摘要
The beta to alpha phase transformation of Ti alloys progresses in alpha displacive-diffusive mixed-mode. The associated transformation strain has important influence on the resultant microstructure. In this work, the microstructural features of alpha precipitates in a metastable Ti alloy, Ti-7333, were thoroughly investigated. Special attention was paid to the intragranular a for the advantage of a stress-free transformation environment. Results show that the constituents of each alpha precipitate is not single. Two kinds of nano-sized a domains exist. One is situated on the broad face of the major alpha precipitate (named interface alpha), and the other goes through the major a (termed penetrating alpha). The interface a is related with the matrix by the Burgers orientation relationship (BOR) and with the major a by a 60 /(1120)alpha rotation. The nucleation of such a particles is induced by the largest shear strain generated by the formation of the major alpha. They act as stress-associated sympathetic nuclei of the neighboring a precipitates and eventually contribute to the formation of the triangular alpha cluster. The penetrating a does not obey the BOR with the beta matrix but is related with the major a by a 60 degrees rotation around another (11 (2) over bar0), axis. The nucleation of such a is induced by the largest normal strain generated by the formation of the main a plate. This work provides comprehensive information on the displacive characters of the beta to alpha transformation and their impact on the microstructure of metastable beta Ti alloys.
