等轴组织α-β钛合金热变形微观组织的表征(英文)

研究等轴组织TC11(Ti-6.5Al-3.5Mo-1.5Zr-0.3Si)合金在两相区980～800℃温度范围和应变速率0.001s-1,0.01s-1,0.1s-1条件下的热变形行为和微观组织演变。分析热力模拟参数对应力—应变曲线和微观组织演变的影响。并采用电子背散射衍射(EBSD)技术测试表征变形组织的晶界特征。研究结果表明:在980℃变形时,β相是主要变形相,发生了不连续动态再结晶;同时,α相经历了变形促进下的聚集粗化(低应变速率)和溶解(高应变速率)的过程,即α相含量和晶粒尺寸随着应变速率的加快而明显减小。在950～900℃,0.001s-1应变速率的条件下发生超塑性变形时,变形主要集中在软的β相,以及相界和晶界处。在850℃时,α相是主变形相,变形微观组织的演变机理是α相的连续动态再结晶,β相起晶界协调变形的作用。

Characterization of hot deformation microstructures of alpha-beta titanium alloy with equiaxed structure

Hot deformation behavior and microstructure evolution of TC11(Ti-6.5Al-3.5Mo-1.5Zr-0.3Si) alloy with equiaxed structure were investigated in the two-phase field at temperatures in the range of 980-800 ℃ and at strain rates of 0.001 s-1,0.01 s-1,0.1 s-1.Effects of thermo-mechanical parameters on both of the stress—strain curves and microstructure evolution were analyzed.Grain boundary characteristics of deformation microstructures were tested by electron backscattered diffraction(EBSD).The results reveal that β-phase dominates the deformation and presents discontinuous dynamic recrystallization at 980 ℃;meanwhile,α-phase coarsens at lower strain rates and dissolves at higher strain rates,and α-phase volume fraction and grain size decrease with increasing strain rate.Super-plastic deformation occurs at 950-900 ℃ and strain rate of 0.001 s-1.And the deformation is dominated by soft β-phase,phase interfaces and grain boundaries.Microstructural mechanism operated at 850 ℃ is continuous dynamic recrystallization of α-phase that dominates the deformation,and β-phase deforms to match the deformation of α-phase.
