Beryllium-Titanium Materials Optimization Program.

Abstract

Be/Ti alloy composites were developed having high tensile yield strength/proportional limit (> or = 40 ksi), 28 x 10 to the 6th power psi modulus and 3.32 g/cc density. Composite rods containing 133 and 259 filaments were tested containing filaments made from 4 grades of beryllium: P-1, HIP 50, HIP 70, and HP 40. The best combination of tensile yield strength/proportional limit and ductility was achieved using HIP 70 beryllium. (Author)
