Overview

Observational analysis reveals microstructure changes in Ti-15%Nb-12%Zr alloy under extreme plastic deformation, suggesting unique mechanisms.

Key Points

  • The microstructure of the Ti-15%Nb-12%Zr alloy transformed significantly during plastic deformation up to 20,800% strain.
  • Dislocation density increased dramatically to 600-700 × 10^14 m^-2 when subjected to high-pressure torsion treatment.
  • The secondary phase fraction grew with strain, increasing to 22% in heat-treated samples under compression.
  • Despite significant changes in microstructure, the hardness increase remained limited to only 10-30%.
