The experimental results show that the α-phase growth is controlled by solute diffusion during the heat treatment processes. Four different microstructures were established by combinations of several heat treatments, and Ti-10V-2Fe-3Al alloy shows excellent formability both above and below the β transus temperature. The alloy possesses low deformation resistance and active restoration mechanism during the deformation. A constitutive equation describing the hot deformation behavior of Ti-10V-2Fe-3Al alloy was obtained. Higher fl ow stress was observed for the acicular morphology of α phase in microstructures with large aspect ratios as compared with that of small aspect ratios. Due to the dynamic recovery in soft β phase, and the dynamic recrystallization and breakage of acicular α-phase, fl ow softening occurred signifi cantly during deformation. Dynamic recrystallization also occurred especially in the severely deformed regions of forged parts.展开更多
The high-temperature deformation behavior of a beta Ti-3.0 Al-3.5 Cr-2.0 Fe-0.1 B alloy was investigated by a Gleeble-1500 D thermal simulator.

The height reduction was 50%, corresponding to a true strain of 0.693. The strain rate ranging from 0.01 to 10.00 s^-1 and the deformation temperature ranging from 800 to 950 ℃ were considered.The flow stress and the apparent activation energy for deformation, along with the constitutive equation, were used to analyze the behavior of the Ti-3.0 Al-3.5 Cr-2.0 Fe-0.1 B alloy. The processing map was established. The effect of strain rate on the microstructure at 850 ℃ was evaluated.The flow stress-strain curves indicated that the peak flow stresses increased along with an increase in the strain rate and decreased as the deformation temperature increased.Based on the true stress-true strain curves, the constitutive equation was established and followed as the ε= 6.58×10-（10）[sinh（0.0113σ）]-（3.44）exp（-245481.3/RT）. The processing map exhibited the ＂unsafe＂ region at the strain rate of10 s^-1 and the temperature of 850 ℃,and the rest region was ＂safe＂. The deformation microstructure demonstrated that both dynamic recovery（DRV） and dynamic recrystallization（DRX） existed during deformation. At the lower strain rate of 0.01 s^-1, the main deformation mechanism was the DRV, and the DRX was the dominant deformation mechanism at the higher strain rate of 1.00 s^-1.展开更多
