Abstract

Low cost titanium alloy compacts were produced via the powder metallurgy approach through the hydride – dehydride process and hot consolidation (hot pressing and hot isostatic pressing). The conditions of the reversible hydride – dehydride process were determined by X-ray and scanning electron microscopy characterisation of powders. Powders were consolidated both above and below the β transformation temperature. The morphology of the microstructure, and the presence of open and closed pores, as well as residual particles of hydrides and oxides have a direct influence on the mechanical properties of compacts (tensile properties and impact toughness).
