Fiber reinforced titanium matrix composites (Ti MMCs) are of great interest for use in aeronautical gas-turbine engines because of their improved specific strength and stiffness and elevated temperature performance compared to monolithic Ti alloys. The Defence Evaluation and Research Agency is studying Ti MMCs for use in gas-turbine compressor discs. This report investigates the effect of the matrix alloy on the longitudinal tensile behavior of Ti MMCs reinforced with SM1140+ SiC fiber.
