Abstract

Ti6AI4V rings have been centrifugally spray deposited with the long term aim of producing sheet which can be superplastically formed. Spray deposition has been carried out under vacuum and under an argon atmosphere in order to assess the significance of gas entrapment during spray forming. Some samples have been HIPped and others have been used for hot rolling trials after spray deposition and the microstructures of these differently treated samples compared. Some preliminary measurements of the room temperature tensile properties have also been made.

The results are briefly discussed in terms of the advantages of using a vacuum spray forming route and in terms of the properties of the spray-formed and HIPped samples.
