| Research Abstract |
A specific phase that is not etched during etching because of higher corrosion resistance to an etching solution is formed in a biomedical β-type titanium alloy, Ti-29Nb-13Ta-4.6Zr, subjected to high pressure torsion. Higher corrosion resistance of the specific phase than that of matrix was elucidated in this study. It is found that the alloying element distribution in the specific phase is different from that in the matrix; the alloying element is distributed more homogeneously in the specific phase than the matrix. This homogeneous element distribution is considered to be obtained by strong mechanical stir of high pressure torsion, and to cause higher corrosion resistance of the specific phase than that of the matrix.
