Abstract

In order to further investigate the effects of the subsequent heat treatment on the microstructure and mechanical properties of TiBw/Ti6Al4V composites with a novel network microstructure, heat treatment was performed on the typical 5vol.%TiBw/Ti6Al4V (200 μm) composite with a network microstructure.
