Common Phases for Titanium Alloys
The following lists common phase names and the corresponding Thermo‑Calc database phase names for some key titanium alloys.
Electrical resistivity and thermal conductivity are only assessed for the phases listed here except those marked with an asterisk (*).
TCTI6 Models for the Included Phases
Name in the Database |
Common Name and Description |
---|---|
ALTI_L10 | This is the γ phase in TiAl-based alloys. |
ALTI3_D019 | This is the α2 phase. |
BCC_B2 |
This is the β phase. The ordered B2 phase with the disordered BCC_A2 has been modeled with the so-called partition model. It is always labeled as BCC_B2 in calculations with TCTI. It is necessary to check the constitution of the phase to find out whether it is ordered or not. Electrical resistivity and thermal conductivity are assessed for BCC_A2, BCC_B2 with available data. |
B19_ORTHO* | This is the orthorhombic martensite in Ti-Ni-based alloys. |
B19_PRIME* | This is the monoclinic martensite in Ti-Ni-based alloys. |
B82_omega | This is the ωo phase in TiAl-based alloys. |
CUZR2_C11B | CuTi2 is modeled as this phase. |
CU4TI1 | Cu4Ti is modeled as this phase. |
DELTA_TIH2 | This is the delta dihydride (eg. TiH2) with CaF2 as prototype. |
FCC_B1 | Titanium carbide, nitride, oxide with NaCl as prototype. |
HCP_A3 | This is the α phase. The descriptions of α' (Hcp martensite) and α" (orthorhombic martensite) are unified into HCP_A3 phase in the database by now. |
Liquid | Metallic liquid solution. |
MSI_B27 | TiSi is modeled as this phase. |
M3SI1 | Ti3Si is modeled as this phase. |
M5SI3_D88 | Ti5Si3 is modeled as this phase. |
O_PHASE | This is the orthorhombic phase stable in Ti-Al-Nb, Ti-Al-Ta and possibly in multicomponent TiAl alloys. |
OMEGA* | The omega phase is a metastable phase which forms in titanium and its alloys with transition elements (like V, Mo, Nb, Fe, etc). |
R_MARTE* | This is an intermediate martensite, R-phase, in Ti-Ni-based alloys. |
RUTILE_TIO2 | TiO2 is modeled as this phase. |
TiB_B27 | TiB is modeled as this phase. |
TiB2_C32 | TiB2 is modeled as this phase. |
Ti2N_C4 | Ti2N is modeled as this phase. |
Ti2Ni3* | This is a tetragonal metastable precipitate in Ti-Ni alloys. |
Ti3Ni4* | This is a metastable precipitate in Ti-Ni alloys. |
Ti3B4 | Ti3B4 is modeled as this phase. |
Ti3N2 | η-Ti3N2-x phase in Ti-N binary. |
Ti4N3 |
![]() |
TiSi2_C54 | TiSi2 is modeled as this phase. |
Zr5Si4 | Ti5Si4 is modeled as this phase. |
* Electrical resistivity and thermal conductivity are not assessed for this phase. |
