<p>Certain embodiments of a method for increasing the strength and toughness of a titanium alloy include plastically deforming a titanium alloy at a temperature in an alpha beta phase field of the titanium alloy to an equivalent plastic deformation of at least a 25% reduction in area. After plastically deforming the titanium alloy in the alpha beta phase field the titanium alloy is not heated to or above the beta transus temperature of the titanium alloy. After plastic deformation the titanium alloy is heat treated at a heat treatment temperature less than or equal to the beta transus temperature minus 20F (11.1°C).</p> |
