Abstract
In this study, A series of the high strength (T82Sn18)100-xNbx (x=0, 1, 3, 5, and 9 at%) ultrafine eutectic alloys with large plasticity are developed by suction casting method. The Ti82Sn18 binary eutectic alloy consists of a mixture of a hcp Ti3Sn and a α-Ti phases having the plate-like lamellar type duplex structure with micro scaled eutectic colony. From the (T82Sn18)97Nb3, the alloy display structural heterogeneous distribution of ultrafine-scaled phases composed of β-Ti(Nb) solid solution surrounded by alternating plate-like shaped Ti3Sn and α-Ti phases. With increasing Nb content, the volume fraction of β-Ti is continuously increased, which induced improving mechanical properties both strength and plasticity. Especially, (Ti82Sn18)91Nb9 alloy has the outstanding combination of the high strength (σ y ≈1.1 GPa) and large plasticity (e p ≈36%) at room temperature.
