Abstract

The morphology and substructure of the athermal martensite produced byβ-quenching Ti, Ti-5% V and Ti-10% V have been described in detail. The martensitic transformation in the Ti-10% V alloy was found to be incomplete leading to a structure comprised of theμ-,β- andω-phases. The extent ofβ retention increases with the V content of the alloy and the martensitic transformation was completely inhibited on quenching a Ti-20% V alloy to room temperature. This alloy was found to undergo a stress-induced martensitic transformation. The morphology and crystallography of the stress-induced products have been examined in detail.
