Abstract

The possibility of transforming a large-plate structure and creating a gradient structure in samples of titanium alloy VT23 during thermal hydrogen treatment has been studied. It is shown that by varying the concentration-time parameters of hydrogenation annealing, it is possible to regulate the depth of hydrogen penetration and purposefully form the structure of near-surface layers. Subsequent low-temperature vacuum annealing makes it possible to transform the coarse-plate structure into a finely dispersed one with a hardness of up to 40 HRC. It was established that the thickness of a layer with a finely dispersed structure during unidirectional hydrogenation with a barrier coating is twice as large as during volumetric nonequilibrium hydrogenation in the absence of a coating.
