Abstract:Objective TC4 titanium alloys have excellent overall performance and are widely used in the manufacture of key components for aerospace and military hardware. However, the oxide film on the surface can adversely affect its formation and performance, which results in porosity in the weld, reduced mechanical properties, reduced electrical conductivity, and weakened bonding of the plating or coating with the substrate. Therefore, the oxide film must be removed from the titanium alloy. Traditional methods for clea… Show more
