This work fabricated fully equiaxed, Widmanstätten, basketweave and bimodal microstructures to systematically investigate the influence of content of equiaxed α (αe) and configuration of α lamellas on the deformation mechanism and tensile properties of near-α titanium alloy. The bimodal microstructures (BMs) comprised of αeand parallel α lamellas (α colony) is denoted as BMC, while the BMs containing αeand basket-weave α lamellas (α basketweave) is denoted as BMB. With the decreasing content of αe, BMB has the higher increment of strength and lower reduction of elongation than BMC. Under the same content of αe, BMB has the higher strength and better elongation than BMC. Meanwhile, BMB with αecontent of 15% could achieve a good combination of high strength and good elongation. The deformation mechanisms of fully equiaxed microstructure (FEM), BMC and BMB were investigated by in-situ tensile tests and TEM characterization. It is found that prismatic slip is the dominant slip system initiated in the three microstructures, while the dislocation multiplication of prismatic slip dominates all the αegrains. The αecould well coordinate deformation to benefit the elongation whereas the long slip length in αegrains could fairly degrade the strength. The calculation of geometry compatibility indicates α basketweave could better restrain slip transfer than α colony, which leads to the higher strength of BMB and basketweave microstructure. Moreover, the absence of continuous αGBin BMB and basketweave microstructure could promote a better elongation.
