Abstract
Phase transformations during hot rolling is determined for the forged and β heat treated TC21 titanium alloys. The results show that β heat treatment has a great effect on phase constitution. Three types of precipitates, namely, α2, ω and (Ti, Zr)5Si3 phase is observed in the rolled forged materials, whereas the rolled β heat treated materials exhibites the presence of lamellar α and type 2α precipitate. The influence of β heat treatment on the phase transformations has been discussed on the basis of alloying elements, and β heat treatment can eliminate or decrease elemental segregation.
