Abstract

The TNM alloy with full lamellar microstructure and extremely less content of βo/β phase was prepared by powder hot isostatic pressing technology, and the lamellar evolution during hot compressions at temperature of 1200 ℃ and strain rate of 0.01 s−1 were studied in depth. The results show that massive lamellar colonies kink and bend at the initial stage of compression, called geometric softening, leading to the appearance of shaper stress peak in flow curve. The kinked and bent lamellar colonies result from the continuous rotation of lamellae with the lattice rotation axis of 112̅0α//11̅0γ, which gradually transfer the angle of the interfaces of lamellar with respect to the loading axis from 0° to 45°. And then recrystallized grains form at kink bands and the boundaries of deformed lamellar colonies, which is responsible for the slow softening kinetics and the persistent softening stage. The absence of β phase transfers the softening mechanism at the initial deformation stage and weakens the effect of softening at the strain of 0.9.
