AbstractUltrasonic surface deep rolling (USDR), oxygen boost diffusion (OBD), and their combination (USDR-OBD) were all used to improve the surface hardening of pure titanium. The microstructure, microhardness, and fatigue life of pure titanium treated by USDR, OBD, and USDR-OBD methods were analyzed. USDR treatment induced a severe deformation area, while OBD treatment produced a brittle oxygen diffusion zone. The USDR-OBD treated samples approached the highest hardness in comparison with other treated samples. The fatigue lives of USDR treated samples were improved, which was due to the high compressive residual stress and refined grains. However, the fatigue lives of both OBD treated samples and USDR-OBD treated samples were decreased due to premature crack initiation and rapid propagation in the oxygen diffusion zone. Finally, the fatigue fracture mechanisms of different samples were proposed.

In order to determine the evolution features of deformation twins for TA2 commercial pure titanium (cp-TA2), the TA2 samples were bent under different bending angles in three-point bending tests via a universal testing machine. The electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) technique was applied to identify the grain boundaries (GBs) and twin boundaries (TBs) in the bending areas. The results reveal that the type of deformation area would effect the evolution of different deformation twins. It is inferred that the state of stress would promote the multiplication of the same type of deformation twins.

Abstract In order to improve properties of complex automotive components, such as crankshafts, in an application-oriented way, several surface hardening treatments can be applied. Concerning the material performance the definition of adequate process parameters influences the resulting surface properties and, thus, the effectiveness of surface hardening treatments. To analyze most relevant process-microstructure-property relationships, the present paper reports results obtained by two different well-established surface hardening procedures, i. e. deep rolling as a mechanical treatment and induction hardening as a thermal treatment. For each hardening process widely used crankshaft steel grades, i. e. a medium carbon 38MnSiVS5 microalloyed steel and a quenched and tempered 42CrMo4 were selected and thoroughly characterized upon processing, using equal parameter settings. The results reveal that deep rolling in contrast to induction hardening proves to be a less sensitive surface layer treatment with regard to small differences in the initial microstructure, the chemical composition and the applied process parameters. Differences in microstructure evolution with respect to the applied surface hardening treatment are studied and discussed for the highly stressed fillet region of automotive crankshaft sections for all conditions. In this context, high-resolution SEM-based techniques such as EBSD and ECCI are proven to be very effective for fast qualitative evaluation of induced microstructural changes.

Abstract This study performed experiments and thermodynamic calculations to elucidate the effects of diffusion temperature on interfacial evolution and mechanical properties of pure titanium and carbon steel (i.e., steel) sheets bonded via a new type of multi-pass continuous hot-roll diffusion with nickel interlayer. The interfacial evolution results revealed that this new type of multi-pass continuous hot-roll diffusion treatment showed a very good adherence due to its metallurgy bonding, because it made a remarked improve to between compound and intermetallic compounds relationship. Secondly, in mechanical properties results revealed that the highest shear strength (∼470 MPa) was obtained at a processing temperature of 850°C. The highest peel strength (∼21 N/mm) was obtained in the sample processed at 900°C. Bonding temperatures above and below these levels reduced the bond strength respectively due to poor atom diffusion and excessive compound formation, resulting in joint failure at the Ti-Ni interface. Extensive cleavage planes with various alignments were observed on the fracture surfaces in these cases. Overall, a hot-rolling temperature of 850°C was found to provide the optimal tradeoff between interfacial bonding strength and ductility. This work provided an economical and convenient solution for broadening the engineering application of interface between sheets of pure titanium and steel.

Tension-tension fatigue tests were conducted using ultrafine-grained commercially pure Titanium (Ti) plates fabricated by multi-directional forging (MDFing). The MDFed pure Ti plates with the thickness of 1 mm were developed aiming at dental implant application. The fatigue properties of MDFed pure Ti plates were superior to those of the conventional rolled pure Ti plates. The higher fatigue strengths in MDFed plates could be attributed to the much finer grains evolved by MDFing. Fatigue crack initiated from specimen surface, when number of cycles to failure was shorter than 106 cycles. In the high cycle fatigue (HCF) region, however, subsurface crack initiation with typical fish-eye feature was recognized in the MDFed pure Ti plate in spite of the thin thickness. Fractographic analyses revealed that no inclusion existed at the center of fish-eye. The subsurface crack initiation mechanism could be related to the inhomogeneity of microstructure with some coarse grains in the inner part of the plate.
