Characteristics microstructure and microhardness of cast Ti-6Al-4V ELI for biomedical application submitted to solution treatment

Ti 6Al-4V ELI (Extra Low Interstitial)alloy containing 6wt% of aluminum, 4wt% of vanadium with controlled level of iron and oxygen is one of most popular alloy employed in biomedical applications as implant material. Heat treatment process for titanium alloys becomes important and could be performed by some of different ways in order to develop microstructure as well as its properties. The objective of this paper is to study the effects of...
