Feature

Metastable beta-titanium alloy is the strongest titanium alloy after precipitation hardening. Ti–3Al–8V–6Cr–4Mo–4Zr alloy. After solution treatment, the alloy is mainly composed of a body-centered cubic β phase. It has high plasticity but average strength, with the yield strength being only 860MPa. However, after post-aging treatment, extremely high strength can be achieved, and its yield strength (>1600MPa) is almost doubled.
