Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Metallurgy
  • Mechanical Engineering

Background:

  • Grade 2 titanium exhibits microstructural anisotropy and property variations after hydrostatic extrusion (HE).
  • Severe plastic deformation (SPD) techniques like ECAP and HE are crucial for refining titanium's microstructure.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate a combined ECAP + HE process for grade 2 titanium.
  • To mitigate microstructural anisotropy and improve mechanical properties compared to HE alone.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing severe plastic deformation techniques: equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP) and hydrostatic extrusion (HE).
  • Comparing two plastic deformation routes: HE and sequential ECAP + HE.
  • Analyzing microstructure via Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and Scanning Electron Microscopy with Electron Backscatter Diffraction (SEM/EBSD).

Main Results:

  • Both HE and ECAP + HE routes achieved significant microstructure refinement in titanium.
  • The ECAP + HE strategy effectively reduced microstructural anisotropy.
  • A substantial increase in Ultimate Tensile Strength (UTS) by ~1000 MPa, Yield Strength (YS) by ~945 MPa, and ductility (E) by ~25% was observed.

Conclusions:

  • Sequential ECAP + HE is an effective strategy for enhancing grade 2 titanium.
  • This combined approach significantly improves mechanical properties and reduces anisotropy.
  • The findings offer a pathway for advanced titanium processing for demanding applications.
