“…3,4,9,10 The present authors recently researched the burn resistant mechanism 8,11 and the deformation mechanism 12 of the Ti40 alloy, however, the effects of changes in alloying elements on its properties and structures were not reported. Zhang et al 13 studied the in¯uence of changes in alloying elements on the oxidation behaviour of alloy C and they thought the Ti ± 25V ± 15Cr alloy had the best oxidation resistance among the Ti ± V ± Cr burn resistant alloys. Li et al 14 ± 16 studied the effects of Al, C, and O on microstructures and mechanical properties of a Ti ± 25V ± 15Cr ± xAl ± xC alloy, and they thought the changes in Al, C, and O greatly in¯uenced the microstructures and mechanical properties.…”
