In this study, the high-temperature microstructural characteristics of the Ti–5Al–1Sn–1Fe–1Cr (Ti-5111) alloy were determined by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry. During solution treatment between 800 and 1000°C, the phase transformation sequence of the alloy was found to be (α+β)→(α+α′+β)→(α+α′+α″+residual β)→(α′+β). The residual β phase subsequently transforms to the α″ phase during quenching. The driving force for this transformation is the cooling rate. The martensite starting point (Ms) and β transus temperature of the Ti-5111 alloy are nearly 860 and 960°C, respectively. These values are lower than those of the Ti–6Al–4V alloy. Moreover, it is believed that the concentration of Al in α′ martensite plays a crucial role in the formation of the twin-type martensite.
