Abstract

Rockwell hardness (HRC) studies have been accomplished on samples cut from sheets of metastable-b-titanium alloy VT47 after isothermal exposures (ageing) upon a wide range of temperatures and exposure durations. A diagram and C-shaped alloy hardness curves have been plotted, and a comparative assessment of hardness values with a microstructure was carried out. It has been established that VT47 alloy is hardened significantly (≥40 HRC) by ageing in the temperature range of 400–500°С. The temperature range of 450–500°Сcan be considered to be the most rational from the standpoint of achievable hardness values and required ageing times.
