Abstract
Abstract Heat treatment is a fundamental metallurgical process aimed at achieving desired mechanical properties. This article aims at analysing the impact of annealing process of heat treatment with the solution heat treatment and ageing of Ti6Al4V alloy on the mechanical properties such as microstructure, fracture toughness, tensile strength and hardness of titanium alloy under each heat-treating process. Heat treatment processes aids in creating a sustainable manufacturing process for industries.
