Effect of transition metal alloying elements on the deformation of Ti-44Al-8Nb-0.2B-0.2Y alloys.

ABSTRACT: A series of β-γ Ti-44Al-8Nb-0.2B-0.2Y alloys have been modified with 0.5 to 2.0 at.% of the β-stabilizing elements Mn, Cr, Mo and V. Additions of Cr and Mo alone result in a decrease in the flow stress, whereas the opposite effect was observed for additions of V. For alloys with Mn additions, a minimum value of the flow stress was achieved in the alloy with 1.5% Mn. For alloys with combined additions, optimum hot deformation behavior was obtained for the alloy with 1.5% Mn and 1.0% Cr.
