Popis: The composition of high-damage-tolerance dual-phase TC21 (Ti-6Al-2Zr-2Sn-2Mo-2Nb-1.5Cr) were analyzed on the basis of the dual-cluster formula of Ti-6Al-4V, consisting of 13 α-Ti and 4 β-Ti unit. Its β-Ti unit is reduced from 5 to 4 compared with Ti-6Al-4V, while adding more β-stabilizing elements to enhance the strength and plasticity. Subsequently, the atoms of each β-stabilizing element within the β-Ti cluster formula of TC21 were proportioned equally to increase the mixing entropy, and more Zr content was increased to substantially enhance the β-phase stability, giving the cluster formula as α-{[Al-Ti12](AlTi2)}13+β-{[(Al-(Ti12Zr2)]Sn0.75Mo0.75Nb0.75Cr0.75}4(atom fraction), named as TC21Z2, with the corresponding mass fraction of Ti-5.9Al-5.4Zr-2.6Sn-2.1Mo-2.0Nb-1.1Cr. The samples were prepared by using vacuum copper mold pouring process and the as-cast microstructure and tensile mechanical properties of the alloy were studied.Results show that the as-cast microstructure of TC21Z2 is composed of α+α' martensite+ a small amount of β phases, and its ultimate tensile strength, yield strength and elongation are 1289, 1181 MPa and 1.4%, respectively. Its strength and plasticity are better than those of the TC21 at the same state.
