The electron back scattering diffraction pattern (EBSD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were utilized to characterize the grain microstructures and dislocations. It is demonstrated that the hot rolling before cryoECAP produces more equiaxed grains with a smaller average size and a higher fraction of high angle boundaries (HABs) in the subsequent cryoECAPed 1050 aluminum alloy, thus accelerating the recovery and recrystallization of cryoECAPed alloy and produces more homogeneous microstructure during annealing. The magnetic field promotes the recovery and recrystallization and leads to much lower hardness at 150?250 °C, while it can suppress the abnormal grain growth and form more homogeneous grain size distributions annealed at 300?400 °C.展开更多

The result shows that untreated Ti 6Al 4V buttcover plate by M GTAW exhibits no superplasticity, while the same untreated plate by F PAW, shows good superplastic ability because of extremely fine acicular martensite microstructure of weld metal. To the buttcover plate by M GTAW, the microstructure of weld metal changed into streaky α structure which exhibits good superplasticity from the original β structure under the condition of the constant temperature of 940?℃ with the deformation degree of 45%, and changed into the fine equiaxed grain which possesses excellent superplastic ability under the condition of the constant temperature of 800?℃ with the deformation degree of 40%.展开更多

The results reveal that the flow stress of the alloy exhibits a continuous flow softening behavior at low temperatures of 320?390 °C, whereas it reaches steady state at high temperatures (≥460°C), which are influenced greatly by the Zener?Hollomon parameter (Z) in the hyperbolic sine with the hot deformation activation energy of 325.12 kJ/mol. Microstructure characterizations show that prominent dynamic recrystallization and coarsening of dynamic precipitation may be responsible for the continuous flow softening behavior. Due to deformation heating at high strain rates (≥1 s?1), dynamic recrystallization is more prominent in the specimen deformed at 530 °C and 10 s?1 than in the specimen deformed at 460 °C and 0.1 s?1 even though they have very close lnZ values.展开更多

Based on the true strain-stress data with temperature correction, constitutive models with a high accuracy were developed and processing maps were established. Strain inhomogeneity at different locations in the compressed sample is reduced by raising temperature, leading to a uniform distribution of α phases. For the temperature range of 800-840 ℃ with a strain rate of 10 s^-1, the transformed volume fraction of α phase increases and the average grain size of α phase decreases slightly with increasing the temperature, indicating co-existence of dynamic recovery and dynamic recrystallization. Flow localization and faint β grain boundaries are observed at the strain rate of 10 s^-1 in the temperature range of 860-900 ℃. The processing map analysis shows that hot working of Ti-5 Al-5 Mo-5 V-1 Cr-1 Fe alloy should be conducted with the strain rate lower than 0.01 s^-1 to extend its workability.展开更多
