Abstract

Isothermal oxidation experiments in air were performed on Ti-6Al-2Sn-4Zr-2Mo (Ti-6242) with a bimodal microstructure in the temperature range 811 K to 922 K (538 °C to 649 °C) for up to 500 hours, and α-case depths were quantified using metallography. Alpha-case depth followed a parabolic variation with time. Alpha-case depths in excess of 10 μm formed above 811 K (538 °C) and 100-hour exposures. An activation energy of 244 kJ/mol was estimated for diffusion of oxygen in the α phase of Ti-6242.
