摘要

Compression properties of three binary Ti–Mo alloys for potential use as load-bearing implants were investigated in this study. Three binary alloys, namely, Ti–15Mo, Ti–17Mo, and Ti–20Mo, were designed using theoretical predictive methods and produced using a plasma melting system. Melted ingots were heat treated in a muffle furnace at 1100 °C for 1 h and quenched in ice brine water. X-ray diffraction patterns demonstrated β + α″ phase peaks, deformation mechanisms showed thin parallel plates in TM15, wide deformation bands, and wavy thin lines in TM17 and wavy thin lines only in TM20 alloy. Compressive yield and ultimate strength as well as hardness decreased with an increase in Mo content. On contrary, compression strain increased with increasing Mo content.
