Effects of volume fraction of α phase and grain size on the creep properties of a series of two-phase titanium alloys were examined. The chemical compositions of α and β phases of the alloys were designed to be constant. The alloys were quenched after solution-treatments for 1, 100, and 1 000 h at 1...
