Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of alloy material processing, and in particular relates to a production process of a TC4 titanium alloy cold-rolled strip coil. Background Art
[0002] Titanium alloys can be classified according to their organization or performance. The classic method is to classify titanium alloys into α-type, α+β-type and β-type according to the organizational characteristics after annealing. With the improvement of the alloying degree of titanium, various countries have successively developed some new titanium alloys with excellent performance. The classic classification method can no longer meet the actual needs, so titanium alloys are more finely classified into α-type, near-α-type, α+β-type, near-metastable β-type and metastable β-type according to the metastable phase composition.
[0003] TC4 titanium alloy is the most widely used titanium alloy. Due to its high strength and low plasticity, the plate production adopts sheet rolling.
