Phase boundary mediated twinning in stress-induced martensitic bands in metastable Ti-6Mo-3.5Cr-1Zr alloy

Puntos clave

• Twinning occurs due to phase boundary influences under stress conditions, enhancing material properties.
• Key observations indicate a relation between stress and the behavior of martensitic bands in the alloy.
• Investigation employs advanced microscopy to analyze the structural changes of the alloy during stress application.
• Findings suggest that phase boundary effects play a crucial role in the formation of martensitic structures.
