Abstract

The influence of various factors on the efficiency of microstructure refinement in two-phase titanium alloys with respect to a well-known Ti-6Al-4V alloy was discussed. The kinetics of microstructure evolution in titanium alloys with a lamellar type α/β microstructure during large plastic deformation depends mainly on temperature and strain rate, type of the initial microstructure, thickness of the α lamellae, path of deformation and chemical composition. Each parameter should be controlled to provide the most efficient microstructure refinement during conventional metalforming methods.
