Mechanisms of Ti3Al precipitation in hcp alpha-Ti

Felicity F. Dear, Paraskevas Kontis, Baptiste Gault +3

Nucleation and growth of TiAl \textalpha{} ordered domains in \textalpha{}-Ti--Al--X alloys were characterised using a combination of transmission electron microscopy, atom…

The Kinetics of Primary Alpha Plate Growth in Titanium Alloys

Abigail K Ackerman, Alexander J. Knowles, Hazel M. Gardner +8

The kinetics of primary alpha-Ti colony/Widmanstatten plate growth from the beta are examined, comparing model to experiment. The plate growth velocity depends sensitively both on…

Interface characteristics in an α+β titanium alloy

Abigail K. Ackerman, Vassili A. Vorontsov, Ioannis Bantounas +6

The alpha/beta interface in Ti-6Al-2Sn-4Zr-6Mo (Ti-6246) is investigated via centre of symmetry analysis, both as-grown and after 10% cold work. Semi-coherent interface steps are o…

Characterizing solute hydrogen and hydrides in pure and alloyed titanium at the atomic scale

Yanhong Chang, Andrew J. Breen, Zahra Tarzimoghadam +16

Ti has a high affinity for hydrogen and is a typical hydride formers. Ti-hydride are brittle phases which probably cause premature failure of Ti-alloys. Here, we used atom probe to…
