Abstract
The influences of the third element addition on the compression properties of Ti-12Mo-based and Ti-33Nb-based alloys was investigated, with emphasis on the influences of element addition on Young’s modulus, superelastic strain and yield strength of water-cooling samples. It is found that the water-cooling Ti-12Mo alloy has a lower modulus, lower yield strength, and higher hyperelastic strain than that of the furnace-cooled alloy of the same composition. Al and Sn can reduce the modulus and the yield strength, and increase the superelastic strain in the above two water-cooling alloys. The decrease in yield strength and modulus is due to orthogonal martensite ɑ’. The enhancement of the superelastic strain originated from the phase transformation of the ɑ”↔βM under stress. The effect of Sn in water-cooling quaternaryTi-18Nb-5Mo-5Sn alloy is different from the above two ternary alloys, and it increases β Phase stability and volume in water-cooling Ti-18Nb-5Mo-5Sn alloy.
