| Abstract: | The microstrueture and various hydrides precipitated in Ti-6A1-4V alloys containing hydrogen 0.16,0.58,0.87,1.49 wt-%,respectively,have been studied by means of TEM and X-ray diffraction.The Ti_3Al phase may precipitate when H over 0.58 wt-%.In the same time,the morphology of hydrides gradually changed from rugged sheets to narrow laths as H contents increased.The microstructure of highly H-doped alloys is obviously fine.A mas- sive hydride and the hydride with tetragonal lattice were observed in the specimen containing 1.49 wt-%H.The twin hydrides were found in the alloys with different H contents and the electron diffraction patterns of the twin hydrides can be served as a simple criterion for distin- guishing the cubic and tetragonal structures. |
