aluminum to a titanium alloy increases the beta transus temperature.
  • Chromium, iron, molybdenum, and vanadium are beta stabilizers, and their addition lowers the beta transus temperature, stabilizing the beta structure at lower temperatures.
  • the relative amounts of alpha and beta stabilizers in an alloy and the heat treatment applied to the alloy determine whether the microstructure of the alloy is predominantly single alpha phase, single beta phase, or a mixture of alpha and beta phases over a particular temperature range.
  • the properties of a titanium alloy are related to its microstructure.
  • Two-phase alpha-beta alloys generally exhibit tensile strengths greater than single-phase alpha alloys or single-phase beta alloys.
  • alpha-beta alloys can be further strengthened by heat treatment because the microstructure may be manipulated by controlling heating, quenching, and aging cycles.
  • beta titanium alloys are alloyed with more than one beta stabilizer. With sufficient quantities of beta stabilizer, and suitable control over heat treatment and cooling, beta phase may be retained at relatively low temperatures, below the alloy's normal beta transus temperature. For example, beta phase may be retained in a titanium alloy by rapid cooling from above and through the beta transus temperatures, such as by quenching. However, the titanium alloy must have sufficient quantities of beta stabilizers to prevent the beta phase from transforming to alpha phase by martensitic transformation. Titanium alloys containing beta stabilizers in quantities sufficient to reduce the alloy's martensitic transformation temperature to below room temperature but not sufficient to reduce the beta transus to below room temperature are known as “metastable” beta titanium alloys. Metastable beta titanium alloys may maintain at least a portion of beta structure after heat treatment and cooling to room temperature. As used herein, references to a beta titanium alloy are to a metastable beta titanium alloy as described above.

  • cold working is defined as various working processes performed at a temperature below an effective aging temperature of the alloy. Cold working of a titanium alloy, therefore, may be performed at temperatures below the beta transus temperature of the alloy.
  • Cold working permanently deforms the work piece, which does not return to its original shape when the load causing the deformation is removed.
  • the degree of cold working typically, is determined by the percentage reduction in cross-sectional area of the work piece.
