Grain Size Effect on Mechanical Properties of Titanium Alloy

Article Preview

Abstract:

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of grain size on mechanical properties of commercially pure grade 2 (CP2) titanium bar with a diameter of 5 mm. The results reveal that the microstructure of β-phase forms when the annealing temperature exceeds 800oC. The formation of β-phase leads to reduce the ductility but increase hardness. The strength coefficient, yielding stress and hardness decrease with increasing of grain size when the microstructure of specimen is the α-phase.
