A relatively new class of ȕ-phase having a body-centered cubic structure Ti alloy termed multifunctional titanium alloy (MFTA) or ‘Gum Metal’ with the composition of Ti-23Nb-07Ta-2Zr-O (mole %) has been shown to possess many interesting properties such as superplasticity at room temperature without extensive work hardening. In the heavily deformed state, it also possesses an ultra-low elastic modulus, ultra-high strength, large elasticity, and Elinvar and Invar properties. In this study, we have synthesized this alloy composition by a melting process, contrary to the original alloy, which was manufactured via a unique powder metallurgy process. The objective of this study is to show if the ‘super’ mechanical properties of this alloy composition could still be obtained by this alternative way of processing and compositions.

Amorphous and bulk amorphous metallic alloys are an intriguing class of structural materials and possess a range of interesting properties, including near theoretical strength, high hardness, extremely low damping characteristics, excellent wear properties, high corrosion resistance, low shrinkage during cooling and almost perfect as-cast surfaces with good potential for forming and shaping. In this study, new Ti-based bulk amorphous alloys are tried to be modeled and synthesized. For that purpose, electron...
Synthesis and structural characterization of multifunctional Ti alloy: gum metal
Elçin, Orkun; Akdeniz, M. Vedat.; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2020)
Gum metal (Ti-23Nb-0.7Ta-2Zr-1.2O at%), a newly discovered titanium alloy, is considered as a suitable unique alloy for structural applications in aerospace, sports equipment, industrial, and especially in biomedical areas because of their outstanding properties such as high yield strength (up to 2000 MPa) with low elastic modulus (50 GPa), and biocompatibility. Furthermore, in the heavily deformed state, it still possesses an ultra-low elastic modulus, ultra-high-strength, large elasticity (up to 2.5%), El...
