Abstract

Conditions of formation and structural characteristics of metastable states forming due to changes in the concentration of alloying elements in titanium alloys with 3d-metals are considered. The states arising due to hardening from the range of solid solution and the states arising due to hardening from melt are studied. Growth in the concentration of alloying elements in all alloys of the type is accompanied by formation of a metastable ω-phase and an incommensurate ω-phase; in alloys of the Ti-Fe and Ti-Mn systems the formed phases also include icosahedral quasi-crystals and their approximants. Effects of various factors on the formation of metastable phases are discussed. An incommensurate ω-phase is considered as an example of specific nanocrystalline structure stabilized by electron interactions.
