Influence of very accelerated heating on the structure and properties of VT23 and VT22 alloys

In this work accelerated heating by the electrical contact method was used in thermal cycling treatment of titanium alloys (VT23 and VT22) with an original coarse-grained structure. The microstructure of the alloys was investigated by metallographic and X-ray diffraction analyses. In addition the hardness was measured and the fracture toughness determined
