The activation energy of the beta -> alpha/omega phase transformation increased monotonously with the application of a continuous heating process to a Ti-15Mo-2.7Nb-3Al-0.2Si alloy. Precipitation behaviour of the alloy aged at different temperatures were analysed with scanning electron microscopy, electron backscattered diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. Selected-area diffraction patterns of the omega, omega/alpha and alpha phases in the alloy aged at different temperatures indicated that the type of phase transformation was influenced by the precipitation process. Precipitate-free zones in the alloy aged at 450 degrees C for 8 h were harmful to the mechanical performance. Fine a precipitates with an obvious texture were obtained in the alloy aged at 500 degrees C. A good combination of tensile properties with an ultimate tensile strength of 1310 MPa and an elongation of 13.5% were obtained due to the expected microstructure and texture of the precipitates that transformed in the specimen when it was aged at 500 degrees C for 8 h. The size of the precipitates increased with increasing aging temperature. Furthermore, the amount of precipitates and their degree of texture decreased substantially in the alloy aged at 600 degrees C. The investigation of the tensile properties and fractures also revealed a correlation between the mechanical properties and precipitation behaviour in the Ti-15Mo-2.7Nb-3Al-0.2Si alloy aged at different temperatures.
