Conclusions
-
1.
The use of carbon isotope14C in a study of 8-ton commerical ingot of titanium pseudo-α-alloy 1000 mm in diameter allowed us to establish that carbon macrosegregation does not develop in the volume of the metal.
-
2.
The uniform distribution of carbon in the solid solution after quenching and its susceptibility toward directed redistribution in slow cooling show that it is possible to change the properties of titanium pseudo-α-alloys alloyed with carbon by changing the heat-treatment regime.
-
3.
The decisive role in the carbon distribution in technological heatings and thermomechanical treatment of specimens of titanium pseudo-α-alloy quenched in water from 1200°C is played by the cooling rate rather than the heating temperature.
