Recrystallization Characteristics of Ti-50.9at%Ni Alloy Processed by Equal Channel Angular Extrusion

Article Preview

Abstract:

The initial coarse grains of Ti-50.9at%Ni alloy were refined into submicron grains, small than 0.5 um in size, after eight passes Equal Channel Angular Extrusion (ECAE) at 500°C. Optical microscopy and high temperature DSC tests were applied to investigate recrystallization behavior. It is found that the recrystallization start (Rs) and recrystallization peak (Rp) temperatures of Ti-50.9at%Ni specimens processed by eight passes ECAE are lower than that of the samples processed by one pass ECAE. Ti-50.9at%Ni specimens processed by eight passes ECAE with submicron grains are characterized by higher stability and need less energy to finish recrystallization process.
