Abstract
Corrosion resistance of sintered titanium alloy Ti–6Al–4V in different structural states was investigated by gravimetric and electrochemical methods in 20 % aqueous solution of hydrochloric acid. By changing the technological parameters in the process of manufacturing the sintered alloy, it was possible to control its porosity in the range of 1…4 %. A general tendency of slowing down of the corrosion processes with decrease in porosity was established. It is shown that reducing the volume fraction of pores to 1…2 %, as well as spheroidizing them and reducing their size increase the corrosion resistance. Ref. 9, Tabl. 2, Fig. 6.
Keywords: titanium alloy Ti–6Al–4V; powder metallurgy; powder; titanium hydride; hydrochloric acid; corrosion resistance
