To aid in quick identification and easy location of specific technical data and information in the various reports and memoranda which have been prepared and distributed by the Defense Metals Information Center, as well as by DMIC's forerunner, the Titanium Metallurgical Laboratory, a classification by major subject matter was prepared. The classification covers reports through DMIC Report 193 and memoranda through DMIC Memorandum 183. (Author).
A brief study of delayed fracture in a seam-welded titanium panel is summarized in this memorandum. Examination of the fracture surface with electron microscopy showed that the material cleaved, failing in a brittle manner. Although the nature of the embrittlement was not clearly defined, titanium hydride phase was suspected as a prime contributor to failure. Even though the hydrogen content of the titanium was only 65 ppm, hydride embrittlement was thought to have occurred from precipitation of hydride platelets on crystal planes oriented normal to welding stresses. Other work, briefly discussed in the memorandum, has confirmed that hydride platelets in titanium can be oriented by stress and that tensile ductility of Zircaloy (which behaves similarly with respect to hydrogen, to titanium) depends upon hydride orientation. Stress-relief annealing of welded titanium structures is recommended wherever possible to minimize embrittlement by stress-oriented hydrides. (Author).
