Yield of Annealing on the Properties of the Ti-5Al-2.5Fe Alloy Produced by Powder Forging

The high cost of titanium alloys can be reduced using alternative manufacturing techniques and cheap alloying elements. In this study, the Ti-5Al-2.5Fe alloy, a cheaper α + β alloy than workhorse Ti-6Al-4V, was produced by powder metallurgy combined with hot thermomechanical deformation means forging. forged subsequently subjected to heat treatment at 750 °C for several annealing times in order modify microstructure tailor mechanical properties. This study demonstrates that, regardless forging temperature used, improves both strength ductility. Generally, longer time, higher gain ductility respect alloy. Moreover, is significantly more beneficial improve rather powder-forged
