Static grain growth in a microduplex Ti–6Al–4V alloy

The grain growth behavior of the microduplex titanium, 6% aluminum, 4% vanadium alloy is addressed. Although there has been considerable work done on second phase particle coarsening, there is limited research on coarsening in a two-phase material with nearly equal phase ratios. In this study, coarsening parameters were determined for the temperature range of 850–925°C, where α and β phase ratios are approximately 50 percent. Experimentally …
