Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To fabricate pure titanium (Ti) sintered materials with high strength and excellent ductility by using hydrogen element, which is one of the ubiquitous elements, the following processes were investigated; [1] direct use of TiH2 powder as starting materials, [2] in-process microstructures control via phase transformation by hydrogen atoms (β-phase stabilizer), [3] strengthening effect by α-Ti grains refinement and hybrid texture formation, and improvement ductility by deformation (tensile/compression) twins control using TiH2 needle-like compounds. For example, Ti-0.33 wt.%H sintered material showed a good balance between strength and ductility such as 0.2%YS of 990MPa, UTS of 1158 MPa and 23.9% elongation at room temperature.
