Abstract

A transformation pathway during thermal treatment of metastable β Ti-15Mo alloy was investigated by in situ neutron diffraction. The evolution of individual phases α , β , and ω was investigated during linear heating with two heating rates of 1.9 ∘ C / min and 5 ∘ C / min and during aging at 450 ∘ C . The results showed that with a sufficient heating rate (5 ∘ C / min in this case), the ω phase dissolves before the α phase forms. On the other hand, for the slower heating rate of 1.9 ∘ C / min , a small temperature interval of the coexistence of the α and ω phases was detected. Volume fractions and lattice parameters of all phases were also determined.
