Dynamic recrystallization behavior of burn resistant titanium alloy Ti-25V-15Cr-0.2Si

Dynamic recrystallization (DRX) behavior in β phase region for the burn resistant titanium alloy Ti?25V?15Cr?0.2Si was investigated with a compression test in the temperature range of 950?1100 °C and the strain rate of 0.001?1 s?1. The results show that deformation mechanism of this alloy in hot deformation is dominated by DRX, and new grains of DRX are evolved by bulging nucleation mechanism as a predominant mechanism. DRX occurs more easily with the decrease of strain rate and the increase of deformation temperature. Grain refinement is achieved due to DRX during the hot deformation at strain rate range of 0.01?0.1 s?1 and temperature range of 950?1050 °C. DRX grain coarsening is observed for the alloy deformed at the higher temperatures of 1100 °C and the lower strain rates of 0.001 s?1. Finally, in order to determine the recrystallized fraction and DRX grain size under different deformation conditions, the prediction models of recrystallization kinetics and recrystallized grain sizes were established.

High Tem perature Defor mation Mechanism of Ti-40 Burn Resistant Titaniu m Alloy As-annealing

Ti 40 alloy is a single β phase burn resistant titanium alloy. Its high temperature deformation mechanism and stress strain ( σ ε ) curves were studied by Gleeble 1500 thermal simulator. The results suggest that there are a bit abrupt flow stress drops followed by steady state in Ti 40 alloy as annealing. The magnitude of the flow stress drop increases with strain rate and decreases with temperature. Its deformation activation energies are 174 kJ/mol for 650～850℃ and 276.7 kJ/mol for 950～1000℃, which are close to or bigger than the values for self and solute lattice diffusion in pure β titanium, thereby, the deformation mechanism at temperature range is controlled by lattice diffusion for 650～850℃, or mainly controlled by dynamic recrystallization for 950～1000℃.

Burn-resistant behavior and mechanism of Ti14 alloy

The direct-current simulation burning method was used to investigate the burn-resistant behavior of Ti14 titanium alloy.The results show that Ti14 alloy exhibits a better burn resistance than TC4 alloy（Ti-6A1-4V）.Cu is observed to preferentially migrate to the surface of Ti14 alloy during the burning reaction,and the burned product contains Cu,Cu2O,and TiO2.An oxide layer mainly comprising loose TiO2 is observed beneath the burned product.Meanwhile,Ti2Cu precipitates at grain boundaries near the interface of the oxide layer,preventing the contact between O2 and Ti and forming a rapid diffusion layer near the matrix interface.Consequently,a multiple-layer structure with a Cu-enriched layer（burned product）/Cu-lean layer（oxide layer）/Cu-enriched layer（rapid diffusion layer） configuration is formed in the burn heat-affected zone of Ti14 alloy;this multiple-layer structure is beneficial for preventing O2 diffusion.Furthermore,although A1 can migrate to form A12O3 on the surface of TC4 alloy,the burn-resistant ability of TC4 is unimproved because the Al2O3 is discontinuous and not present in sufficient quantity.
