Abstract

The mechanism by which α″-martensite decomposes in Ti-4Al-4Fe-0.25Si-0.1O alloy is found to change depending on the aging temperature, with Fe-rich α first transforming in twins of α″-martensite. As the aging temperature increases, Fe is segregated at the boundaries between α″ and α. At temperatures > 773 K, the Fe-segregated boundaries provide a nucleation site for B2-structured TiFe intermetallic compounds. This process of α″-martensite decomposition is described as follows: α″ + αTwin → αFe-rich + αFe-rich,V1 → αFe-lean,V2 + αFe-lean,V1 + TiFe.
