Strengthening strategy for a ductile metastable β-titanium alloy using low-temperature aging
titanium alloys are typically considered embrittling and consequently deleterious to the mechanical properties
this paper demonstrates that low-temperature aging (LTA) treatments for short time periods can in fact enhance the yield strength while preserving substantial elongation-to-failure in
ω
containing
β
titanium alloys. LTA treatments
carried out on a ductile
β
metastable Ti–12Mo alloy
significantly improve the yield strength of the material (∼55% increase as compared to solution-treated samples) while keeping both TRIP/TWIP effects and a large elongation-to-failure (
ϵ
= 0.4 in true strain)
resulting in a balance of mechanical properties.
IMPACT STATEMENT
Employing a novel low-temperature annealing strategy
omega precipitates
typically considered embrittling in beta titanium alloys
can effectively increase the yield strength by 50% while preserving 40% tensile ductility.
