Bulletin of the Russian Academy of Sciences: Physics Aims and scope

Abstract

Ti–Nb alloy with 40 wt % of Nb is obtained from a composite Ti–Nb powder by means of selective laser melting. The Ti–Nb alloy has a two-phase microstructure. The main β-phase of the solid titanium–niobium solution forms grains ranging in size from ~2 to 20 μm. A nonequilibrium α″-phase is found in the forms of lamellar, globular, and packet martensite inside the grains of the β-phase and along their boundaries.
