TC4
The composition of titanium alloy TC4 material is Ti-6Al-4V, which belongs to (α+β) type titanium alloy. TC4 titanium alloy is based on titanium and adds other alloy elements.An alloy composed of aluminum and vanadium. It has the advantages of low density, high specific strength, good corrosion resistance, good process performance, etc., and has good comprehensive mechanics. Mechanical properties make it an ideal structural material for aerospace engineering. Greater than strength. The strength of TC4 is sb=1.012GPa, the density is g=4.51g/cm3, and the ratio The strength sb/g=23.5, while the specific strength sb/g of alloy steel is less than 18.
