Ti alloys are widely used in aero-engines due to their excellent comprehensive
performance. However, Ti alloys show ignition sensitivity, which is attributed to their poor …

Abstract A TWIP-TRIP high-entropy alloy with inhomogeneous chemical composition was
prepared by laser powder deposition (LPD). The microstructure and properties of the alloy …

Abstract Metastability-engineering, eg, transformation-induced plasticity (TRIP), can
enhance the ductility of alloys, however it often comes at the expense of relatively low yield …

Metastable β titanium alloys usually suffer from relatively low yield strengths, which restricts
their applications as a structural material. Additive manufacturing (AM), due to its extremely …

In this paper, a novel Cu-1.5 Ni-1.1 Co-0.6 Si-0.1 Cr (wt.%) alloy with high strength and
electrical conductivity was designed. After aging, excellent properties of 857±12 MPa yield …

Metal-ceramic composites generally exhibit limited strength-plasticity synergy due to
pronounced difference in elastic and plastic deformation between “soft phase” and “hard …

In this study, we propose a novel defect engineering strategy for circumventing the strength–
ductility trade-off of a β-type Ti–35Nb–7Zr–5Ta alloy and discuss its underlying mechanism …

Laser surface remelting offers a promising approach to enhance both the mechanical
properties and corrosion resistance of metallic materials by tailoring their surface …

Metastable β titanium alloys are attracting great interest due to their intricate plastic
deformation mechanisms. In this work, a novel metastable β titanium alloy Ti-6Mo-3.5 Cr-1Zr …

Highlights•The increase of the proportion of β phase reduces the sensitivity of hydrogen-
induced cracking.•Hydrogen-induced cracking (HIC) preferentially occures in the α …
