The composition characteristics of typical bcc beta-Ti solid solution alloys with low Young's modulus were analyzed by using the cluster-plus-glue-atom model, in which an alloy structure is dissociated into a cluster part and a glue atom part, i.e. isolated clusters are linked with glue atoms. The cluster here is the nearest neighbor coordination polyhedron with a coordination number of 14 (CN14). It is confirmed that beta-Ti solid solution alloys with low Young's moduli satisfy a universal cluster formula [CN14 cluster](glue atom)(x), given by this model. Alloys, described by cluster formulas [MoTi14]Ti, [MoTi14]Nb, [MoTi14]Nb-2 and [Mo(Ti13Zr)]Nb-2, Ti-11.8Mo (mass fraction, %), Ti-11.2Mo-10.8Nb, Ti-10.1Mo-19.5Nb and Ti-9.2Zr-9.6Mo-18.7Nb were designed and the alloy rods with diameters of 3 and 6 mm were prepared by copper-mould suction-cast method, respectively. These suction-cast alloys possess monolithic bcc beta-Ti structure. The introduction of low-modulus Nb as glue atoms weakens the cluster linking and decreases the Young's modulus. Further substitutions with low-modulus Zr reduces the Young's modulus to 72 GPa in the [Mo(Ti13Zr)]Nb-2 alloy. Solution treatment plus subsequent water quenching decreases slightly the Young's moduli of the suction-cast alloys.
