description | The paper analyzes the microstructure and mechanical properties of Ti<sub>49.8</sub>Ni<sub>50.2</sub> alloy (at.%) under uniaxial tension at room temperature after isothermal <i>abc</i> pressing to true strains <i>e</i> = 0.29 − 8.44 at <i>T</i> = 723 K. The analysis shows that as the true strain <i>e</i> is increased, the grain–subgrain structure of the alloy is gradually refined. This leads to an increase in its yield stress σ<sub>y</sub> and strain hardening coefficient θ = <i>d</i>σ/<i>d</i>ε at linear stage III of its tensile stress–strain curve according to the Hall–Petch relation. However, the ultimate tensile strength remains invariant to such refinement. The possible mechanism is proposed to explain why the ultimate tensile strength can remain invariant to the average grains size (<i>d<sub>av</sub></i>). It is assumed that the sharp increase of the ultimate tensile strength σ<sub>UTS</sub> begins when (<i>d<sub>av</sub></i>) is less than the critical average grain size (<i>d<sub>av</sub></i>)<sub>cr</sub>. In our opinion, for the investigated alloy (<i>d<sub>av</sub></i>)<sub>cr</sub> ≈ 0.5 µm. In our study, the attained average grain size is larger the critical one. The main idea of the mechanism is next. In alloys with an average grain size (<i>d<sub>av</sub></i>) less than the critical one, a higher external stress is required for the nucleation and propagation of the main crack. |
