Attention: At more than 9% aluminium dangerous brittle intermetallic phases can be developed This is the reason that titanium is only available with max. 8% Al. Titan das schwerste Leichtmetall
Attention: Not more than 0,1% O2 in titanium, otherwise: • no corrosion resistance • no weldability • no more ductility Titan das schwerste Leichtmetall
Attention: No H2 – enemy no. 1 !! Has to be less than 10-3 (0,001%) otherwise • Embrittlement • Drops out HYDRIDE PHASE Solubility H2 at 300°C = 18 weight% Solubility H2 at RTonly = 0,002 weight% Titan das schwerste Leichtmetall
Attention: No N2 ! Embrittlement starts at 0,3 weight% Oxygen equivalent contamination in (weight%) Q = (O2) + 2 (N2) + 2/3 (C) Hardness (HB) depends on (O2) : HB = 40 + 310 Q Titan das schwerste Leichtmetall
Tensile strength: Unalloyed titanium has 290 up to 740N/mm² Titan das schwerste Leichtmetall
Higher tensile strength is only achieved by alloying: unalloyed titanium Ti6Al4V other alloys Titan das schwerste Leichtmetall
( + ) = standard alloy since 1940 in USA start of production for the first time in 1954 - „Pratt+Whitney / General Electric“ at turbines (3.7164) = Ti 6Al 4V has 900 bis 1300 N/mm² 90% 6% 4% At 300°C long term performance is OK, but turbines have to fulfill higher demands - more about that later Titan das schwerste Leichtmetall
Selection of filler metal for welding Because of ductility choose always one grade/step „lower“ undermatched wire . Anyway the seam will be 50HB harder than the base material. Reason: unintentional amalgamation with O2/N2 Titan das schwerste Leichtmetall
Brazing: Most frequently silver-based Short dwell period required, otherwise phase- formation, for this reason small parts only. Brazing with: • Ti 15Ni 15Cu (953° – 970°C)fair wetting behavior, but corrosion resistance is ok, furthermore the mechanical properties are better. • Ti 48Zr 4Be (898° – 926°C)good wetting behavior, but worse brazing results for the rest • As solder for titanium you may also use: Al 99,5 / AlMn / AlSi 12 Ca. 680° – 690°C Titan das schwerste Leichtmetall
