Internal friction, Young’s modulus, and electrical resistivity of submicrocrystalline titanium

详细

The variation of the internal friction, Young’s modulus, and electrical resistivity of two grades of polycrystalline titanium (VT1-0 and Grade 4) in the area of low temperatures (100–300 K) as depending on the initial structure and subsequent severe plastic deformation converting the material into the submicrocrystalline structural state in relation to the grain size is studied. The maximum of the internal friction is detected in submicrocrystalline titanium, which is interpreted as a Bordoni peak. All the studied characteristics are sensitive indicators for a nonequilibrium state of the grain boundaries after the deformation. The effect of the initial structure of the metal on its properties after the severe deformation is revealed.
