Abstract
The mechanical behavior of rutile has been the subject of a number of investigations in recent years. This paper will correlate strain aging data with the defect structure of rutile and diffusion in rutile. Previous strain aging data for rutile wilI be compared with recent work in strain aging of nonstoichiometric rutile, and to strain aging theory as developed for other materials. The strain aging data of Voigt was also examined, where aging time was held constant, and strain aging was studied as a function of "formula" It was found that strain aging was related to defect structure in the same manner that Voigt had already stated. But since these data were not taken over a variety of aging times, further analysis was impossible.
