Abstract

Ensuring high quality of titanium alloy production dictates the development of new standard samples for hydrogen content, selection of the grade of material for their manufacture and the method of hydrogenation. In this work, the processes of hydrogen saturation of VT5, VT14 and VT22 titanium alloy samples by the electrochemical method (cathodic hydrogenation) have been studied. The paper provides the results of analysis of the degree of hydrogen saturation of the VT5, VT14 and VT22 samples, as well as the effect of the leveling annealing on the content of the β-phase fraction in the VT14 alloy samples. Hydrogen content has been measured using the emission spectral analysis.
