General characteristics

Titanium alloys are classified according to the configuration of the crystal lattice in the form hexahedron — α-lattice in the shape of a cube — β, mixed state — α+β. Grade of titanium VT3−1 belongs to a+ß alloys containing such alloying elements as aluminium and 6.3%, copper — 1.5%, molybdenum — 2.5%, silicon — 0.3%, iron — 0.5 per cent. Aluminum is the primary alloying element in titanium alloys almost all brands. It is relatively cheap, readily available, and its density less than the density of titanium, so the amount of specific strength of the material is enhanced, in this case — without loss of ductility. With increasing aluminum content increases the modulus of elasticity and heat resistance, and also decreases the tendency to hydrogen embrittlement. Supplements of molybdenum increase corrosion and chemical resistance, heat resistance, suppress in the hardening of the formation of α-phase. When a fairly large amount of β-stabilizers reduces the formation of α-phase without neutral reinforcers and α-stabilizers.

Manufacturing titanium wire, circle and bar is normalized to GOST 27265−87. The surface should be dark spots, places of narotra. The color of the products should be clean and bright, with no shades of tint. Formed during the annealing of waviness is not a marriage.

Dignity

Wire, rod, round VT3−1 have high corrosion and chemical resistance, heat resistance, negligible temperature coefficient of expansion, lightness and flexibility. Fatigue resistance depends on the external environment. Titanium alloys in vacuum have higher endurance than in air. On the cyclic endurance of the material is greatly influenced by the quality and condition of the surface. It means the macro — and micro-unevenness, roughness, structural physico-mechanical stability of the surface layers, dependent on the modes of machining. The endurance limit is influenced by the ultimate gentle mechanical treatment with removal of the thinnest shavings of 0.1 mm and further hand polished with a copper skin to 8−9 CL roughness.

Disadvantages

The main disadvantage is the high labour intensity of production. Titanium melts only in vacuum or inert gases, as a liquid melt actively interacts with any of the atmospheric gases. Wire, rod, round VT3−1 are difficult to machining, and their strength (390−540 MPa), is not the tallest.

Application

Wire, rod, round VT3−1 used for the production of the most critical parts that can withstand extreme conditions in aircraft, rocket production, shipbuilding. In the petrochemical, chemical, oil and gas industry is crucial acid resistance and corrosion resistance of the material, and in agriculture, medicine, food industry — biological inertness.
