- Abstract
- The present study was concerned with the effects of over-aging on damping property and fracture toughness in Ti-6Al-4V alloy. Damping property and toughness become important factors for titanium implants, which have big modulus difference between bone and implant, and need high damping capacity for bone-implant compatability. Widmanstdtten, equiaxed, and bimodal microstructures containing fine alpha(2) (Ti(3)Al) particles were obtained by over-aging a Ti-6Al-4V alloy. Over-aging heat treatment was conducted for 200 h at 545 degrees C. Fracture toughness, Charpy impact, and bending vibration tests were conducted on the unaged and the over-aged six microstructures, respectively. Charpy absorption energy and apparent fracture toughness decreased as over-aging was done, even if the materials were strengthened by precipitation of very fine and strong alpha(2)-Ti(3)Al particles. On the other hand, damping properties were enhanced by over-aging in Widmanstatten and equiaxed microstructures, but was weakened in bimodal microstructure due to the softening of tempered martensite and the decreasing of elastic difference between tempered martensite and alpha phase contained alpha(2) particles, etc. These data can provide effective information to future work about internal damping and fracture properties of Ti-6Al-4V alloy.
