Abstract
The effect of plastic deformation mode on tensile properties of quenched commercial β-phase titanium alloys has been investigated at approximately constant grain size and oxygen content. In addition, stability of β-phase has been estimated from ω-reflections or diffuse streaking in electron diffraction patterns in a manner similar to the previous works on binary β-phase titanium alloys. Dominant mode of plastic deformation is {332}<113> twinning in the alloys with large instability of β-phase, such as Ti-11.5Mo-6Zr-4. 5Sn and Ti-15Mo-5Zr, and is crystallographic slip in the alloys with small instability of β-phase, such as Ti-15Mo-5Zr-3Al, Ti-3Al-8V-6Cr-4Mo-4Zr, Ti-15V-3Cr-3Al-3Sn, Ti-8Mo-8V-2Fe-3Al, and Ti-13V-11C-3Al. Twinning leads to low yield strength and large elongation, while slip results in high yield strength and small elongation in agreement with binary and termary β-phase titanium alloys.
