The present paper investigates static and dynamic precipitation phenomena in the Ti6Al4V alloy produced via laser-powder bed fusion, solubilized at 1050 degrees C and aged in the range of 450-650 degrees C. In relation to the distance from the platform on which the samples are disposed during the solution heat treatment, the microstructure varies from alpha-laths to alpha-colonies arranged in a Widmanstatten structure. The aging heat treatment at 450 degrees C promotes the formation of stacking faults into alpha-laths and the precipitation of alpha(2)-Ti3Al phases. SEM and TEM observations reveal that the density of precipitates increases after aging at 500 degrees C, while coarsening of the alpha-phase occurs only after aging heat treatment at 600 degrees C. Vickers microhardness measurements reveal different peak-aging conditions and show that the alloy is unstable at high temperatures (T > 450 degrees C), both in the case of static and dynamic precipitation phenomena. Only the aging profile at 450 degrees C shows a constant trend of Vickers microhardness after 4 h of treatment.

Abstract
The present paper investigates static and dynamic precipitation phenomena in the Ti6Al4V alloy produced via laser-powder bed fusion, solubilized at 1050 degrees C and aged in the range of 450-650 degrees C. In relation to the distance from the platform on which the samples are disposed during the solution heat treatment, the microstructure varies from alpha-laths to alpha-colonies arranged in a Widmanstatten structure. The aging heat treatment at 450 degrees C promotes the formation of stacking faults into alpha-laths and the precipitation of alpha(2)-Ti3Al phases. SEM and TEM observations reveal that the density of precipitates increases after aging at 500 degrees C, while coarsening of the alpha-phase occurs only after aging heat treatment at 600 degrees C. Vickers microhardness measurements reveal different peak-aging conditions and show that the alloy is unstable at high temperatures (T > 450 degrees C), both in the case of static and dynamic precipitation phenomena. Only the aging profile at 450 degrees C shows a constant trend of Vickers microhardness after 4 h of treatment.
