Title:
METHOD FOR PRODUCING A HIGH-STRENGTH AND HIGHLY DUCTILE TITANIUM ALLOY
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/078600
Kind Code:
A2
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method for producing a high-strength and highly ductile titanium alloy. The method for producing a high-strength and highly ductile titanium alloy comprises the following steps: providing a titanium alloy having a martensitic structure; and partially and dynamically spheroidizing a microstructure of said titanium alloy having a martensitic structure through heat and mechanical treatments. The method of the present invention produces a titanium alloy having a partially and dynamically spheroidized microstructure, and provides the titanium alloy with superior yield strength (YS) and uniform elongation (U.EL). The method of the present invention involves adjusting a rolling direction and deformation with respect to a layered microstructure, and thus enables the microstructure to have a micro-equiaxial structure and a layered structure coexisting therein. The method of the present invention can produce a titanium alloy having an improved product of yield strength and uniform elongation (YS×U.EL) as compared to conventional heat treatment methods.
