| Abstract Scope |
Commercially pure titanium (Ti) is utilised in various automobile industries due to its low density and high corrosion resistance. The advancement in technology and increased design complexity requires high strength- ductility combination in lightweight structural components to improve fuel efficiency. This can be achieved by developing the ultra-fine grain (UFG) structure through a combination of severe plastic deformation (SPD) and conventional processing techniques. In this study, Ti is processed via a novel processing route nomenclature as multiaxial plane-strain forging followed by rolling at ambient temperature. Twin free microstructure with an average grain size of ~100 nm and the multi-component basal texture was obtained. The processed Ti consists highest strength-ductility combination reported in the literature. |
