Research on Deformation Mechanism of High-Performance TC4 Alloy by near net shape manufacturing

Abstract

Abstract In this paper, we prepared titanium alloy through near-net forming green manufacturing, and then we quantitatively deformed the alloy and finally analyzed the deformation and fracture mechanism of the alloy. The result indicates that the deformation mechanism of those containing α + β lamellar structures is different from that of traditional structures. Especially, the lamellar structure can absorb the deformation energy of the alloy, thus improving the comprehensive properties of the alloy, of which the α phase mainly contributes to the plasticity of the alloy, while the β phase mainly contributes to the strength of the alloy. The two-phase combination will improve the mechanical properties of the alloy, which is completely different from the traditional strengthening mechanism of the basket structure and Widmanstatten structure.
