Abstract:

The phase transformations in Ti alloys are reviewed. This review augments earlier reviews and emphasizes several transformations which have recently received attention. These include athermal omega-phase formation, martensitic transformations, nucleation and growth decomposition of the beta-phase, the ordering reaction in hcp and bcc Ti alloys and the effects of processing history on microstructure.
