摘　　要：In order to reveal the differences caused by forging and rolling process for titanium ingots, hot compression behavior, mechanical properties and the microstructures of forged billets and rolled ones were investigated in detail using Gleeble-1500 thermal mechanical simulator, universal testing machine and optical microscope （OM）. The compression deformation experimental data of commercially pure titanium （CP-Ti） were mapped to be a T vs lg diagram in which data fall into three distinct regions, i.e., three-stage work hardening, two-stage work hardening and flow softening, which can be separated by border lines at 17.5 and 15.4 for lg Z, where Z represents the Zener-Hollomon parameter. The deformation twin is found to have higher Z-value corresponding to the work hardening region. The differences in microstructures and mechanical properties for two kinds of billets indicate that forged billet consists of deformation twins and some twin intersections, and many twins cross the grain boundaries. However, nearly no twins can be seen in the microstructure of billet formed by rolling under optical microscope （OM）, but there are equiaxed and platelike grains. Tensile tests and Vickers hardness test indicate that yield strength, tensile strength and microhardness of the samples after forging are higher than those after rolling.为了研究锻造和轧制这两种开坯工艺对纯钛板坯组织和性能的影响,在Gleeble-1500热模拟实验机上进行热压缩实验,通过单向拉伸实验测试锻造和轧制后板料的力学性能,在光学显微镜下观察采用两种开坯工艺加工后的显微组织。以变形温度(T)和应变速率的对数(lg)为坐标作图,根据lgZ值的斜率,即15.4和17.5,能够将纯钛塑性变形分成3个区,即三阶段加工硬化区、二阶段加工硬化区和流动软化区。在较高Z值的两种加工硬化区会有变形孪晶出现。两种开坯生产工艺对纯钛板坯组织和性能的影响主要体现在:锻坯微观组织出现变形孪晶,即晶内出现交叉孪晶,还有一些孪晶横穿晶界。然而,在轧坯中没有发现孪晶,其微观结构主要为等轴晶和板条状晶粒。拉伸实验和显微硬度测试结果显示,锻坯的屈服和抗拉强度及显微硬度均高于轧坯的。
