Abstrakt: An investigation has been made of the constitution of the titanium rich partial Ti–V–Fe–Al system in the composition range applicable to commercial a+ß and ß Ti–V–Fe–Al alloys (e.g. Ti–10V–2Fe–3Al alloy) and at temperatures between 650 and 800°C. Partial Ti–V–Fe isothermal sections for alloys containing ~4 wt-%Al and V and Fe in a ratio =1:1 show only a and ß as the equilibrium phases for compositions up to 13 wt-%V and 4 wt-%Fe. The position of the a+ß/ß boundary is temperature dependent and its shape is affected by the amount of aluminium present in the ß in equilibrium with a in the quaternary Ti–V–Fe–Al alloys. By contrast, the a/a+ß boundary is independent of these parameters. Microstructural features relating to morphology and volume fractions of a and ß phases have been investigated and, together with the compositions of a and ß, are discussed in the context of alloy properties and processing.MST/1323
