Microstructural investigation of a deformed Ti66.1Cu8Ni4.8Sn7.2Nb13.9 nanostructure–dendrite composite

High strength Ti–Fe–(In, Nb) composites with improved plasticity

“…In recent years, one of the key topics in the development of new metallic alloys is to develop the nano-/ultrafine-grained metallic materials with simultaneously improved strength and room temperature plasticity [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18]. Among these metallic materials developed so far, Ti-based alloys are known as one of the potential lightweight engineering materials for industrial applications due to their excellent mechanical properties (yield strength w 1000 MPa and ductility w 10%) and good corrosion resistance [19].…”

Sn effect on microstructure and mechanical properties of ultrafine eutectic Ti–Fe–Sn alloys

“…Furthermore, the plasticity of the nanostructure-dendrite composites consisting of micron-scale soft dendrites and nano-scale eutectic matrix can be improved by increasing the volume fraction of the micron-scale dendrites with deteriorating the strength [11,12]. Hence, it is feasible to consider that the micron-scale dendrites and nanostructured matrix play an important role to enhance the plasticity and strength, respectively.…”

High strength hypereutectic Ti–Fe–Ga composites with improved plasticity

“…Therefore, efforts are being made towards development of advanced structural materials with improved room temperature deformability and strength. For this purpose, several different routes have been reported to develop nano-/ultrafine grained metallic materials [1,2,[4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18], metallic glass matrix composites [19][20][21] and ductile metallic glasses [22]. With the promise of superior mechanical properties, it is likely that a new opportunity will be opened up for structural application of the new advance materials.…”
