Conclusions
-
1.
Prolonged heating (30, 000 h) of α titanium alloys in air at 200–400° leads to negligible contamination of the surface layer with oxygen.
-
2.
The oxide film formed on titanium under operating conditions probably has an unfavorable effect on the working capacity of titanium, which should be taken into account in designing structures intended for prolonged operation at elevated temperatures in air.
