Development of titanium alloys by the method of complex alloying

We study the effect of alloying on the mechanical properties of welded joints and base metal of titanium alloys of the system Ti-Al-Mo-V-Cr-Fe. We also formulate the theoretical aspects and principles of complex alloying of titanium alloys and the theory of alloying of additive materials for the welding of α-, (α + β), and β-alloys. It has been shown that (α + β)-(VT23) and β-(VT19) structural titanium alloys, developed on the basis of the proposed theory of complex alloying, provide high weight efficiency of construction of present-day flying vehicles.
