Titanium Alloy Sheet Strength Classification!

I. Strength Grading of Titanium Alloy Sheets


Low Strength: Industrially pure titanium, corrosion-resistant structural components, chemical equipment;


Medium Strength: Aerospace sheet metal parts, hydraulic pipes;


High Strength: Aircraft load-bearing structural components, missile components.


II. Key Performance Influencing Factors 


1. Alloy Composition Design


Aluminum: TA15 contains 6.0%–7.0% aluminum, significantly improving high-temperature strength; Grade 5 Ti-6Al-4V Titanium Sheet / Grade 7 Ti-0.2Pd Titanium Sheet / Gr9 Ti-3Al-2.5V Titanium Sheet


Vanadium/Chromium: TB5 contains 14%–16% vanadium + 2.5%–3.5% chromium, strengthening β-phase stability.


2. Process Control


Forging Process: Multi-directional forging refines grains, reducing the crack rate of TC4 sheets by 40%;


Heat Treatment: TC4 strength increases to 1200MPa after aging treatment.


3. Impurity Control


Oxygen content ≤0.15%, iron content ≤0.3%, avoiding brittle phase precipitation.


III. Strength Requirements in Application Scenarios


Aerospace: High-temperature strength > 600MPa. Rocket fuel tanks, engine blades;


Marine Engineering: Corrosion resistance + tensile strength ≥ 750MPa, ship hulls, pressure hulls;


Military Equipment: Ultra-high strength > 1300MPa, missile structural components, armor lining;


IV. Strength and Plasticity Balancing Technology


Welding Performance: TB6 welded joint strength reaches over 90% of the base metal, with an elongation of 8%–12%;


Rolling Optimization: TC4 sheets use β-phase hot rolling + double annealing, increasing elongation by 12%.
