Preparation of Low Cost Ti-6Al-4V Alloy by Gelcasting

Article Preview

Abstract:

Ti-6Al-4V alloy was prepared by gelcasting. Plasma rotating electrode and hydrogenation-dehydrogenation Ti-6Al-4V powders were mixed used to meet both high performance and low cost objectives. The morphological properties were investigated by SEM. The results showed that the gelcasting green body with mixed powders has advantages of high solids loading and excellent sinterability. After sintered at 1400°C for 2h, the relative density reached 98%. The bending strength and hardness were 313MPa and 49.8(HRC).
