Abstract

Transmission electron microscopy has been employed to study the microstructural processes that occur prior to the detection of the isothermal omega phase in beta stabilized TiCr binary alloys. The alloy compositions were selected to provide a suitable incubation period prior to the initiation of the omega phase during isothermal aging. It has been observed that the metastable beta phase undergoes a phase separation reaction, ß → ß 1 + ß 2 prior to the detection of the omega phase in the TiCr alloys. The ß 2 precipitate regions produced by this reaction do not act as preferred sites for the subsequent nucleation of the omega phase.
