Phase transformations during artificial and isothermal aging of Ti-6.8Mo-4.5Fe-1.5Al have been investigated over the temperature range from 300 °C to 750 °C utilizing hardness measurements, X-ray diffraction, optical microscopy, and electron microscopy. Artificial aging following solution treatment and water quenching initially involved growth of the athermalωphase. This was followed by formation of theαphase, either in association with theωphase, through homogeneous precipitation within the matrix, or through heterogeneous grain-boundary nucleation. Similarly, isothermal decomposition of the metastableβphase resulted in the precipitation ofωphase exhibiting an ellipsoidal morphology. While precipitation ofωwas immediate at 345 °C, an incubation period was observed upon aging at 390 °C. Isothermal aging above this temperature involved direct precipitation of theαphase, either homogeneously within theβmatrix or heterogeneously atβgrain boundaries. The extent of homogeneousvsheterogeneousαnucleation during isothermal aging depended upon aging temperature; low aging temperatures promote homogeneous nucleation and higher aging temperatures promoteαheterogeneous nucleation. Finally, continued aging resulted, independent of aging path, in coarsening and spheroidization of theαphase.
