Determination of α lamellae orientation in a β-Ti alloy using electron backscatter diffraction.

The spatial orientation of α lamellae in a metastable β-Ti matrix of Timetal LCB (Ti-6.8 Mo-4.5 Fe-1.

Novel α + β Zr Alloys with Enhanced Strength.

Low-alloyed zirconium alloys are widely used in nuclear applications due to their low neutron absorption cross-section. These alloys, however, suffer from limited strength. Well-established guidelines for the development of Ti alloys were applied to design new two-phase ternary Zr alloys with improved mechanical properties.

The Effect of Hot Working on the Mechanical Properties of High Strength Biomedical Ti-Nb-Ta-Zr-O Alloy.

Beta titanium alloy Ti-35Nb-6Ta-7Zr-0.7O (wt%) was developed as a material intended for the manufacturing of a stem of a hip joint replacement. This alloy contains only biocompatible elements and possesses a very high yield strength already in the cast condition (900 MPa).

Transformation Pathway upon Heating of Metastable Titanium Alloy Ti-15Mo Investigated by Neutron Diffraction.

A transformation pathway during thermal treatment of metastable β Ti-15Mo alloy was investigated by in situ neutron diffraction. The evolution of individual phases α , β , and ω was investigated during linear heating with two heating rates of 1.9 ∘ C / min and 5 ∘ C / min and during aging at 450 ∘ C .

Anomalous X-ray diffraction from ω nanoparticles in β-Ti(Mo) single crystals.

Anomalous X-ray diffraction (AXRD) is a technique which makes use of effects occurring near the energy of an absorption edge of an element present in the studied sample. The intensity of the diffracted radiation exhibits an anomalous decrease when the primary beam energy matches the energy needed to excite an electron from an atomic orbital. The characteristics of this step are sensitive to the concentration of the `anomalous' element and its spatial distribution in the sample.
