Abstract

First principle calculations based on density functional framework are employed to study the stability of β phase (bcc)with respect to α phase (hcp) in Ti-x(at.%)Nb alloys(x=6.25, 12.50, 18.75, 25, 31.25, 37.50, 50). In addition the elastic properties of all these combinations are calculated. The calculations showed that β phase in binary Ti-x(at.%)Nb is fully stabilized above 22(at.%) of Nb content. Calculated Young’s modulus for Ti-25(at.%)Nb is found to be 80GPa which is lower than the α-Ti alloys and there for suggesting reduction of ‘stress shielding effect’. Thermodynamically stable β phase in binary Ti-x(at.%)Nb is experimentally achieved with P/M prepared 25(at.%) of Nb and is confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis.
