Abstract
⺠Elastic anisotropy in the Ti-15Mo-5Zr-3Al alloy was first clarified. ⺠The alloy shows the strong orientation dependence of the Young's modulus. ⺠The Young's modulus shows low value of 44.4 GPa along the ã100ã direction. ⺠β-Ti alloys having extremely low moduli can be developed by reducing the e/a ratio. ⺠Strategy for developing the single crystalline β-Ti implant material was established.
