Microstructural control of titanium base materials through unique thermomechanical treatment
deformed structure, elemental segregation, texture, layered structure, anisotropy
Overview
Mechanical properties such as tensile strength, ductility and fatigue strength are strongly affected by chemical composition and microstructure. There are a lot of research efforts about microstructural control through thermomechanical processing (forging, rolling and heat treatment). We are focusing on new thermomechanical processing utilizing deformation twins and elemental segregation.
Novelty and originality
● New aspect of thermomechanical treatment using deformation twins and elemental segregation
● Highly controlled thermomechanical treatment collaborate with Materials Melting and Manufacturing Unit of NIMS
● Development of anisotropic materials such as layered structure
Details
(Upper) This figure shows the cross section of bar rolled Ti-12Mo (mass%) alloy. Due to the sluggish diffusion of Mo, swirly-like segregation band of Mo (VGS or Van Gogh’s Sky structure) occurs. After aging treatment, heterogeneous precipitation of ω phase (hard second phase) aligned with Mo segregation makes local hardness variation, which enhances the room temperature tensile elongation values.

(Lower) Light cold rolled and aged Ti-12Mo (mass%) alloy exhibits Mille-Feuille-Like α/β layered structure. β single phase Ti-12Mo alloy sheets (solution treated) are 5% cold rolled. After cold rolling, layered deformation twins are introduced. Following aging heat treatment enhances precipitation and growth of α phase at the twin boundary and makes α/β layered structure. Compression of this type of layered structure introduces unique kink structure (bended structure), which has possibility to enhance mechanical properties.
