Abstract
In this paper, we report our recent studies on the effect of processing routes on the microstructure and mechanical properties of long ultrafine-grained Ti rods. CP Ti (Grade 2) rods were processed into long, ultrafine-grained (UFG) rods with a dimension of 6.5 mm in diameter and more than 1000 mm long), via equal-channel angular pressing followed by thermo-mechanical treatment. This paper presents the UFG microstructures in the processed rods and evolution of mechanical properties at various stages of the processing. It was established that the formation of homogeneous UFG structure with a grain size about 70 nm enhanced the ultimate strength by 2.5 times in comparison with the initial annealed state, while maintaining a good ductility of 12%.
