Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to high strength and ductile alpha/beta titanium alloys. DESCRIPTION OF THE BACKGROUND OF THE TECHNOLOGY
- Titanium alloys typically exhibit a high strength-to-weight ratio, are corrosion resistant, and are resistant to creep at moderately high temperatures. For these reasons, titanium alloys are used in aerospace, aeronautic, defense, marine, and automotive applications including, for example, landing gear members, engine frames, ballistic armor, hulls, and mechanical fasteners.
- Titanium and titanium alloys are attractive materials for achieving weight reduction in aircraft applications because of their high strength-to-weight ratio.
- Most titanium alloy parts used in aerospace applications are made from Ti-6AI-4V alloy (ASTM Grade 5; UNS R56400; AMS 4928, AMS 491 1 ), which is an alpha/beta titanium alloy.
- Ti-6AI-4V alloy is one of the most common titanium-based
- Ti-6AI-4V alloy is used in a number of applications that benefit from the alloy's advantageous combination of light weight, corrosion resistance, and high strength at low to moderate temperatures.
- Ti-6AI-4V alloy is used to produce aircraft engine components, aircraft structural components, fasteners, high- performance automotive components, components for medical devices, sports equipment, components for marine applications, and components for chemical processing equipment.
- Ti-6AI-4V alloy mill products are generally used in either a mill annealed condition or in a solution treated and aged (STA) condition.
- the "mill- annealed condition” refers to the condition of a titanium alloy after a "mill-annealing" heat treatment in which a workpiece is annealed at an elevated temperature (e.g., 1200- 1500°F / 649-816°C) for about 1 -8 hours and cooled in still air.
- a mill-annealing heat treatment is performed after a workpiece is hot worked in the ⁇ + ⁇ phase field.
- Round bar of Ti-6AI-4V alloy having a diameter of about 2 to 4 inches (5.08 to 10.16 cm) in a mill-annealed condition has a minimum specified ultimate tensile strength of 130 ksi (896 MPa) and a minimum specified yield strength of 120 ksi (827 MPa), at room temperature.
- Mill annealed Ti-6AI-4V plate is often produced to specification AMS 491 1
- mill annealed Ti-6AI-4V bar is often produced to specification AMS 4928.

- the '655 alloys surprisingly may be cold worked to achieve high strength while retaining a workable level of ductility.
- a workable level of ductility is defined herein a condition wherein an alloy exhibits greater than 6% elongation.
- the strength of the '655 alloys is comparable to that which can be achieved with " ⁇ -6 ⁇ - 4V alloy.
- the tensile stress measured for a Ti-6AI-4V alloy is 145.3 ksi ( ,002 MPa), whereas tested samples of '655 alloys exhibited tensile strengths in a range from 138.7 ksi to 142.7 ksi (956.3 MPa to 983.9 MPa).
- Aerospace Material Specification 6946B (AMS 6946B) specifies a more limited chemistry range than is recited in the claims of the '655 patent.
- the alloys specified in AMS 6946B retain the formability of the broader elemental range limits of the '655 patent, but the mechanical strength property minimums allowed by AMS 6946B are lower than those specified for commercially available Ti-6AI-4V alloy.
- the minimum tensile strength for 0.125 inch (3.175 mm) thick Ti-6AI-4V plate is 134 ksi (923.9 MPa) and the minimum yield strength is 126 ksi (868.7 MPa).

- the present inventors unexpectedly discovered that providing the present alloy with minimum levels of aluminum, oxygen, and iron greater than minimum levels taught in the '655 patent provides an alpha/beta titanium alloy that consistently exhibits mechanical properties, such as strength, for example, at least comparable to certain mechanical properties of mill annealed Ti-6AI-4V alloy.
- the inventors also unexpectedly discovered that increasing the minimum levels and narrowing the ranges of iron and vanadium relative to those minimums and ranges disclosed in the '655 patent provides alloys that exhibit an optimal and controlled balance of the volume fractions of the alpha and beta phases in a mill annealed form.
- This optimal balance of phases in the alpha/beta titanium alloys according to the present disclosure provides embodiments of the alloys with improved ductility compared to Ti-6AI-4V alloys, while retaining the ductility of alloys disclosed in the '655 patent and specified in AMS 6946B.
- a person skilled in the art understands that strength and ductility of metallic materials generally exhibit an inverse relationship. In other words, in general, as the strength of a metallic material increases, the ductility of the material decreases.

- VAR vacuum arc remelting
- PAM plasma arc melting
- EB electron beam cold hearth melting
- the ingot compositions produced in this Example 1 had aluminum equivalent values ranging from about 6.0 to about 7.1 .
- the ingots were processed using various hot rolling practices into hot rolled bars and wire having diameters between 0.25 inch (0.635 cm) and 3.25 inch (8.255 cm). Hot rolling was conducted at starting temperatures between 1550°F (843.3°C) and 1650°F (898.9°C). This temperature range is below the alpha/beta transus temperature of the alloys of this example, which is about 1750°F to about 1850°F (about 954.4°C to about 1010°C), depending upon the actual chemistry. After hot rolling, the hot rolled bars and wire were annealed at 1275°F (690.6°C) for one hour, followed by air cooling. The diameter, aluminum concentration, iron concentration, oxygen concentration, and calculated Al, of each of the bar and wire samples produced in Example 1 are provided in Table 2.
- FIG. 1 graphically displays room temperature ultimate tensile strengths
- FIG. 1 also includes trend lines through the UTS, YS, and %el data points determined by linear regression, !t is seen that both average strength and the average percent elongation increase with increasing Al eq . This relationship is surprising and unexpected as it is counter to the generally observed relationship that increasing strength is accompanied by decreasing ductility.
- Typical Ti-6AI-4V minimums for UTS and YS are 135 ksi (930.8 MPa) and 125 ksi (861 .8 MPa), respectively.
- the YS for the inventive samples listed in Table 2 ranged from about 125 ksi for a sample with Al eq of about 6.0, up to about 141 ksi for a sample with Al eq of about 7.1 .
- a sample having Al eq of about 6.4 exhibited YS of about 130 ksi (896.3 MPa).
- the UTS for the inventive samples listed in Table 2 ranged from about 135 ksi for a sample with Al eq of about 6.0, up to about 153 ksi for a sample with Ale q of about 7. .
- a sample having Al eq of about 6.4 exhibited YS of about 41 ksi (972 MPa).
- Wire sample nos. 9-1 1 from Example 1 having a diameter of 0.5 inch (1 .27 cm) and aluminum equivalent values of about 6.5, about 6.8 and about 7.15, were tensile tested at room temperature. The results of the tensile tests are displayed graphically in FIG. 2. All of these samples exhibited tensile and yield strengths that are comparable to or higher than strengths exhibited by commercial Ti-6AI-4V alloy. As with FIG. 1 , it is seen from FIG. 2 that increasing Al eq results in increased strength, along with an increase in average percent elongation. As discussed above, this trend is surprising and unexpected because it is counter to the generally observed relationship that increasing strength is accompanied by decreasing ductility. There is less scatter in the data of FIG. 2, which is representative of testing done on samples of the same size, as compared with FIG. 1 , which is representative of testing done on samples of various sizes, because mechanical properties are influenced to some degree by the size of the test sample.
- Hot rolled 1 inch (2.54 cm) thick plate samples were fabricated from ingots manufactured according to steps described in Example 1 .
- the alloys ingots had compositions within the ranges listed in the "Non-Limiting Embodiments according to the Present Disclosure" column in Table 1 above, with aluminum and oxygen concentrations and aluminum equivalent values as listed in Table 3.
- All hot rolling temperatures were below the alpha/beta transus temperatures of the alloys.
- the alloys had Al eq values from about 6.5 to about 7.1.
