Abstract

Abstract: A Ti-32Ta alloy was prepared by vacuum melting and cold rolling. After solution treatment at 600, 700 and 800 ℃, respectively, the microstructure and damping properties of the tested alloy were characterized by means of OM, XRD, SEM, DSC thermal analyzer and DMA dynamic mechanics analyzer. The effect of solution treatment temperature on microstructure and damping properties of the Ti-32Ta alloy was studied. The results show that the recrystallization temperature of the tested alloy is between 700 ℃ and 800 ℃, and the microstructure of the specimen treated at 600 ℃ is non-recrystallized, while the specimens treated at 700 ℃ and 800 ℃ have recrystallized equiaxed grains which increased with the temperature increasing. The phase transition point of the tested alloy increases after solid solution treatment. Compared with the phase transition point of 440 K (167 ℃) for the untreated Ti-32Ta alloy, the phase transition point of specimens treated at 600 ℃ and 700 ℃ increases by 39 ℃, and that of specimens treated at 800 ℃ increases by 18 ℃. The damping properties of the Ti-32Ta alloy are not affected by the solution treatment temperature, but are greatly affected by the working temperature. When the working temperature rises above 150 ℃, the damping properties of the tested alloy increase rapidly with the increase of temperature.
