2. Superplastic forming process of sheet
According to the relationship between the tensile strength, elongation after fracture and m value of Ti-15V-3Cr-3Sn-3Al sheet and the deformation temperature, the recommended superplastic forming process can use the sheet in the state of cold rolling or solution treatment, and the forming temperature Choose 700~740℃ below the β transition temperature, and the strain rate can be in a wide range, not greater than 2.8 x 10^(-3) s^(-1). The superplastic formed parts should be furnace-cooled from the forming temperature to 500~540°C as soon as possible, kept for 2 hours, and continue to be furnace-cooled to below 200°C. When the strength of the parts is not high, it can also be directly cooled from the forming temperature to below 200°C.
