TRANSCRIPT

Titanium

• Melts at 1670°C• Density 4.51 g cm-3

• 80% of Ti used in aerospace• Use restricted to < 400°C

body-centred cubic stable above 890 oC

hexagonal close-packed stable below 890 oC (c/a = 1.587)

titanium heat-exchangers

roll-bonded, explosion-clad, loose-lined

Alloying

• stabilisers•Mo, V, W

• stabilisers•Al, O

• stabilisers (eutectoid)•Cu, Mn, Fe, Ni, Co, H

fine hydrides near the surface of cold rolled titatnium.
