Titanium has high specific strength, low elastic modulus, and good corrosion resistance. Especially, beta titanium alloys are used for jet engine, turbine blade in automobile and aerospace industries because of its good formability. Among the beta titanium alloys, LCB (Low-Cost Beta) titanium alloys were developed to make economical and mechanical advantages by not using high-cost beta stabilizer like Nb, Zr, Ta but using low-cost beta stabilizer like Mo, Fe, Cr, etc. In LCB titanium alloys, adding a small amount of boron makes grain refinement in cast ingot. This study has analyzed the changes of microstructure which can change mechanical properties after heat treatment and the plastic deformation in case of adding a small amount of boron.

Beta Titanium Alloys

The attractive combination of strength and low density has resulted in titanium alloys covering 15 to 25% of the weight of a modern jet engine, with titanium currently being used in fan, compressor and nozzle components. Typically, titanium alloys used in jet engine applications are selected from the group of near alpha and alpha-beta titanium alloys, which exhibit superior elevated temperature strength, creep resistance and fatigue life compared to typical titanium alloys such as Ti-6Al-4V. Legacy titanium alloys for elevated temperature jet engine applications include Ti-5Al-2Sn-2Zr-4Mo-4Cr, Ti-6Al-2Sn-4Zr-2Mo-0.1Si and Ti-4Al-4Mo-2Sn-0.5Si. Improving the mechanical behavior of these alloys enables improved component performance, which is crucial to advancing jet engine performance. As a world leader in supplying advanced alloys of titanium, nickel, cobalt, and specialty stainless steels, ATI is developing new titanium alloys with improved elevated temperature properties. These improved properties derive from precipitation of secondary intermetallics in alpha-beta titanium alloys. ATI has developed several new alpha-beta titanium alloy compositions which exhibit significantly improved elevated temperature strength and creep resistance. This paper will focus on the effects of chemistry and heat treat conditions on the microstructure and resulting elevated temperature properties of these new aerospace titanium alloys.

Titanium and titanium alloys possess some attractive properties, such as excellent corrosion and erosion resistance, low densities, high specific strength and modulus, enabling them extensively used in aeronautical, marine, chemical and biomedical applications and so on. Nevertheless, Recent years, the corrosion resistance of titanium and titanium alloys is required to elevate in some fields, proper surface modification such as surface oxidation can solve the problems effectively. In this paper, the recent investigations of thermal oxidation and micro-arc oxidation to improve the corrosion resistant of titanium and its alloys are reviewed. The structures, properties and their influence factors of the coatings are analysed systematically. And the existing problems and the future prospect of the further researches is mentioned.

Beta Titanium Alloys

Beta titanium alloys have several attractive features; this has resulted in this group of alloys receiving much attention since 1980’s. Among the attributes which distinguish them for their superiority over other structural materials are (i) high strength to which they can be heat treated, resulting in high strength to weight ratio (ii) high degree of hardenability which enables heat treatment in large section sizes to high strength levels (iii) excellent hot and cold workability, making them as competitive sheet materials etc. The standard heat treatment consists of solution treatment in beta or alpha plus beta phase field followed by aging. However, certain aging treatments can render the materials in a state of little or no ductility; the designer has to be aware of this behaviour and has to keep away from such treatments while working with the materials. Such unfavourable aging treatments may adversely affect not only the static properties such as reduction in area and elongation in a tensile test, but also dynamic properties such as impact toughness. Results of fractographic studies are in line with those of mechanical testing. The authors would present the foregoing analysis, based primarily on the wide-ranging researches they carried out on beta titanium alloy Ti15-3 and to some extent data published by researchers on other grades of beta titanium alloys. An attempt is made to explain the mechanisms underlying the embrittlement reactions that take place in beta titanium alloys under non-optimal aging treatments.
