Abstract

The warm deformation behavior of a β-type Ti alloys, composing of Ti–27.96Nb–11.97Ta–5.02Zr %wt, (so called TNTZ alloy), has been investigated in the present work in a warm deformation temperature. A variety of deformation features are characterized in the material microstructure after applied warm deformation scheme. The XRD analysis confirms an enhancement in martensite volume fraction. The electron back scatter diffractometry (EBSD) elucidates that the martensite has been mainly formed by laterally at the vicinity of different types of deformation bands. Both the well-known twining systems in TNTZ series have been occurred during deformation. The micro-shear bands, which are defined as highly concentrated plastic strain regions, are characterized in the deformed microstructure. The micro-shear bands are severely formed in the regions, which accommodate the most amount of applied strain.
