Phase transformation kinetics in metastable beta-Ti alloys studied by in situ neutron diffraction
Metastable beta-Ti alloys contain a sufficient amount of so called beta-stabilizing elements to retain the high-temperature beta phase upon quenching. Due to the metastable nature of the retained beta phase, a number of phase transformations can occur as the alloy reaches its thermodynamic equilibrium. The physical mechanisms of these transformations are quite complex, and some of their aspects have not yet been satisfactorily explained. The proposed project aims to study the kinetics of phase transformations occurring in three selected metastable beta titanium alloys during linear heating. In particular, the formation of metastable particles of omega and alpha"; phases and their subsequent transformation to thermodynamically stable alpha phase will be investigated. For this in situ experiment, the high-flux neutron diffraction instrument D20 at ILL is an ideal tool.
