18、Special requirements.6. Materials and Manufacture6.1 FinishThe mill product may be furnished to theimplant manufacturer as descaled or pickled, abrasive-blasted,chemically milled, ground, machined, peeled, polished, or asspecified by the purchaser. On billets, bars, plates, and forg-ings, it is perm
19、issible to remove minor surface imperfectionsby grinding if the resultant area meets the dimensional andsurface finish requirements of this section.6.2 ConditionMaterial shall be furnished in the betaannealed condition.7. Chemical Requirements7.1 The heat analysis shall conform to the chemical com-p
20、osition of Table 1. Ingot analysis may be used for reporting allchemical requirements, except hydrogen. Samples for hydro-gen shall be taken from the finished mill product, and thesupplier shall not ship material with chemistry outside therequirements specified in Table 1.7.1.1 Requirements for the
21、major and minor elementalconstituents are listed in Table 1. Also listed are importantresidual elements.Analysis for elements not listed in Table 1 isnot required to verify compliance with this specification.7.2 Product Analysis:7.2.1 Product analysis tolerances do not broaden the speci-fied heat an
22、alysis requirements but cover variations betweenlaboratories in the measurement of chemical content. Themanufacturer shall not ship material that is outside the limitsspecified in Table 1. The product analysis tolerances shallconform to the product tolerances in Table 2.7.2.2 The product analysis is
23、 either for the purpose ofverifying the composition of a heat or manufacturing lot or todetermine variations in the composition within the heat.7.2.3 Acceptance or rejection of a heat or manufacturing lotof material may be made by the purchaser on the basis of thisproduct analysis. Product analyses
24、outside the tolerance limitsallowed in Table 2 are cause for rejection of the product. Areferee analysis may be used if agreed upon by the supplier andpurchaser.7.2.4 For referee purposes, use Test Methods, E 1409,E 1447, and E 2371 or other analytical methods agreed uponbetween the purchaser and th
25、e supplier.7.3 Samples for chemical analysis are representative of thematerial being tested. The utmost care must be used insampling titanium for chemical analysis because of its affinityfor elements such as oxygen, nitrogen, and hydrogen. Incutting samples for analysis, therefore, the operation sho
26、uld becarried out insofar as possible in a dust-free atmosphere.Cutting tools should be clean and sharp. Samples for analysisshould be stored in suitable containers.8. Mechanical Requirements8.1 The material supplied under this specification shallconform to the mechanical property requirements in Ta
27、ble 3 orTable 4.8.2 Specimens for tension tests shall be machined and testedin accordance with Test Methods E8. Tensile properties shallbe determined using a strain rate of 0.003 to 0.007 in./in./min(mm/mm/min) through the specified yield and then the cross-head speed shall be increased so as to pro
28、duce fracture inapproximately one additional minute.8.3 For sheet and strip, the bend test specimen shall with-stand being bent cold through an angle of 105 without fracturein the outside surface of the bend portion. The bend shall bemade over a mandrel with a diameter equal to that shown inTable 4.
29、 Test conditions shall conform to Test Method E 290.8.4 Number of Tests:8.4.1 Bar, Forging Bar, Shapes, and WirePerform at leastone tension test from each lot in the longitudinal direction.Should this test result not meet the specified requirements, testtwo additional test pieces representative of t
30、he same lot, in thesame manner, for each failed test piece. The lot shall beconsidered in compliance only if all additional test pieces meetthe specified requirements.8.4.2 Tensile test results for which any specimen fracturesoutside the gauge length shall be considered acceptable, if bothTABLE 1 Ch

If either the elongation or reduction of areais less than the minimum requirement, discard the test andretest. Retest one specimen for each specimen that did not meetthe minimum req
34、uirements.8.4.3 Sheet, Strip, and PlatePerform at least one tensiontest from each lot in the longitudinal direction. Perform at leastone bend test from each lot in both the longitudinal andtransverse directions. Tests in the transverse direction need bemade only on product from which a specimen not
35、less than 8.0in. (200 mm) in length for sheet, and 2.50 in. (64 mm) in lengthfor plate can be taken. Should any of these test pieces not meetthe specified requirements, test two additional test piecesrepresentative of the same lot, in the same manner, for eachfailed test pieces. The lot shall be con
36、sidered in complianceonly if all additional test pieces meet the specified require-ments.9. Special Requirements9.1 The microstructure shall consist of a fully recrystallizedbeta phase structure. Primary alpha and alpha prime (alsoknown as martensitic alpha) are not permitted in the micro-structure
37、when viewed at 1003 magnification. The grain sizein the annealed condition shall be 5 or finer, in accordance withTest Methods E112.9.2 Determine the beta transus temperature for each heat bya suitable method and report on the material certification ifrequired by the purchaser.9.3 Alpha case is not
38、permitted for products supplied with amachined, ground, or chemically milled surface finish. Forother products, there will be no continuous layer of alpha casewhen examined at 1003 magnification.10.
