Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The ultimate strength and yield strength of titanium alloys increase monotonically with the zirconium content of the alloy. The strength of notched samples is higher than that of smooth samples at all testing temperatures and zirconium concentrations tested.

  2. 2.

    Alloying of titanium with zirconium makes it possible to obtain fairly high strength of alloys without substantially increasing the sensitivity to stress concentrations.

  3. 3.

    Titanium alloys with zirconium are not sensitive to stress concentrations with up to 15% Zr, have satisfactory plasticity, and can be recommended for applications at cryogenic temperatures.
