Texture of Cold-Rolled β-Titanium Alloys With Additions of Hydrogen

This paper presents a study of texture investigations in a cold-rolled VT-35 titanium alloywith hydrogen concentration varied within 0.04–0.55 wt. %. It is shown that the characterof the rolling texture depends on hydrogen contents and is caused by changes in themechanism of plastic deformation of the alloy. The poorly deformable alloy may beplastified by introducing small additions of hydrogen (0.06–0.12wt.%.). The textureformed in this case has a relatively strong {112}–{100} 〈 111 〉component and a lowintense111 component.
