Effect of pre-dissolved hydrogen on fracture initiation in metastable beta Ti-3Al-8V-6Cr-4Mo-4Zr

  • 1. Univ. of Virginia, Charlottesville, VA (United States)

Description

Hydrogen embrittlement (HE) in certain β-Ti alloys has been conclusively attributed to either the formation of a brittle hydride or the raising of the ductile to brittle transition temperature (DBTT) by hydrogen. Yet there remains a need to understand the mechanism(s) governing HE in solution heat treated + aged (STA) metastable beta alloys that do not show either of these two phenomena. Therefore, the possibility of additional mechanisms needs to be addressed to understand HE of β-Ti alloys at these intermediate H concentrations
