Using optical metallography, electron microscopy, X-ray analysis and X-ray
microspectral analysis, we have developed a procedure for studying structural and phase
transformations in the material of steam turbine blades from titanium alloy VT6 after
technological treatments. An attempt was made establish a link between resistance to erosion
destruction and structural and phase composition of titanium alloys.
Keywords: microhardness, phase composition, steam turbine blade, titanium alloy |
