The mechanical properties of three titanium alloys (Ti-7Mo-3Al, Ti-7Mo- 3Cu and Ti-7Mo-3Ta) were evaluated as function of: 1) Solutionizing in the beta field and aging, 2) Thermal Mechanical Processing in the beta field and aging, 3) Solutionizing in the alpha + beta field and aging. The samples were isothermally aged in the temperature range 300° to 700*C for 4 to 24 hours, followed by a water quench. Transmission electron microscopy and X-ray method were used to identify the phase formed. All three alloys solutionized at 1050°C (beta field) transformed to martensitic alpha (alpha prime) upon being water quenched. Despite this heavily strained alpha prime, which is characterized by microtwins the tensile strength of the as-quenched alloys is relatively low and the elongation is as high as 30%.

Preliminary evidence of density and mechanical properties enhancement of binary alloys by solidification subject to vibrations is presented. The frequency of vibrations was increased from 0 to 100 Hz by using sound waves as the vibration source. The latter shows that the solidified microstructure, the ultimate tensile strength, and the hardness improve as the frequency increases. The chosen alloy for this study was Pb-Sb 4.4% (lead antimony 4.4%) and was selected because of its low melting temperature. The cast chosen was of a rod shape having a diameter of 10mm and a length 500mm. This choice is consistent with assuming an infinite length and therefore ignoring boundary effects in a planned theoretical follow-up analysis. Also due to the geometry of the mould it can be assumed that the cast was cooled due to conduction alone.

Ti-6Al-4V pancakes were manufactured by alpha-beta forging using single-melt (SM) plasma arc melt (PAM) billet stock at three oxygen levels, 0.16, 0.20 and 0.24 wt%, along with a standard double vacuum arc remelted (2XVAR) billet stock at 0.17 wt% oxygen for baseline comparison. Mechanical properties of forgings in the mill-, recrystallization- and beta-annealed conditions were then characterized by microstructure examination, tensile, smooth bar axial fatigue and fracture toughness testing in radial orientation. The effect of oxygen content on mechanical properties of the forgings was assessed. All SM PAM forgings exhibited slightly higher tensile and fatigue strength compared to those of 2XVAR. The fracture toughness values decreased with increasing oxygen content. Microstructures of all forgings were similar to those of conventional alpha-beta forgings. The data presented in this paper can be useful to designers in their efforts to introduce low-cost SM PAM Ti-6Al-4V (Ti-6-4) alloy forgings into various U.S. defense applications.
