Fabrication and Heat Treatment
Welding
Weldability of grade 7 Ti-0.15Pd alloy is rated as excellent. This alloy is a single-phase material, hence the microstructure of the alpha phase is not affected by thermal treatments or welding temperatures.
Annealing
Annealing of this material can be performed by heating to 650-760°C (1202-1400°F) for 6 min -2 h and then air cooled. In case stress relieving is required, the material has to be heated to 480-595°C (896-1103°F) for 15 min – 4 h, and then air cooled.
Applications
Grade 7 Ti-0.15Pd alloy is used in the following application areas:
- Anode/cathode/cell components
- Chemical processing equipment
- Air pollution control equipment
- Pulp/paper bleaching/washing equipment
- Hydrometallurgical extraction/electrowinning
- Desalination, brine concentration/evaporation
