Abstract

The microstructure and mechanical properties of the alloy Ti–Al–Sn–Zr–Mo–Nb–Ta–Si–C–Er forged at different temperature were discussed. The microscopic observation showed that both forged alloys consisted of basket weave structure, the alloy forged at 1000 °C had some lamellar α phase turning to equiaxed α phase, and its α lamellae was finer than that forged at 1050 °C, which coincided with the theoretical expectation. The mechanical properties at room temperature and 650 °C were measured, and the results showed that the forged alloy at 1000 °C possessed better mechanical properties. Compared with the alloy at 1050 °C, the alloy forged at 1000 °C has a high strength and slightly better elongation. The result showed that with the decrease of forging temperature, the strength and ductility increase, the size of α lamella reduces, and the number of equiaxed α phase increases. The excellent comprehensive mechanical properties of the alloy are obtained by forging at 1000 °C.
