The mechanical and physical properties of ultrafine-grained titanium alloys produced by severe plastic deformation are considered. It is found that the formation of ultrafine-grained structure in these materials causes a significant enhancement in their mechanical properties at room temperature and in their resistance to hydrogen embrittlement as well as a change in their acoustic properties. Moreover, superplasticity is realized in these materials at less elevated temperatures relative to the respective coarse grained counterparts. It is shown that the above changes in material properties permit optimization of conditions by the production of items from the titanium alloys, e.g. medical implants having the requisite strength and stepped waveguides having long life even in the high power density conditions of an ultrasound system.

A study was carried out on aging behaviour of a 6082 alloy processed by two different severe plastic deformation techniques: ECAP and asymmetric rolling. Both techniques were able to generate an ultrafine-grained structure in samples processed at room temperature. It was stated that severe straining promotes marked changes in the postdeformation aging kinetics. The peaks of β′′/β′ transition phases were anticipated and of progressively reduced intensity over the coarse grained alloy. A further peak accounting for onset of recrystallization also appeared in the most severely deformed samples. Full consistency in peak shape and position was found when comparing materials processed by ECAP and asymmetric rolling. Isothermal aging treatments performed at 180°C revealed that in the severely deformed samples, aging became so fast that the hardness curves continuously decreased due to overwhelming effects of structure restoration. On the contrary, aging at 130°C offers good opportunities for fully exploiting the precipitate hardening effects in the ultrafine-grained alloy.

Processing Techniques

Processing through the application of severe plastic deformation (SPD) provides a very attractive tool for the production of bulk ultrafine-grained materials. These materials typically have grain sizes in the submicrometer or nanometer ranges and they exhibit high strength at ambient temperature and, if the ultrafine grains are reasonably stable at elevated temperatures, they have a potential for use in superplastic forming operations. Several procedures are now available for applying SPD to metal samples but the most promising are Equal-Channel Angular Pressing (ECAP) and High-Pressure Torsion (HPT). This paper examines the basic principles of ECAP and HPT and describes some of the properties that may be achieved using these processing techniques.

The paper reports on the effect of severe plastic deformation on mechanical properties of an Al-4.57Mg-0.35Mn-0.2Sc-0.09Zr (in wt. pct.) alloy processed by equal channel angular pressing followed by cold rolling (CR). The sheets of the 5024 alloy with coarse grained (CG) structure exhibited a yield stress (YS) near 410 MPa and an ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of 480 MPa, while the YS and UTS of this material with ultrafine-grained (UFG) structure increased to 530 and 560 MPa, respectively. On the other hand, the elongation to failure decreased by a factor of 2 and 4 after CR and CR following ECAP, respectively. It was shown that dislocation strengthening attributed to extensive CR plays a major role in achieving high strength of this alloy. Besides these macroscopic characteristics, jerky flow caused by the Portevin-Le Chatelier (PLC) instability of plastic deformation was examined. The formation of UFG structure results in a transition from mixed type A+B to pure type B PLC serrations. No such effect on the serrations type was observed after CR.

Ultrafine Grained Materials

Processing through the application of severe plastic deformation (SPD) provides an opportunity for achieving very significant grain refinement in bulk metals. Since the occurrence of superplastic flow generally requires a grain size smaller than ~10 µm, it is reasonable to anticipate that materials processed by SPD will exhibit superplastic ductilities when pulled in tension at elevated temperatures. This paper summarizes the fundamental principles of SPD processing and describes recent results demonstrating the occurrence of exceptional superplastic flow in these ultrafine-grained materials.

The processing of bulk metals through the application of severe plastic deformation provides an opportunity for achieving exceptional grain refinement to the submicrometer or even the nanometer range. This paper examines the characteristics of metals processed by equal-channel angular pressing with special emphasis on the levels of ductility that may be attained. It is shown that the amount of ductility is dependent not only upon the composition of the material but also, and to a major extent, upon the testing temperature. Specifically, the ductilities are often low at ambient temperatures where the strength of the as-processed material is relatively high but, by contrast, exceptionally high superplastic ductilities may be achieved over short ranges of strain rate when testing at elevated temperatures.

It was shown that in ultrafine-grained nanostructured Cu processed by severe plastic deformation and subjected to cold rolling and annealing, the level and character of Young's modulus anisotropy is significantly different from values corresponding to cold rolled and annealed coarse-grained Cu. The crystallographic texture formation processes are investigated in these states in parallel. The comparative study of the elastic behaviour and crystallographic texture lets us draw conclusions concerning the leading role of not only developing crystallographic texture but a specific defect structure of grain boundaries as well in the formation of unusual elastic properties of ultrafine-grained materials processed by severe plastic deformation.
