The influences of second phase precipitations of low Young's modulus (E) β-Ti alloys [MoTi14]Zr1 (Ti78.2Mo11.2Zr10.6) and [SnTi14]Mo1(Ti75.7Mo10.9Sn13.4) on mechanical properties as well as the variation of phase constitutions of alloys during tensile test were investigated. Alloy rods with 6 mm diameter were prepared by copper-mould suction-cast method. Phase precipitations and microstructures of alloys before and after tension were analyzed by XRD and TEM techniques. The experimental results showed that only a minor amount of α〞martensite precipitated on β matrix makes the suction-cast [SnTi14]Mo1 alloy possess lower E with a value of 70 GPa, while ω precipitation increases the E (80 GPa) of [MoTi14]Zr1 alloy. It is due to the thinner β plate twins that makes [SnTi14]Mo1 alloy have better mechanical properties. During tensile testing, the amount of α〞martensite induced by stress increases in [MoTi14]Zr1 alloy while β grains in [SnTi14]Mo1 alloy are easier to be rotated for deformation, which favors to enhance the ductility of alloys.
