Abstract

Evolution of phase during heating of metastable titanium alloy Ti-15Mo was investigated in situ during heating by electrical resistance measurements and accompanied by transmission electron microscopy. Different heating rates were employed aiming to determine kinetics of occurring phase transformations.

Sharp change of temperature dependence of electrical resistance caused by complete dissolution of phase was observed at 560 independently of heating rate. Majority of particles revert back to phase at 560 ; therefore, they are not direct precursors of precipitation during continuous heating.
