A Rational Approach to Welding Titanium: A Note on Argon‐Arc Butt Welding of Commercially Pure Titanium Sheet without Filler Rod

Aircraft Engineering and Aerospace Technology - Tập 27 Số 11 - Trang 371-375

Tóm tắt

SUCCESSFUL welding of commercially pure titanium and its alloys has, so far, been difficult to achieve, and this is largely due to the affinity this metal has for embrittling constituents, e.g. hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen and carbon, at high temperatures.
