In-situ study of nanoscale omega phase kinetics in beta Ti alloys as a function of quenching rate

Abstract: This work aims to understand the precipitation behaviour of nanoscale omega phase in beta phase matrix of Ti alloys as a function of quenching rate. The omega phase is regarded as the potent nucleant site for alpha phase precipitate, which is considered to strengthen Ti alloys. This study will help us optimising omega phase precipitates, which in turn will help in controlling alpha phase precipitation to achieve higher strength. This study will also enable us to quantify microstructure by deconvoluting size, volume fraction and elemental partitioning of omega phase. Additionally, outputs of this study can be used to optimise the quenching rate for obtaining next-generation high strength beta Ti alloy. Optimising quenching rate will create an impact on aerospace industry for structural applications as thickness of material is compromised with quenching rate for achieving higher strength
