Abstract
In this research, the fabrication conditions of Ti-29Nb-13Ta-4.6Zr(TNTZ) alloy by pulse-current sintering and the properties of the alloy were investigated experimentally. The sintering was performed at various temperatures in a vacuum, and then the solution treatment was carried out in Ar gas atmosphere. As a result, the alloy sintered at 1273 K was showed almost full density. The microstructure of the as-sintered alloy became β-phase by solution treatment. The tensile strength and elongation of the solution-treated alloy were 539 MPa and 12.3 %, respectively. The Young's modulus was around 60 GPa and was similar to that of the wrought alloy.
