Abstract:

Phase I The current heat treatment for 6 Al 4V was modified to obtain the maximum strength without beta embrittlement. Tensile tests were conducted to determine the increase in strength obtained. Phase II This part of the investigation was cancelled in lieu of a literature search for other titanium alloys with greater heat treatment response and hardenability. Author
