Microstructure & Texture Evolution during Uniaxial Compression of Cp-Titanium at Elevated Temperature

Abstract

Cp-titanium is widely used in different structural applications due to its high specific strength, and excellent corrosion resistance. The performance of this material depends on suitable microstructure and texture formed during different thermo-mechanical processing. In order to control the final properties of the products, it is thus, necessary to understand the microstructure and texture evolution during plastic deformation. Various literature studies confirmed that evolution of texture was different depending on the temperature of deformation and the strain path of the sample. Keep in mind, it has been studied how temperature effects on evolution of texture and microstructure during deformation at various temperature.
