“…However, titanium alloys are much more expensive compared with steels and other metallic materials, which limits their applications. The development, production, and characterization of low-cost titanium alloys are current research hotspots [ 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 ]. For these reasons, cheap alloying elements, such as Al, Fe, and Cr, instead of expensive ones, such as V, Mo, and Nb, are used to design titanium alloys and achieve a cut in cost [ 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 ].…”
