Phase composition and structure of hydrogenated titanium alloy VT6 after vacuum annealing
Phase composition and structure analyses have been carried out on hydrogenated samples of VT6 (Ti-6,25Al-4,1V, wt.%) titanium alloy after low-temperature vacuum annealing. It has been shown that nanoscale α-phase particles can precipitate in (α+β)-structure upon low-temperature vacuum annealing if preceding hydrogenation process was ended in β-area and as a result a single β-phase structure was kinetically achieved at room temperature.
