| Abstract: | Diffusion-controlled processes exert an indispensable influence on the thermal processing and microstructural homogenization of β-titanium alloys containing multiple β-stabilizing elements. However, credible multicomponent diffusion kinetic data corresponding to the β-phase within the Ti–Zr–Ta ternary system remain inadequate. In this work, diffusion characteristics within the β single-phase domain of the Ti–Zr–Ta system were investigated using solid-state diffusion couples combined with a numerical inverse method. Twelve diffusion couples in total were synthesized and subjected to annealing treatments at 1373, 1423, and 1473 K, with the corresponding composition–distance distributions quantified by electron probe microanalysis (EPMA). The composition-dependent main interdiffusion coefficients were measured via the numerical inverse method embedded in the HitDIC computational platform, while the atomic mobility parameters corresponding to the β-phase were refined to replicate the experimental concentration distributions and diffusion trajectories across the studied temperature and composition intervals. The results reveal pronounced temperature and composition dependence of the main interdiffusion coefficients, and the diffusion rate of Zr is faster than that of Ta in the β phase.
