Overview

Systematic annealing modifies microstructure and improves mechanical properties in titanium matrix composites, suggesting new fabrication strategies.

Key Points

  • Heat treatment effectively refined microstructure, enhancing the mechanical properties of the titanium matrix composites.
  • Tensile strength increased to 1109 MPa, representing a 21.6% improvement over the as-cast composites.
  • Annealing contributed to a reduction in hardness, while stabilizing the TiB phase during high-temperature exposure.
  • These findings highlight controlled heat treatment as a viable strategy to balance strength and ductility in DED composites.
