In this paper,effect of the different forging processes on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the flat flat billets of TA15 titanium alloy was investigated.The flat billiets of 80 mm×150 mm×L sizes of TA15 titanium alloy are produced by four different forging processes.Then the different microstrure and properties of the flat billiets were obtained by heat treatment of 800 °C~850 °C×1 h~4h.The results show that, adopting the first forging temperature at T1 °C、slow cooling and the second forging temperature at T2°C 、quick cooling, the primary αphases content is just 10%, and there are lots of thin aciculate phases on the base. This microstructure has both high strength at room temperature and high temperature, while the properties between the cross and lengthwise directions are just the same. So the hot processing of the first forging temperature at T1 °C、slow cooling and the second forging temperature at T2°C 、quick cooling is choosed as the ideal processing for production of aircraft frame parts.

The paper investigates the possibility of increasing the strength of the experimental high-alloyed titanium alloy due to various methods of thermal action, leading to a change in its phase composition and intragrain structure. Changes in mechanical properties in correlation with the change in structure in the annealed, tempered and heat-hardened state are reviewed. It is shown that by controlling phase transformations in highalloyed two-phase titanium alloys, it is possible to realize high-strength state with satisfactory plastic characteristics. The optimal complex of mechanical properties is provided by heat treatment, which leads to the creation of a two-phase heterogeneous structure with a developed bimodal intragrain structure.

Ti-5553 (Ti-5Al-5V-5Mo-3Cr, wt. %) alloy is a recently developed near β titanium alloy and it has a very good hardenability, good ductility and high strength. In this study, we discussed the feasibility of preparing Ti-5553 alloy by different processes from powder mixtures of hydride-dehydride titanium powder, elemental powders and master alloy powders, including (1) direct extrusion of powder compact in argon, (2) extrusion of the vacuum-sintered billet in air and (3) extrusion of the hot-pressed billet in air. XRD, OM and SEM were used to determine the phase constitutions and microstructures of the prepared Ti-5553 alloys, and mechanical test was performed to examine their mechanical properties. The results showed the microstructures and phase constitutions of Ti-5553 alloys were significantly affected by different processes, which resulted in the relevant mechanical properties. The effect of the selected heat treatment on the microstructures and properties of Ti-5553 alloy were investigated as well.

Titanium additions are often used for boron factor and primary austenite grain size control in boron high- and ultra-high-strength alloys. Due to the risk of formation of coarse TiN during solidification the addition of titanium is limited in respect to nitrogen. The risk of coarse nitrides working as non-metallic inclusions formed in the last solidification front can degrade fatigue properties and weldability of the final product. In the presented study three microalloying systems with minor additions were tested, two without any titanium addition, to evaluate grain size evolution and mechanical properties with pre-defined as-cast, hot forging, hot rolling, and off-line heat-treatment strategy to meet demands for S1100QL steel. Microstructure evolution from hot-forged to final martensitic microstructure was observed, continuous cooling transformation diagrams of non-deformed austenite were constructed for off-line heat treatment, and the mechanical properties of Nb and V–Nb were compared to Ti–Nb microalloying system with a limited titanium addition. Using the parameters in the laboratory environment all three micro-alloying systems can provide needed mechanical properties, especially the Ti–Nb system can be successfully replaced with V–Nb having the highest response in tensile properties and still obtaining satisfying toughness of 27 J at –40 °C using Charpy V-notch samples.

In order to obtain high-strength and high-ductility Al–Si–Cu–Mg alloys, the present research is focused on optimizing the composition of soluble phases, the structure and morphology of insoluble phases, and artificial ageing processes. The results show that the best matches, 0.4 wt% Mg and 1.2 wt% Cu in the Al–9Si alloy, avoided the toxic effect of the blocky Al2Cu on the mechanical properties of the alloy. The addition of 0.6 wt% Zn modified the morphology of eutectic Si from coarse particles to fine fibrous particles and the texture of Fe-rich phases from acicular β-Fe to blocky π-Fe in the Al–9Si–1.2Cu–0.4Mg-based alloy. With the optimization of the heat treatment parameters, the spherical eutectic Si and the fully fused β-Fe dramatically improved the ultimate tensile strength and elongation to fracture. Compared with the Al–9Si–1.2Cu–0.4Mg-based alloy, the 0.6 wt% Zn modified alloy not only increased the ultimate tensile strength and elongation to fracture of peak ageing but also reduced the time of peak ageing. The following improved combination of higher tensile strength and higher elongation was achieved for 0.6 wt% Zn modified alloy by double-stage ageing: 100 °C × 3 h + 180 °C × 7 h, with mechanical properties of ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of ~371 MPa, yield strength (YS) of ~291 MPa, and elongation to fracture (E%) of ~5.6%.
