The microstructural evolution and tensile properties of Ti-3Al-8V-6Cr-4Mo-4Zr titanium alloys with various Si contents were investigated. The results revealed that the addition of trace Si and the presence of Zr induced the formation of (TiZr)₆Si₃ silicides, in the size range from 100 nm to 300 nm. The fine silicide precipitates refined β grains. The tensile strength increased about 40 MPa due to precipitation strengthening and grain refinement, and the ductility of the two alloys was similar. The tensile fracture mode of the alloys was dimple ductile fracture.
