Comparing Ti-22Nb and Ti-22Nb-2/10Zr alloys, the crystal structure of carbides is unchanged, but the lattice parameter of -Ti increases, then carbide fraction slightly decreases. Dissolution of carbides occurs fast around -transus temperature via short circuit diffusion but it becomes slow with decreasing temperature because of uniform atomic detachment. Based on these results, a multiple step treatment was proposed which in conjunction with grain refinement by adding Y/Y2O3, can significantly decrease the carbide fraction of Ti-22Nb-10Zr-xY/Y2O3.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.matlet.2017.01.145} (DOI).
