Abstract

Editorial: Structure and Mechanical Properties of Titanium Alloys and Titanium Matrix Composites (TMCs)

Highlights

  • Titanium alloys and titanium matrix composites (TMCs) have wide application prospects in aerospace, automobile, biomedicine, and other industries because of their combination of excellent properties such as high specific strength, good ductility, excellent fatigue properties, and corrosion resistance

  • In the contents of this topic, many endeavors are made regarding the modification of microstructure and mechanical properties of titanium alloys and TMCs via various methods

  • In the aspect of TMCs, Wen et al investigated the microhardness of micron-level TiC and TiB reinforcements in in-situ synthesized (TiC+TiB)/Ti-6Al-4V via nanoindentation, and they verified that the nanoindentation method was a very useful method to characterize the microhardness of reinforcements in TMCs

Summary

Frontiers in Materials

With industrial and biomedical development, the improvement in mechanical properties of titanium alloys and TMCs is required. The novel design, manufacturing, mechanical modification, and other aspects of materials science, are of vital importance to titanium alloys and TMCs. In the contents of this topic, many endeavors are made regarding the modification of microstructure and mechanical properties of titanium alloys and TMCs via various methods. In terms of titanium alloys after laser treatment and selective laser melting (SLM), Zhang et al investigated the microstructure and mechanical properties of Ti-35Nb-2Ta-3Zr by laser quenching. In the aspect of titanium alloys after heat treatment, Gai et al investigated the hot deformation behavior of a novel near-β titanium alloy Ti-5.5Mo-6V-7Cr-4Al-2Sn-1Fe in the (α+β) phase region.
