Mechanical behavior and microstructure evolution of Ti and Ti-64 titanium alloy during warm “abc” deformation has been studied. The “abc” deformation was consisted of successive compression of a sample along three orthogonal directions. Mechanical behavior of each material was described by set of successive σ-ε curves combined into cumulative σ-Σε curve. Microstructure of Ti was found to be refined to a grain size of about 0.4 μm due to formation of deformation-induced boundaries within initial grains. Although a stage like steady state flow was observed at the cumulative σ-Σε curve such mechanical behavior was hardly associated with superplastic flow. In two-phase Ti-64 alloy the structure was found to be refined to a grain size of about 0.4 μm after warm “abc” deformation due to globularization α- and β-particles following breaking down of α-lamellar and β- layers. Microstructure refinement of the alloy was associated with softening and superplastic flow.

Ti-6Al-3Sn-3Zr-3Mo-3Nb-1W-0.2Si (BTi-6431S) alloy is a novel two-phase high temperature titanium alloy for short-term using in aerospace industry up to 700°C. The effects of heat treatment on the microstructure evolution of BTi-6431S alloy bar were investigated through optical microscopy (OM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results show that solution treatment in β region at 1010°C followed by water quenching results in the formation of orthorhombic martensite α′′ phase, while air cooling leads to the formation of hexagonal martensite α′ phase. When solution-treated in α+β phase field at temperatures from 900°C to 980°C following by water quenching, the content of primary α phase decreases with the increase of heat treatment temperature. For the alloy subjected to identical heat treatment, the content of Al in α phase is much higher than that in β phase, while the contents of Nb, Mo and W elements in α phase are much less than those in β phase.

The mechanical properties of two-phase Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy with ultrafine grained microstructure were studied in the present work. Bulk ultrafine grained specimens of the alloy were produced by means of warm “abc” deformation. The final structure consisted of α/β particles with a size of 500 nm. Extensive studies of the mechanical properties of this material in comparison with conventionally heat-strengthened condition were conducted. A room-temperature strength and fatigue resistance of the ultrafine grained material was found to be 25-40% higher than that of heat-strengthened alloy. However such ductility related properties as tensile elongation and impact toughness noticeably decreased with decreasing grain size. Efficacy of ductility improvement and the strength/ductility balance optimization were analyzed.

X-ray diffraction and EBSD techniques were applied to investigate microstructure evolution and phase transition of thermal deformed TA15 titanium alloy under different heating methods(β phase zone heating and conventional heating). The results indicate that microstructures of thermal deformed TA15 titanium alloy after water quenching appear grain refinement undergoing these two kinds of heating methods. A large number of primary equiaxed α grains are retained after two phase zone deformation under conventional heating method. Meanwhile more regular arrangement and greater cluster of acicular plate martensite microstructure and clear original β grains are obtained through β phase deformation and water quenching. The diffraction peak of (200) crystal face of Al-rich α phase disappears under β phase zone heating method. The preferential orientation of TA15 titanium alloy after thermal deformation and water quenching is reduced obviously under β phase zone heating method.
