Material Optimization and Manufacturing Development of Reduced Cost Powder Metal Titanium Alloy Components for Gas Turbine Engine Application, Phase 2-SBIR

Abstract

This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program has demonstrated the economic benefits of the cold-hot isostatic pressing (CHIP) powder metallurgy (P/M) materials and manufacturing technology to produce lightweight titanium alloy components. Tooling was developed and a turbine engine bearing housing preform and a tank track pin were produced. The study also established a data base of the static and dynamic mechanical properties as a function of the chloride impurity level of the commercially available elemental titanium powders and their associated costs.
