A two phase alpha-beta titanium alloy, Ti-6Al-2Mo-2Cr-2Sn-2Zr-0.2Si (Ti-6-22-22S), has recently been reconsidered as a high temperature material for aircraft engine applications. This alloy exhibits specific strength and fracture toughness superior to those of Ti-6A1-4V. However, similar to other alpha-beta titanium alloys, microstructural stability is one of the major concerns regarding industrial application of Ti-6-22-22S, since changes of the microstructure during long term high temperature exposure significantly affect the performance of components. Two types of precipitates have been observed in Ti-6-22-22S alloys, namely silicides and alpha 2-Ti3Al. The presence of intermetallic precipitates, such as alpha 2-Ti3Al, in the parent alpha matrix has been reported to result in brittle behaviour of the alpha-beta alloys due to the formation of intense planar slip bands. The present paper presents results of the characterization of intermetallic alpha2-Ti3Al precipitates in the alpha phase by methods of scanning and transmission electron microscopy (SEM and TEM respectively).

A beta titanium alloy was evaluated for use in orthodontic appliances. Standard mechanical tests and a specially designed spring test were used. Two particular thermo-mechanical treatments resulted in titanium springs with 1.8 times the extension of comparable stainless steel springs, and a 2.2 fold reduction in force per unit displacement.

Abstract UNS No. R54620 is an alpha-beta titanium alloy. It has an excellent combination of tensile strength, creep strength, toughness and high-temperature stability that makes it suitable for service to 1050 F. It is recommended for use where high strength is required. It has outstanding advantages for long-time use at temperatures to 800 F. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, elasticity, tensile properties, and bend strength as well as creep. It also includes information on high temperature performance and corrosion resistance as well as forming, heat treating, machining, joining, and surface treatment. Filing Code: Ti-86. Producer or source: Titanium alloy mills.
