New VAR (Vacuum Arc Remelting) Process for TB8 Ti Alloy with High Molybdenum Content
New VAR process for preparing TB8 Ti alloy with high molybdenum content was presented. Firstly
commercial pure Mo powder was directly added into the alloy to prepare TB8 alloy ingot
and then based on using proper raw material and optimized VAR parameters
TB8 alloy ingot with high Mo content was prepared successfully. The alloy ingot was examined at different locations by composition testing and microstructure observation as well as XRD analysis. The results show that the alloy ingot exhibits homogeneous composition distribution
and the absence of inclusion and segregation of Mo element can be observed. The new VAR process is greatly superior to conventional process in raw material cost
