Abstract—This article discusses the results of corrosion tests and microstructural studies of forgings from various titanium alloys modified with ruthenium, of systems Ti–Al–Zr + 0.15% Ru, Ti–Al–V–Mo + 0.15% Ru, and Ti–Al–V–Cr–Fe–Mo + 0.15% Ru and similar systems of basic compositions. On the basis of the performed complex of studies, the influence of the amount of the β phase on the local content of ruthenium and, as a consequence, on the effect of cathodic protection in general is analyzed.
