Description
Alloy VT9 used: for the manufacture of semi-finished products (sheets, strips, foils, strips, plates, bars, rods, profiles, pipe shells and pipe, forgings and forged blanks) by the strain, and bars; parts, operating at temperatures up to +500 °C; parts of gas turbine engines (discs, blades) and other parts of the compressor.
Note
Titanium alloy with high corrosion resistance. VT9 alloy provides higher strength and heat resistant properties in comparison with rafting VT6 due to the high content of aluminum and silicon alloying.
Double annealing provides an optimal combination of mechanical properties; the content of β-phase after annealing of about 10%. The alloy is thermally hardened by quenching and aging.
A satisfactory alloy is deformed in the hot state. Technological properties during pressure treatment worse than that of alloy VT6.
Welding is not recommended. Mainly used in turbine engine parts (discs, blades) and other parts of the compressor.

According to GOST 19807-91 and OST 1 90013-81 the total content of other impurities is ≤ 0.30%. The mass fraction of hydrogen is indicated for ingots. In the alloy, a partial replacement of molybdenum by tungsten in an amount not exceeding 0.3% is allowed. The total mass fraction of molybdenum and tungsten should not exceed the norms specified in the table for molybdenum. The mass fraction of chromium and manganese should not exceed 0.15% (in total). The mass fraction of copper and nickel should not be more than 0.10% (in total), including nickel not more than 0.08%.
