摘要 |
The present disclosure is related to homogeneous alloys comprising titanium and 9% to less than 20% by weight of tungsten, wherein the alloy has a yield strength of at least 120,000 psi and ductility of least 20% elongation; and with further alloying an ultimate tensile strength of at least 200,000 psi and useful ductility of at least 2% elongation; and with the addition of ceramic particulate reinforcements can exhibit an ultimate tensile strength of at least 180,000 psi. Products and metal matrix composites comprising such homogeneous alloys are also disclosed. The metal matrix composites further comprise a discontinuous reinforcement chosen from TiC, TiB2, or TiB, particles or combinations of such particles. Method of making such alloys and composites as well as products made from such alloys and composites are also disclosed.
