Abstract

This report describes a study of the regularities in the kinetics of microstructure evolution and recrystallization processes in the Ti5.7Al3.8Mo1.2Zr1.3Sn alloy (Russian analogue VT8M-1) during processing by equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP). To produce a duplex (globular-lamellar) structure, the billets were subjected to preliminary heat treatment, including water-quenching from a temperature below the β-transus followed by annealing at 700ºС. For the ECAP temperature selection, the deformation behavior of the alloy with a duplex structure was investigated under upsetting in the temperature range of 650-800ºС. The evolution of the globular and lamellar fractions was examined during ECAP processing, and an emphasis was placed on the role of phase transformations, dynamic recrystallization and spheroidization of the α-phase which is realized with increasing accumulated strain when processing by ECAP. It is demonstrated that after 6 ECAP passes an equiaxed ultrafine-grained structure is formed with a mean α-phase grain/subgrain size of ~0.6 µm. The investigation includes an examination of the effect of microstructure on the mechanical properties of the alloy.
