Abstract
A new modified low-cost titanium alloy, Ti-Al-X, was designed for petroleum drilling applications. The alloy ingots were prepared by combination of vacuum consumable electrode arc melting, forging/hot rolling, homogenization, and solid-solution/aging treatments. The hot deformation behavior of Ti-Al-X alloy was investigated by a thermal simulation machine Gleeble 1500 at temperature range of 850~1000°C with the strain rate range of 0.001 s-1~1s-1. The deformation resistance significantly decreases with the increase of deformation temperature and the strain rate. The alloy exhibits flow instability under the deformation conditions of strain rates about 0.001 s-1 and temperature above 1000°C, which should be avoided during hot working. In addition, the instability area enlarged in processing map with the increasing of true strain.
