Abstract
The susceptibility of commercially pure (CP) to stress corrosion cracking (SCC) in seawater has been widely investigated under suitable laboratory testing conditions. Susceptibility is produced when the material contains certain levels of Al and/or O which increase the hardness and yield stress of the metal. Interstitial elements such as nitrogen and carbon affect the susceptibility in a similar way by their effect upon the mechanical properties. These have been related 2 to an equivalent oxygen content O*, where : O* = O + 2N + 2/3C (wt%). In this communication an attempt is made to investigate the effect of Fe additions on the susceptibility of titanium alloys of varying oxygen equivalent contents.
