Abstract

The effects of solid solution temperature on the structures and properties of TC16 titanium alloy bars that made solid solution treatment in 780°C, 800°C, 850°C, 900°C, respectively, the processing time for 30min, then cooled in the air were studied. The results show that during solid solution treatment under 800°C, the alloy structures are the primary ɑ phase and the metastable β phase, while solid solution temperature rise to 800°C, the alloy structures begin to appear ɑ" martensite phase. With the increase of solid solution temperature, the alloy grain grow up somewhat, material tensile strength increases gradually, yield strength firstly decreases and then increases, elongation at break firstly increases and then decreases, percentage reduction of area at break decreases gradually. Solid solution state of TC16 titanium alloy bars are not suitable for cold heading forming, strengthening the titanium alloy must be subsequent artificial aging treatment.
