In the as-cast Ti-55 alloy, the intragranular rare earth-rich phase particles are about 1. 0~14 μm in diameter, elliptical, and rich in Nd, Sn, and O.

The contents of Nd and Sn on the grain boundaries are higher than those at other sites. The intragranular phases grow preferably at the region on the grain boundaries, which causes the formation of the elliptical morphology of the intragranular phases.展开更多
