Conclusions
-
1.
Molybdenum and vanadium improve the strength of alloy 2 (93 Ti, 5% Al and 2% Cr). The hardening of these alloys depends on the content ofβ -phase and the isomorphous stabilizers dissolved in it.
-
2.
The stability of the investigated alloys is a function of the stability of the residualβ -phase.
Molybdenum and vanadium, making up a considerable part of theβ -phase, greatly stabilize it.
Niobium and tantalum are poor stabilizers.
-
3.
Molybdenum and vanadium improve the heat resistant properties of alloy 2 at 400–500°.
