Abstract
Isothermal compression of Ti-6Al-4V alloy without and with hydrogenation content of 0.27 wt.% was carried out on Gleeble-1500D thermal simulation machine at deformation temperature between 760 and 1000 °C and strain rate from 0.001 to 1 s−1. The experimental results show that hydrogenation can decrease the deformation temperature or increase the strain rate of Ti-6Al-4V alloy. The apparent activation energy was determined to be 667 kJ mol−1 for isothermal compression of the Ti-6Al-4V alloy without hydrogenation content of 0.27 wt.% in the α + β phase region (760-960 °C), and this value was about 655 and 199 kJ mol−1 for the alloy with 0.27 wt.% of hydrogenation content in the α + β phase region (760-840 °C) and β phase region (840-960 °C), respectively. Constitutive equation was developed for the high-temperature deformation of Ti-6Al-4V alloy both without and with hydrogenation content of 0.27 wt.%.
