Effect of rolling temperature on microstructure and mechanical properties of Ti-6Al-3Nb-2Zr-1Mo plate

This paper describes the effect of rolling temperature on microstructure and mechanical properties of Ti-6Al-3Nb-2Zr-1Mo plate. According to the beta transus (T-beta) , three different rolling temperatures of T-beta+70 similar to 100 degrees C, T-beta+30 similar to 50 degrees C and T-beta-30 similar to 50 degrees C were selected. Microstructure and mechanical properties of the rolled plates were studied. The results show that the plate rolled at T-beta-30 similar to 50 degrees C possesses uniform bimodal structure and exhibits better combination mechanical properties.
