THE MAKING OF TITANIUM AND TITANIUM-ALLOY SHAPES BY CASTING, POWDER METALLURGY, AND OTHER PROCESSES,

Abstract

The state of the art of making titanium and titanium-alloy shapes by methods other than machining from wrought materials is reviewed. The methods covered are casting, powder metallurgy, metal spraying, electroforming and chemical vapor deposition. Of these methods only casting and powder metallurgy are being used to any great extent or offer a great deal of promise. Metal spraying may have some very specialized applications. In their present state of development electroforming and chemical vapor deposition are not promising methods for making titanium parts. (Author)
