Abstract
In this work, the high temperature tensile creep test of 2 mm Ti60 alloy rolled sheet was carried out, and the creep behavior and microstructure evolution were studied. The initial microstructure of the 2 mm Ti60 alloy rolled sheet is mainly composed of primary α phase and secondary α phase, and there are many dislocations and dynamic recrystallization (DRX) inside the rolled sheet. According to Norton-Bailey law, the creep stress exponent at 600 °C is calculated to be 3.6, and creep activation energy at 200 MPa is calculated to be 286.4 kJ/mol. It implies that the creep mechanism of the rolled sheet includes dislocation slip and dislocation climb. The initial Ti60 alloy rolled sheet has the {0001}<10–10>α texture. Stretching along the RD makes the texture direction gradually change from B-type (<0001>//ND) to T-type (<0001>//TD). Whether it is the B-type texture or T-type texture, the (0001) plane of the α phase always exhibits a basal texture state parallel to the tensile stress direction, contributing a good tensile creep property of this alloy sheet.
