  • shape the mechanical and physicochemical properties of a material; they include [1-3]:
  • Ti alloys include pseudo-alpha alloys, which are basically two-phase alloys, but the share of the alpha phase is predominant - the remaining elements of the structure usually account for several percent by volume [1-3].
  • Pseudo-alpha alloys have been designed to work at high temperatures, and they are characterised by a complex chemical composition, e.g.
  • Ti-6-2-4-2-S alloy with the following composition: Ti-6Al-2Sn-4Zr-2Mo-0.1Si, TIMETAL 1100: Ti-6Al-2.7Sn-4Zr-0.4Mo-0.4Si, TIMTETAL 685: Ti-6Al-5Zr-0.5Mo-0.25Si, TIMETAL 834 Ti-5.8Al-4Sn-3.5Zr-0.5Mo-0.7Nb-0.35Si-0.06C [2,5]. Alloying elements with the highest share are Al, Sn, and Zr, serving the function of stabilisers of the alpha phase, while the remaining elements are responsible for the precipitation of additional phases - the beta phase and intermetallic precipitates.
  • pseudo-alpha alloys are their very complex chemical composition, hindering their further improvement, and low ductility, usually not exceeding 12% of the breaking strain, due to which these alloys cannot be freely shaped at low temperatures.

  • the silicon content is 0.45 wt%.
  • the rhenium content is between 0.5 and 1 wt%, preferably 1 wt%.
  • the method for producing a ternary titanium alloy according to the invention comprises the following steps:
  • the recasting temperature is higher than the melting point of Re and lower than the boiling point of Ti.
  • Recasting of the mixture in step (ii) can be performed using the arc melting method.
  • recasting of the mixture in step (ii) is performed five times.
  • homogenisation annealing in step (iv) is performed at a temperature of at least 882°C, preferably at least 900°C.
  • homogenisation annealing in step (iv) is performed for a time of at least 30 minutes.
  • cooling in step (v) is performed in water, preferably at room temperature.
  • step (vi) forming processes can be performed by cold rolling of the cooled alloy.
  • cold rolling in step (vi) is performed until reaching a reduction of at least 50% of the thickness of the material, preferably 50-80% of the thickness of the material.
  • recrystallisation annealing in step (vii) is performed at a temperature between 810 and 830°C, preferably 820°C, and cooling is performed in accordance with step (viii) with a furnace, preferably at a rate of at least 1°C/min, or in the air, preferably at room temperature.
  • recrystallisation annealing in step (vii) is performed at a temperature higher than 882°C, preferably approximately 950°C, and cooling is performed in accordance with step (viii) in water.
  • recrystallisation annealing in step (vii) is performed for a time of at least 10 minutes, preferably for a time of 10 minutes.
  • step (vi) forming processes can be performed by hot forging above the ⁇ -> ⁇ transition temperature.

  • the ⁇ transition temperature of the alloy is 882°C
  • the melting point of rhenium is 3185°C
  • the boiling point of titanium is approximately 3287°C.
  • Fig. 1 presents the microstructure of a Ti-Si-1Re alloy in a state of equilibrium, i.e. after slow cooling from 820°C (treatment A) with visible intercrystalline precipitates - type I, and located inside the grains - type II (transmission electron microscopy);
  • Fig. 2 presents the microstructure of a Ti-Si-Re alloy after fast cooling from 950°C (treatment B) with indicated martensite plates and precipitates of Ti-Si phases (transmission electron microscopy and electron diffraction);
  • Fig. 1 presents the microstructure of a Ti-Si-1Re alloy in a state of equilibrium, i.e. after slow cooling from 820°C (treatment A) with visible intercrystalline precipitates - type I, and located inside the grains - type II (transmission electron microscopy);
  • Fig. 2 presents the microstructure of a Ti-Si-Re alloy after fast cooling from 950°C (treatment B) with indicated martensite plates and precipitates of Ti-Si phases (transmission electron
  • Fig. 3 presents the mechanical properties of pure titanium, Ti-Re and Ti-Si alloys (the commercial Timetal XT alloy indicated as TiXT), and Ti-Si-Re alloys, materials in a normalised condition after type A heat treatment, i.e. slow cooling from 820°C (the static tension test)
  • Fig. 4 presents the structure (a) and mechanical properties (b) of pure titanium, Ti-Re and Ti-Si alloys (the commercial Timetal XT alloy indicated as TiXT), and Ti-Si-Re alloys - materials in a metastable condition after supersaturation from a temperature of 950°C, i.e. after treatment B (EBSD images of the microstructures of selected systems, and the static tension test).
  • Ternary Ti-Si-Re alloys were prepared using the commercial Timetal XT alloy, containing 0.45 wt% of silicon. This material was recast with a rhenium additive, using the following procedure:
  • Homogenisation annealing was performed at a temperature above the ⁇ -> ⁇ transition temperature of the alloy, i.e. above 882°C. In an embodiment, annealing was performed at a temperature of 900°C and over a time of 30 minutes. This step was supposed to homogenise the microstructure (elimination of unpreferable morphology comprising zones of frozen grains, columnar grains, and dendrites of variable size) and chemical composition.
  • Treatment A Recrystallisation annealing at a temperature of 820°C, minimum time of 10 minutes, cooling in the air or with a furnace. This step of the treatment was performed at a temperature close to the end of stability of the ⁇ -Ti phase, resulting in full recrystallisation of the material and obtaining a homogeneous, equiaxial microstructure (the reference condition for commercial materials).
  • Treatment B Recrystallisation annealing at a temperature of 950°C, minimum time of 10 minutes, cooling in water. This version of treatment was performed at the temperature of stability of the ⁇ phase. Fast cooling in water resulted in a metastable ⁇ -Ti structure, supersaturated with rhenium, with a minimal amount of precipitates.
  • binary Ti-Re alloys were also prepared.
  • the input materials Ti with purity of 99.98 wt% and Re with purity of 99.9 wt% (according to the received technical specification) were cut and cleaned chemically and ultrasonically.
  • Four compositions/mixtures of substrates were prepared, with the following Re concentrations: 0 (pure Ti), 0.2 wt%, 0.5 wt%, and 1 wt%, which constituted an input for the production of solid materials.
  • the binary alloys were prepared using the same method as for the ternary alloys, but using only treatment A in step (vii).
  • Heat treatment A resulted in achieving a homogeneous, equiaxial structure of the material, consisting of a hexagonal phase saturated with rhenium and silicon, and two types of precipitates of a submicrometric size, present inside the grains and on their boundaries, as presented in Figure 1 .
  • Heat treatment B resulted in shaping a dispersed martensitic structure (a supersaturated hexagonal solution of Ti), with thickness of martensite plates in the order of 200 nm, with larger alpha grains and TiSi precipitates - Figs. 2 and 4 .
  • the different morphology of the Ti-Si-Re alloy achieved by means of two heat treatments resulted in significantly different properties of the material, which are presented in Figures 3 and 4 .
  • Type A treatment allowed for achieving high strength and very high plasticity - the yield point higher by approximately 100 MPa, and the breaking strain higher by 11% compared to the commercial Timetal XT alloy with a composition of Ti-0.5Si (0.5 wt% ofSi).
  • the increase in the yield point and the breaking strain was 20% and 40%, respectively.
  • the yield point increased by 225%, and the Ti-Si-Re alloy retained over 80% of plasticity of pure Ti, which was unheard- of in the previous solutions.
  • the use of the B-type treatment increased the strength of the Ti-Si-Re alloy to a level of 950 MPa - the tensile strength, decreasing the plasticity of the alloy to a level of 17% of the breaking strain.
  • increases in strength of 40% and 147% were achieved for the Timetal XT alloy (Ti-05Si) and pure titanium, respectively.
