Pure Ti traditionally exhibits the hexagonal closed packed (HCP) crystallographic structure under ambient conditions and the body centered cubic (BCC) structure at elevated temperatures. In addition to these typical structures for Ti alloys, the presence of a face centered cubic (FCC) phase associated with thin films, interfaces, or high levels of plastic deformation has occasionally been reported. Here we show that small FCC precipitates form in freestanding thin foils during in situ transmission electron microscope (TEM) heating and we discuss the potential origins of the FCC phase in light of the in situ observations. This FCC phase was found to be stable upon cooling and under ambient conditions, which allowed us to explore its mechanical properties and stability via nanomechanical in situ TEM testing. It was found that FCC platelets within the HCP matrix phase were stable under mechanical deformation and exhibited similar mechanical deformation behavior as the parent HCP phase.
