Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1772528A1] Titanium alloys with a sufficient cold workability and excellent superplasticity characteristics as shown in the (1) and (2) below, and a method for manufacturing a titanium alloy material as shown in the (3) below are provided. (1) A titanium alloy consisting of, by mass %, Al of 2.0 to 4.0%, V of 4.0 to 9.0%, Zr of 0 to 2.0%, Sn of 0 to 3.0% and the balance being Ti and impurities. (2) A titanium alloy consisting of, by mass %, Al of 2.0 to 4.0%, V of 4.0 to 9.0%, Zr of 0 to 2.0%, Sn of 0 to 3.0%, further one or more elements selected from Fe of 0.20 to 1.0%, Cr of 0.01 to 1.0%, Cu of 0.01 to 1.0% and Ni of 0.01 to 1.0%, and the balance being Ti and impurities, wherein Veq obtained by the following equation (1) is in a range of 4.0 to 9.5: Veq = V + 1.9 ¢ Cr + 3.75 ¢ Fe where a symbol on a right side of the equation (1) means a content of each element. (3) A method for manufacturing titanium alloy materials, wherein the titanium alloy described in (1) or (2) is subjected to a cold working at a cross-section reduction rate of 40% or more.
