This project will explore a novel semi-solid sintering technology (consisting of two procedures coupling spark plasma sintering and semi-solid processing) for fabricating bimodal structural (including deformation twins) titanium alloys strengthened and toughened by the coexisting of nano-sized or ultra-fine grains and micron-sized grains. Composition design of bimodal structural titanium alloy with high strength and ductility, fabrication of glassy powder and its crystallization mechanism, densification mechanism of glassy powder and related mechanism of its microstructure evolution and its effect on mechanical properties during sintering, are chosen as core research contents. To reveal formation mechanism of bimodal structural titanium alloy and its strengthening and toughening mechanism, and further clarify effect of alloy composition and fabrication parametere on microstructure and mechanical property of bimodal structural titanium alloy, this project will significantly focus on effect of fabrication parametere, such as pressure, pulsed electron current, and holding time, especially pressure condition, on grain size, interface microstructure and deformation twins of bimodal structural grains, and thus on liquid phase in semi-solid state and its solidification mechanism, on solid phase in semi-solid state and formation mechanism of deformation twins, especially on atomic diffusion mechanism on liquid-solid interface. It is expected that this study will supply theory base for composition design of high-strength and ductility bimodal structural titanium alloy with three crystalline phases, among which some two phases can react preferentially in the eutectic transformation at elevated approximate temperature range and thus a semi-solid state containing a liquid phase and remaining solid phase would emerge spontaneously, optimization of fabrication technology, and precise controlling of microstructure and property. Moreover, this study will provide a new preparation route of titanium alloy with high strength and ductility.
