Foreword
This Standard replaces GB/T 3621-1994 “Titanium and titanium alloy sheet and plate”.
Compared with GB/T 3621-1994, the main changes are as follows:
- added 11 new alloy designations: TA8, TA8-1, TA9-1, TA11, TA15, TA17, TA18, TB5, TB6, TB8, TC4EL1 as well as their product size tolerance,
mechanical properties, process performance;
- changed the thickness specification of the cold-rolled product from the original 0.3mm~4.0mm to 0.3mm~6.0mm; revised the thickness
specification of the hot-rolled finished product to >4.75mm~60.0mm;
- revised the thickness specifications of pure titanium and TC4 finished products to 0.3mm~25mm and 0.8mm~25mm; revised the allowable
deviation of the length of some specification plates;
- added roughness requirements for β alloy and near β alloy plates;
- used ST, STA to replace original C, CS as delivery status symbols, to be consistent with international representation;
- divided the thickness specification in the dimensional deviation into continuous type;
- changed the mechanical properties of the sheet at room temperature
specify the residual elongation stress σr0.2 TO specify non-proportional extension strength RP0.2;
- made major adjustments to the mechanical properties and process
performance index of pure titanium plate and sheet; specified that the non- proportional extension strength adopts the ASTM B265-2006 index; the
indexes of tensile strength and elongation after fracture are higher than ASTM B265-2006;
- added mechanical properties index (Class B) of TA10 plate and sheet for composite board;
- added stress relief state (m) for supply of finished titanium and titanium alloy plate and sheet;
- added plate and sheet with sanded surface.
This Standard was proposed by China Nonferrous Metals Industry Association. Titanium and titanium alloy plate and sheet
