High-current pulsed electron-beam (PEB) treatment was applied as a surface finishing procedure for Ti–35Nb–7Zr–5Ta (TNZT) alloy produced by electron beam melting (EBM). According to the XRD results the TNZT alloy samples before and after the PEB treatment have shown mainly the single body-centered c...
