The alloys were investigated both in as-forged condition and in the rolled condition. Rolling did not necessarily make a grains finer, but changed the shape from plate-like to globular. Strengths depended mainly on the oxygen content; the lower content produced lower strengths. The alloy with lowest oxygen content showed the best ductility at 4 K. The fracture toughness at cryogenic temperature was also enhanced by the reduction of oxygen. In the lowest oxygen alloy, no drop in the fracture toughness was observed between 293 and 4 K. Fatigue properties were influenced by the forming process. The rolled materials had higher fatigue strength than the forged materials. The difference was accentuated at 4 K. This is believed to be due to the difference in the morphology of a grains. The lowest oxygen alloy showed the highest fatigue strength at 4 K.}, pages = {882--889}, title = {Cryogenic mechanical properties of Ti-6Al-4V alloys with three levels of oxygen content}, volume = {31}, year = {1991} }
