Microstructure and mechanical properties of a novel PM Ti–2Al–1.3V alloy in different heat treatment conditions

Near-α Ti alloys find themselves in advanced aeroengines for applications of up to 600 °C, mainly as compressor components owing to their superior combination of ambient- and elevated-temperature mechanical properties and oxidation resistance. We evaluated, ranked, and selected near-α Ti alloys in the current literature for high-temperature applications in aeroengines driven by decision science by integrating multiple attribute decision making (MADM) and principal component analysis (PCA). A combination of 12 MADM methods ranked a list of 105 alloy variants based on the thermomechanical processing (TMP) conditions of 19 distinct near-α Ti alloys. PCA consolidated the ranks from various MADMs and identified top-ranked alloys for the intended applications as: Ti-6.7Al-1.9Sn-3.9Zr-4.6Mo-0.96W-0.23Si, Ti-4.8Al-2.2Sn-4.1Zr-2Mo-1.1Ge, Ti-6.6Al-1.75Sn-4.12Zr-1.91Mo-0.32W-0.1Si, Ti-4.9Al-2.3Sn-4.1Zr-2Mo-0.1Si-0.8Ge, Ti-4.8Al-2.3Sn-4.2Zr-2Mo, Ti-6.5Al-3Sn-4Hf-0.2Nb-0.4Mo-0.4Si-0.1B, Ti-5.8Al-4Sn-3.5Zr-0.7Mo-0.35Si-0.7Nb-0.06C, and Ti-6Al-3.5Sn-4.5Zr-2.0Ta-0.7Nb-0.5Mo-0.4Si. The alloys have the following metallurgical characteristics: bimodal matrix, aluminum equivalent preferably ~8, and nanocrystalline precipitates of Ti3Al, germanides, or silicides. The analyses, driven by decision science, make metallurgical sense and provide guidelines for developing next-generation commercial near-α Ti alloys. The investigation not only suggests potential replacement or substitute for existing alloys but also provides directions for improvement and development of titanium alloys over the current ones to push out some of the heavier alloys and thus help reduce the engine’s weight to gain advantage.
