Abstract
Abstract
A number of titanium alloys considered suitable for use in Mach II and III transports were tested for resistance to stress corrosion in the presence of chlorides. These included 4A1-3Mo-1V, 6A1-4V, 8A1-1M0-1V, 5A1-2.5Sn and RS-140. Samples were exposed stressed (smooth and fatigue pre-cracked) at 600, 700 and 800 F (316–427 C) 100 hours for smooth and 50 hours for precracked specimens. Welded and heat-treated specimens were among those tested.
All alloys were found susceptible to stress corrosion cracking. Welding appeared to increase susceptibility, but existing fatigue cracks did not seem to increase susceptibility.
