Abstract
The dynamic recrystallization (DRX) behavior of a biomedical titanium Ti–13Nb–13Zr alloy has been investigated using the high temperature compression tests under wide range of strain rates (0.001–1/s) and temperatures 900–1050°C. A constitutive equation represented as a function of temperature, strain rate and true strain is developed and the hot deformation apparent activation energy is calculated about 534kJ/mol. By considering the exponential relationship between work-hardening rate (θ) and stress, a new mathematical model was proposed for predicting flow stress up to the critical strain during hot deformation. The mathematical model for predicting flow stress up to the critical strain exhibits better consistency and accuracy. The DRX kinetic equation of Ti–13Nb–13Zr alloy is described as XDRX=1−exp[−0.32(Ɛ−ƐcƐ*)2.3] . The DRX kinetic model was validated by microstructure observation. It was also found that the process of DRX was promoted by decreasing strain rate and increasing deformation temperature. Eventually, the continuous dynamic recrystallization (CDRX) was identified to be the DRX mechanism using transmission electron microscope (TEM).
