20、of pour hydrogen. Lower hydrogen may be obtained by negotiation with the manufacturer.CSingle values are maximum. The percentage of titanium is determined by difference.DOther elements need not be reported unless the concentration level is greater than 0.1 % each, or 0.4 % total. Other elements may
21、not be added intentionally. Other elements may be present in titanium or titaniumalloys in small quantities and are inherent to the manufacturing process. In titanium these elements typically include aluminum, vanadium, tin, chromium, molybdenum, niobium, zirconium, hafnium, bismuth, ruthenium,palla
22、dium, yttrium, copper, silicon, cobalt, tantalum, nickel, boron, manganese, and tungsten.EThe purchaser may, in the written purchase order, request analysis for specific elements not listed in this specification.B3670924.1.4 Options in the specification, and4.1.5 Supplementary requirements desired,
23、including thestandards of acceptance.5. Materials and Manufacture5.1 Materials for this specification shall be melted byconventional processes used for reactive metals. Typical meth-ods include the consumable electrode and induction-slag,plasma arc, induction-skull, and electron beam melting pro-ces
24、ses.6. Chemical Composition6.1 Pour AnalysisAn analysis of each pour shall be madeby the producer from a sample such as a casting or test bar thatis representative of the pour. The chemical composition deter-mined shall conform to the requirements specified for therelevant grade in Table 1.6.1.1 The
25、 elements listed in Table 1 are intentional alloyadditions or elements which are inherent to the manufacture oftitanium sponge, ingot or mill product.6.1.1.1 Elements other than those listed in Table 1 aredeemed to be capable of occurring in the grades listed in Table1 by and only by way of unregula
26、ted or unanalyzed scrapadditions to the ingot melt. Therefore product analysis forelements not listed in Table 1 shall not be required unlessspecified and shall be considered to be in excess of the intentof this specification.6.1.2 Elements intentionally added to the melt must beidentified, analyzed
27、, and reported in the chemical analysis.6.2 When agreed upon by the producer and the purchaserand requested by the purchaser in his written purchase order,chemical analysis shall be completed for specific residualelements not listed in this specification.6.3 Product AnalysisProduct analysis toleranc
28、es do notbroaden the specified heat analysis requirements, but covervariations between laboratories in the measurement of chemi-cal content. The producer shall not ship material which isoutside the limits specified in Table 1 for the applicable grade.Product analysis limits shall be as specified in
29、Table 2.6.4 SamplingSamples for chemical analysis may be madeby the purchaser on a representative casting from any lot. Dueto the possibility of oxygen or other interstitial contamination,samples for oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen analysisshall be taken no closer than14 in. (6.3 mm) to a cas
30、t surfaceexcept that castings too thin for this shall be analyzed onrepresentative material. The chemical composition determinedshall conform to the analysis in Table 1 within the checkanalysis variations shown in Table 2 or shall be subject torejection by the purchaser.7. Heat Treatment7.1 Unless o
31、therwise specified in the contract, all castingswill be supplied in the as-cast condition except when post-weldheat treatment is required.7.2 If post-weld heat treatment is required, it shall consist ofa stress relief performed at 1075 6 25F (580 6 14C) forGrades C-2, C-3, C-7, C-8, C-12, C-16 and C
32、-17, and 1200 625F (650 6 14C) for Grades C-5, C-6, C-9, C-18, and C-38.Time at temperature shall be a minimum of12 h plus anadditional12 h at temperature per inch of thickness for sectionsizes greater than 1 in. (25 mm). After heat treatment, thecastings should be cooled in air or in the furnace to
33、 ambienttemperature unless otherwise agreed upon between the pur-chaser and producer.8. Methods of Chemical Analysis8.1 The chemical analysis shall normally be conductedusing theASTM standard test methods referenced in 2.1. Otherindustry standard methods may be used where the ASTM testmethods in 2.1
34、 do not adequately cover the elements in thematerial or by agreement between the producer and purchaser.Alternate techniques are discussed in Guide E 2626.9. Workmanship, Finish, and Appearance9.1 All castings shall be made in a workman-like mannerand shall conform to the dimensions in drawings furn
35、ished bythe purchaser before manufacturing is started. If the pattern issupplied by the purchaser, the dimensions of the casting shallbe as predicted by the pattern.9.2 The surface of the casting shall be free of adhering moldmaterial, scale, cracks, and hot tears as determined by visualexamination.
36、 Other surface discontinuities shall meet the visualacceptance standards specified in the order. Practice A 802/A 802M or other visual standards may be used to defineacceptable surface discontinuities and finish. Unacceptablesurface discontinuities shall be removed and their removalverified by visua
37、l examination of the resultant cavities.10. Repair by Welding10.1 If repairs are required, these shall be made using awelding procedure and operators certified to quality require-ments established by the producer. The procedures developedshall be consistent with standard practices recommended forrea
38、ctive metal alloys. The producer shall maintain documenta-tion on procedure and welder qualifications. Procedure modi-fications or special arrangements shall be as agreed uponbetween the producer and the purchaser.10.2 The composition of the deposited weld metal shall bewithin the chemical requireme

41、red capable of addingstresses that will interfere with the purpose for which thecastings are intended. The decision for stress relieving shall bemade by the producer, unless otherwise agreed upon. Thestress-relief cycle shall be in accordance with 7.2 followed byair or furnace cooling to room temper
42、ature, or as agreed uponbetween the purchaser and the producer.10.2.2 Grade C-5 (Ti-6Al-4V), Grade C-6 (Ti-5Al-2.5Sn),Grade C-9, Grade C-18, and C-38 castings shall be stress-relieved after weld repair, if the weld defect or excavation isthrough a wall or exceeds 1 in.3(16.4 cm3) of deposited metal.
43、All welds on Grade C-12 (Ti-.3Mo-.8Ni) castings shall bestress-relieved after weld repair. The stress-relief cycle shall bein accordance with 7.2.10.2.3 Hot isostatic pressing (HIP) may be substituted forrequired thermal treatment provided all requirements for thattreatment are met, and temperatures
44、 detrimental to the materialproperties are not reached.11. Referee Test and Analysis11.1 In the event of disagreement between the manufacturerand the purchaser on the conformance of the material to therequirements of this specification, a mutually acceptable ref-eree shall perform the tests in quest
45、ion using the ASTMstandard methods in 2.1. The referees testing shall be used indetermining conformance of the material to this specification.12. Inspection12.1 The producer shall afford the purchasers inspector allreasonable facilities necessary to satisfy him that the materialis being produced and
46、 furnished in accordance with thisspecification. Foundry inspection by the purchaser shall notinterfere unnecessarily with the producers operations.12.2 If the results of any chemical or mechanical propertytest lot are not in conformance with the requirements of thisspecification, the lot may be ret
47、ested at the option of theproducer. The frequency of the retest will double the initialnumber of tests. If the results of the retest conform to thespecification, then the retest values will become the test valuesfor certification. Only original conforming test results or theconforming retest results
48、 shall be reported to the purchaser. Ifthe results for the retest fail to conform to the specification, thematerial will be rejected in accordance with Section 13.12.3 For purposes of determining conformance with thespecifications contained herein, an observed or a calculatedvalue shall be rounded off to the nearest unit in the lastright-hand significant digit used in expressing the limitingvalue.
