Method for Preparing Ultrafine-Grained Metallic Foil.

摘要

Coarse-grained titanium and ultrafine-grained (UFG) titanium billets were processed into titanium foil cold rolling and intermediate annealing. The foil produced from the UFG titanium billet exhibits a homogeneous nanostructure. By contrast, foil produced by cold rolling the coarse-grained titanium billet exhibits a heterogeneous structure with both nanostructured and coarser-grained regions. The foil produced from UFG billets has higher strength, higher ductility, and exhibits uniform deformation over a larger strain range at room temperature than foil produced from coarse-grained billets.
