A Ti67.79Fe28.36Sn3.85 ternary alloy has been prepared through arc-melting and solidification at a cooling rate of 40-10 K/s. The as-prepared microstructure of the button-shape ingot exhibits a two phase ultra-fine eutectic consisting of FeTi (Pm3m, B2) and beta-Ti (Im3m, A2) phases. The mechanical properties (maximum strength = 1939 MPa, strain to fracture = 13.5%) are considerably improved compared to the Ti70.5Fe29.5 binary eutectic alloy (maximum strength = 1733 MPa, strain to fracture = 3.4%). The improvement of the strength and plastic deformability is assessed in terms of a detailed investigation of the microstructure and fractographic studies. The presence of Sn is believed to boost the ease of slip transfer across the interface between the A2/B2 phases due a higher lattice mismatch between the structures. This work was funded by European Union within the framework of the Research Training Network on No-dqductile bulk metallic glass compositesNo-dq (MRTN-CT-2003-504692) and by Alexander-von-Humboldt Foundation.
