Abstract

Compression tests were performed at room temperature to investigate the effects of hydrogenation temperature on compressive properties of Ti6Al4V alloy treated by continuous multistep hydrogenation treatment (CMHT). Pressure-composition isotherms and microstructures were also studied. Results showed that the equilibrium hydrogen pressure increased, and the hydrogen absorption rate decreased with the increase of hydrogenation temperature. The amounts of β phase and α” martensite increased first and then decreased when Ti6Al4V alloy was treated by four times CMHT with the increase of hydrogenation temperature. Hydrogenation temperature played a different role on the compressive properties of CMHT-treated Ti6Al4V alloy. The ultimate compression of Ti6Al4V alloy treated by 11 times CMHT at 850 °C increased by 83.3 % as compared to the as-received Ti6Al4V alloy. The compressive properties of Ti6Al4V alloy were dependent on the amounts of different phases and microstructures when Ti6Al4V alloy was treated by CMHT at different temperatures.
