Research Abstract |
A better understanding is required to identify the effects of the Ti-6Al-4V alloy structure on hydrogen embrittlement behavior. Microstructural factors appear to be the volume ratio of primary alpha phase to the matrix phase consisting of retained beta martensite, the structures of the matrix phase, the configuration of the matrix phase, and the primary alpha grain size. The purpose of the present study is to clarify the effects of these structures on the hydrogen embrittlement behavior. Compact tension specimens were cathodically charged in a 50 mol/m^3 H_2SO_4 solution under the condition of a current density of 2kA/m^2 during sustained loading. No aging treatment was carried out to simplify the structures. The time to a given creck growth length was evaluated as the susceptibility to the hydrogen embrittlement on stage ll in the relation between crack growth rate and stress intensity factor, by eliminating the region of unstable crack growth and initial creck growth. The susceptibility to the hydrogen embrittlement of the present alloy is found to be enhanced by the increase in the volume ratio of the primary alpha phase to the matrix phase, the continuity of the beta phase,and the multiplication of the primary alpha grain size.
