Abstract
The structure of hypoeutectic, hypereutectic, and eutectic Ti–Fe alloys produced in the shape of arc-melted ingots was found to consist of the ordered Pm-3m TiFe and disordered BCC Im3m β–Ti solid solution phase. The dimensions of the ingots were about 25–40 mm in diameter and 10–15 mm in height, and their structure was studied by x-ray diffractometry and scanning electron microscopy. The rectangular parallelepiped-shaped samples 2.5 × 2.5 × 5 mm in size cut from the central part of the ingots exhibit a high strength of about 2000 MPa, except for Ti60Fe40, and a certain ductility. The relatively low density of Ti (4.5 Mg/m3) implies high strength/density ratio for the studied alloys. These alloys are characterized by the low cost of the alloying element Fe and, compared to most of the high-strength non-equilibrium materials, do not require additional injection mold casting or rapid solidification procedures.
