Abstract

Meta-stable β alloys in the titanium-rich corner of the Ti-Mo-V system have been studied with respect to their stability upon holding in the temperature range 300° to 550°C. Metallographic examination coupled with hardness measurements were employed to follow structural changes. Ternary alloys in the total alloy content range of 15 to 24 pet were found to transform.
