The plastic deformation mechanism of Ti-55531 alloy with bimodal microstructure was investigated by compression testing at room temperature. The bimodal microstructure was composed of equiaxed primary α phase (αp) and transformed β (βtrans) that consisted of acicular secondary α phase (αs) and residual β phase (βr). In the initial stage of deformation, the αp grains first underwent plastic deformation, the dislocations germinated and increased, forming the dislocation loop with the dislocation free zone in αp at the true stain of 0.083. With the true strain subsequently increasing to 0.105, the dislocation tangle and dislocation pile-up occurred in αp, and a lot of dislocations were also activated in most of αs. Moreover, the dislocation density was increasing gradually in βr with the adding of strain. Finally, the dislocation pile-up and dislocation tangle appeared in αs and βr at the true strain of 0.163. The whole deformation process was coordinated by αp, αs and βr. They accommodated mutually and completed deformation together.

This work discusses the influence of the processing temperature, time and processing strain on the microstructure of the Ti6Al2Sn4Zr6Mo alloy. The Ti6Al2Sn4Zr6Mo alloy belongs to the two-phase (α+β) type of titanium alloys. The samples were compressed with the use of the Gleeble thermo-mechanical simulator at the temperatures of: 800, 900, 950, 1000 and 1100°C and at the strain rates of: 0.01; 0.1; 1; 10 and 100 s-1 to a total true strain of 1. The occurrence of the primary α phase in the Ti6Al2Sn4Zr6Mo alloy was investigated. The diagram showing the influence of the processing temperature and the strain rate on the dynamic recrystallization of the β phase was presented.The occurrence of the primary α phase precipitates blocks the grain growth. Therefore, the plastic deformation of this alloy should be carried out at a temperature at which the separation of the primary α phase occurs to finally obtain a material with a fine grain.

The phase transformations of the alloy Ti-40 mas % Nb after tempering and severe plastic deformation are studied. The phase transformations of the alloy according to the type and conditions of external influences are analyzed using methods of XRD, SEM and optical metallography. It is determined that inverse phase transformation of the metastable α''-phase to equilibrium β-phase is carried out after severe plastic deformation. Complete phase transformation α'' → β is typical for the mode, which consists of three pressing operation with the change of the loading axis in cramped conditions, followed by a multi-pass rolling in grooved rolls.

It is generally accepted that fine-grained and equiaxed microstructure enables superplastic deformation of two-phase titanium alloys. Appropriate microstructure is usually developed in the thermomechanical processing with careful selection of the parameters of plastic deformation and heat treatment. Based on results of own research in this area increased superplasticity was found in Ti6Al4V alloy having microstructure containing highly deformed and elongated α-grains – considerably different from equiaxed ones. It was found that during heating up and first stage of superplastic deformation fragmentation of elongated α-phase grains occurred, followed by formation and growth of globular grains of that phase. Particular role of quenching of the Ti6Al4V alloy from the stable β-phase temperature range in thermomechanical processing was identified. It leads to increase of elongation coefficient of α-phase grains after plastic deformation but also restrains nucleation of the precipitates of secondary α-phase in further stages of thermomechanical processing. It was established that developed phase morphology of the alloy determined its hot plasticity – especially in the range of low strain rates typical for superplastic deformation.

This paper investigates microstructures and mechanical properties of the TI-6AL-4V ELI alloy processed by ECAP and extrusion with various morphology of α and β-phase. Preliminary thermal treatment consisted of quenching and further high-temperature ageing. The present work reveals that the decrease of volume fraction of α-phase globular component in the initial billet results in a more homogeneous structure refinement during SPD, lower internal stress, enhancement of microstructure stability and mechanical properties. An ultimate strength of UTS ≥1350 MPa was obtained in the Ti-6Al-4V ELI alloy while maintaining a ductility of δ≥11%.

A study was conducted by optical microscope (OM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) on the microstructure evolution of TA15 alloy by severe plastic deformation (SPD) and annealing after SPD. In this study, equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) was taken as the method of SPD. The chief aim of the present work is to investigate the temperature effects of ECAP and annealing after ECAP on microstructure of TA15 alloy. The results indicate that equiaxed microstructure has been obtained by ECAP at the temperatures of α+β phase region, and that with the increase in pressing temperature, equiaxed grains have become coarser and the content of α phase has reduced. β grains have been coarsened severely since the pressing temperature was above the α-β transformation temperature (Tβ). Annealed at proper temperature after ECAP, the α phase of TA15 alloy has been more homogeneous, prior α phase has been well globularized, and grains have not grown obviously. According to the testing of TA15 alloy, the optimized temperature parameters of ECAP and annealing after ECAP are 900°C and 700°C. Observation and Analysis of the TEM morphological images illustrate that a quantity of twinning deformations have been produced by ECAP at the temperatures below Tβ, which leads to the continued plastic deformation through the restarting of many slip bands.

SummaryThe catabolism of the novel plasminogen activator reteplase (BM 06.022) was described. For this purpose BM 06.022 was radiolabelled with l25I or with the accumulating label l25I-tyramine cellobiose (l25I-TC).BM 06.022 was injected at a pharmacological dose of 380 μg/kg b.w. and it was cleared from the plasma in a biphasic manner with a half-life of about 1 min in the α-phase and t1/2of 20-28 min in the β-phase. 28% and 72% of the injected dose was cleared in the α-phase and β-phase, respectively. Initially liver, kidneys, skin, bones, lungs, spleen, and muscles contributed mainly to the plasma clearance. Only liver and the kidneys, however, were responsible for the uptake and subsequent degradation of BM 06.022 and contributed for 75% to the catabolism of BM 06.022. BM 06.022 was degraded in the lysosomal compartment of both organs. Parenchymal liver cells were responsible for 70% of the liver uptake of BM 06.022. BM 06.022 associated rapidly to isolated rat parenchymal liver cells and was subsequently degraded in the lysosomal compartment of these cells. BM 06.022 bound with low-affinity to the parenchymal liver cells (550 nM) and the binding of BM 06.022 could be displaced by t-PA (IC50 5.6 nM), indicating that the low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein (LRP) could be involved in the binding of BM 06.022. GST-RAP, which is an inhibitor of LRP, could in vivo significantly inhibit the uptake of BM 06.022 in the liver.It is concluded that BM 06.022 is metabolized primarily in the liver and the kidneys. These organs take up and degrade BM 06.022 in the lysosomes. The uptake mechanism of BM 06.022 in the kidneys is unknown, while LRP is responsible for a low-affinity binding and uptake of BM 06.022 in parenchymal liver cells.

ABSTRACTThe mechanical alloying behavior of elemental powders in the Nb-Si, Ta-Si, and Nb-Ta-Si systems was examined via X-ray diffraction. The line compounds NbSi2 and TaSi2 form as crystalline compounds rather than amorphous products, but Nb5Si3 and Ta5Si3, although chemically analogous, respond very differently to mechanical milling. The Ta5Si3 composition goes directly from elemental powders to an amorphous product, whereas Nb5Si3 forms as a crystalline compound. The Nb5Si3 compound consists of both the tetragonal room-temperature α phase (c/a = 1.8) and the tetragonal high-temperature β phase (c/a = 0.5). Substituting increasing amounts of Ta for Nb in Nb5Si3 initially stabilizes the α-Nb5Si3 structure preferentially, and subsequently inhibits the formation of a crystalline compound.
