The first three micrographs show a duplex microstructure with intergranular beta phase, forged with subsequent recrystallization. Micrographs 4 and 5 show a martensitic microstructure due to rapid cooling in the weld area.

The preparation of titanium specimens can present some difficulties. Here you will find a corresponding preparation recipe.
