The objective of this paper was to study the effect of heavy interstitial atoms on anelastic properties of Ti-Mo alloys using mechanical spectroscopy. The internal friction and Young's modulus were measured as a function of temperature using dynamic mechanical analyser. The internal friction spectra were brought about by relaxation processes attributed to shortrange stress induced reorientation of interstitial and substitutional complexes in solid solution. It is suggested that the ature of the relaxing entities can be worked out in further research on Ti-Mo single crystals.25-30engAnelasticityBiomaterialsInternal frictionInterstitialsMechanical spectroscopyTi-Mo alloysArtigo10.1515/amm-2016-0011Acesso restrito2-s2.0-8496050044183236536898150960000-0001-5788-1417
