Phase Transformation and Microstructure Evolution in Near-β Ti-7333 Titanium Alloy During Aging

  A newly near-β titanium alloy Ti-7Mo-3Cr-3Nb-3Al (Ti-7333) was subjected to β phase solution treatment and ageing in the present work.The characteristics of α phase transformation in ageing treatment were studied.Results show that isothermal aging at a low temperature (350℃) will result in lots of ω particles with small size homogeneously distributing in the parent phase.These ω particles can act as nucleation sites for α phase and lead to the uniform precipitation of fine α phase within the β grain after further ageing treatment.However,when ageing at a higher temperature,the α phase tends to precipitate direct from the β matrix and the morphology of α phase is determined by the temperature and period of ageing treatment.After aging at 550℃ for 5min,acicular α phase precipitates in the β grains as well as along β grain boundaries and the size and quantity of α phase increase with the holding time.Note that Ti-7333 alloy has a quick ageing response.When aging at 700℃ for 1h,coarser α laths precipitate both on the grain boundary and within the grain.Increase the ageing temperature to 800℃,α phase precipitates within the β grain as short rod-like morphology.It is suggested that the driving force for α phase nucleation and the amount of defects in the intragranular decrease with the increasing of temperature,leading to the grain boundaries become the prior nucleation sites.Substantial α phase precipitate-free regions adjacent to β grain boundaries remained after ageing at 700℃ for 1h due to the rejection of β-stabilizer from coarse α lath on β grain boundaries.Aging at 800℃ for 1h resulted in pronounced continuous α-films along β grain boundaries.
