Three titanium alloys with 0.5, 6, and 9 wt.% iron were investigated, and the samples were pre-annealed in three different regions of the Ti-Fe phase diagram, namely β, α+β, and α+FeTi.

The pivotal role of metal implants within the host's body following reconstructive surgery hinges primarily on the initial phase of the process: the adhesion of host cells to the implant's surface and the subsequent colonization by these cells. Notably, titanium alloys represent a significant class of materials used for crafting metal implants. This study, however, marks the first investigation into how the phase composition of titanium alloys, encompassing the volume fractions of the α, β, and ω phases, influences cell adhesion to the implant's surface.

In this work the high-entropy alloy studied contained six components, Ti/Zr/Hf/Mo/Cr/Co, and three phases, namely one phase with body-centered cubic lattice (BCC) and two Laves phases C14 and C15. A series of annealings in the temperature range from 600 to 1000 °C demonstrated not only a change in the microstructure of the TiZrHfMoCrCo alloy, but also the modification of phase composition. After annealing at 1000 °C the BCC phase almost fully disappeared.

This paper discusses the features of ω-phase formation and its thermal stability depending on the phase composition, alloying element and the grain size of the initial microstructure of Ti-Nb and Ti-Mo alloys subjected to high-pressure torsion (HPT) deformation. In the case of two-phase Ti-3wt.% Nb and Ti-20wt.

It is well known that severe plastic deformation not only leads to strong grain refinement and material strengthening but also can drive phase transformations. A study of the fundamentals of α → ω phase transformations induced by high-pressure torsion (HPT) in Ti-Nb-based alloys is presented in the current work. Before HPT, a Ti-3wt.

Garnet type solid electrolytes are promising candidates for replacing the flammable liquid electrolytes conventionally used in Li-ion batteries. Al-doped LiLaZrO (LLZO) is synthesized using nebulized spray pyrolysis and field assisted sintering technology (FAST), a novel synthesis route ensuring the preparation of samples with a homogeneous elemental distribution and dense ceramic electrolytes. Ceramic preparation utilizing field assisted sintering, in particular the applied pressure, has significant influence on the material structure, microstrain, and thereby its electrochemical performance.

The structure and properties of a composite consisting of Mg-Y-Nd-Zr alloy (WE43) and various oxides are studied. The particles of the WE43 powder were coated by the nanocrystalline oxide layer by means of a wet chemical deposition process. After that the powder is compressed into solid samples and deformed using high-pressure torsion at room temperature.
