Abstract:The microstructural evolution and creep deformation behavior which were adjusted and controlled by age treatment of a novel Ti-22Al-25Nb-1Mo-1V-1Zr-0.2Si (mole fraction, %) alloy, were investigated. The microstructures were obtained at different heat treatment temperatures and analyzed by SEM and TEM techniques. The creep behavior of the alloy was studied at 650 °C, 150 MPa for 100 h in air. The results showed that the initial microstructure mainly contained lath-like α2, B2, and O phases. The precipitated O phase was sensitive to aging temperature. With the aging temperature increasing, the thickness of the precipitated O phase was also increased, and the length was shortened. The creep resistance of this alloy was relevant to the morphology and volume faction of the lamellar O phase. The increase of lamellar O phase in thickness was the main reason for the improved creep properties.
Key words: Ti2AlNb-based alloy; microstructure evolution; heat treatment; creep deformation behavior
