The Effect of Heating Rate on Discontinuous Grain Boundary Alpha Formation in a Metastable Beta Titanium Alloy
Continuous grain boundary α ( α GB ) is often observed in age-hardened metastable β titanium alloys and plays a detrimental role in ductility. In this work, we show that the heating rate to the aging temperature is crucial in determining the extent of α GB . The extent of α GB is determined by the e...

Zusammenfassung: | Continuous grain boundary
α
(

) is often observed in age-hardened metastable
β
titanium alloys and plays a detrimental role in ductility. In this work, we show that the heating rate to the aging temperature is crucial in determining the extent of
α
GB
. The extent of
α
GB
is determined by the extent of formation of isothermal
ω
at grain boundaries. This new finding is significant for suppressing continuous

formation in aging hardened

titanium alloys. |
