[0034] This example embodiment provides a method for rolling titanium alloy bars, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the method may include the following steps:

[0035] Step S101: The titanium alloy billet is heated in a stepped manner to obtain the titanium alloy billet to be rolled.

[0036] Step S102: Perform a single-fire rolling process on the titanium alloy billet to obtain a titanium alloy square billet.

[0037] Step S103: After high-temperature coating treatment, titanium alloy billet is subjected to two-stage rolling to obtain titanium alloy bar.

[0038] It should be noted that this high-temperature coating process involves uniformly applying a high-temperature coating to the surface of the titanium alloy billet, followed by drying, heating, and heat preservation.

[0039] This disclosure proposes a rolling method for titanium alloy ingots. By subjecting the titanium alloy ingots to stepped heating, single-fire rolling, high-temperature coating, and double-fire rolling, batch stability of large-diameter and heavy titanium alloy ingots is achieved while reducing production costs.

[0040] The steps of the method described above in this example embodiment will now be explained in more detail.

[0041] Example 1:

[0042] The titanium alloy billet used in this embodiment of the present disclosure is a TA1 titanium alloy billet. TA1 titanium alloy is one of the most common titanium alloys, mainly composed of elements such as titanium, iron, oxygen, and carbon. Its chemical composition is shown in Table 1 below.

[0043] Table 1 Chemical composition of TA1 titanium alloy

[0044] element Mass percentage (%) Titanium 99%-99.52% iron 0.2%-0.25% oxygen element 0.1%-0.2% carbon element 0.05%-0.1% Nitrogen 0.02%-0.03% hydrogen element 0.01%-0.015% Other elements 0.1%-0.4%

[0045] As shown in Table 1, titanium is the main component of titanium alloys, with the highest content. Due to the properties of titanium, the synthesized TA1 titanium alloy possesses low density, high strength, corrosion resistance, and good biocompatibility. The addition of iron, oxygen, carbon, and nitrogen elements improves the strength and hardness of the titanium alloy and also increases the corrosion resistance of TA1 titanium alloy. The addition of hydrogen element improves the plasticity and toughness of TA1 titanium alloy, and also increases its corrosion resistance to some extent.

[0046] Other elements in TA1 titanium alloy include copper, silicon, aluminum, molybdenum, and zinc. The addition of these elements improves the mechanical properties, corrosion resistance, and machinability of TA1 titanium alloy. However, experiments have shown that adding too many of these other elements can actually decrease the performance of TA1 titanium alloy. Therefore, it is necessary to control the type and content of these other elements as needed.

[0047] Example 1:

[0048] This embodiment proposes a rolling method for titanium alloy bars, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the specific steps are as follows:

[0049] Step S101: First, the TA1 titanium alloy billet is placed in a bogie-type resistance furnace for stepped heating. After heating to 790°C, it is held for 110 minutes. Then, it is heated to 100°C above the phase transformation point and held for 500 minutes to obtain the TA1 titanium alloy billet to be rolled.

[0050] Titanium is difficult to heat due to its low thermal conductivity. Surface heating methods typically involve long heating times, and large cross-sectional temperature differences occur when heating large billets. Unlike copper, iron, and nickel-based alloys, whose thermal conductivity decreases with increasing temperature, titanium alloys exhibit increased thermal conductivity with temperature. To ensure smooth hot working and minimize the temperature drop of the doped metals during processing, especially reducing surface quenching of the billet, a stepped heating method is employed. Preheating the titanium alloy ingot is essential; otherwise, the temperature drop of the doped metals and surface quenching can prevent proper mold filling and may lead to surface cracks. When the temperature increases, the doped metals react strongly with air. Above 650°C, titanium reacts strongly with oxygen; above 700°C, titanium reacts with nitrogen, forming a deep surface layer saturated with these two gases. Holding the temperature for a certain time allows for complete reaction. Stepped heating effectively addresses the problems of low thermal conductivity and severe gas absorption at excessively high temperatures in titanium alloys during heating.

[0051] Step S102: The TA1 titanium alloy billet to be rolled is subjected to a single-pass rolling process, specifically, the TA1 titanium alloy billet to be rolled is subjected to unidirectional multi-pass rolling, and the total rolling deformation of the single-pass rolling is 80%. After air cooling, sawing, grinding and inspection, the TA1 titanium alloy square billet is obtained.

[0052] It should be noted that rolling deformation refers to the amount of plastic deformation that occurs in a material during the rolling process. During rolling, the material undergoes continuous pressing and stretching, resulting in changes in both volume and shape, usually expressed as a percentage. The magnitude of rolling deformation is related to rolling process parameters such as roll diameter, roll groove shape, rolling temperature, and rolling speed. By adjusting these parameters, the amount of rolling deformation can be controlled to achieve the desired material properties and shape. Since rolling deformation has a significant impact on material properties and quality, an appropriate amount of rolling deformation can improve the material's microstructure and mechanical properties, increasing its strength and plasticity; while excessive or insufficient rolling deformation may negatively affect material properties and even lead to defects such as cracks and deformation.

[0053] In this embodiment 1, to facilitate the rolling of TA1 titanium alloy ingots into rectangular billets, the total rolling deformation per pass is controlled at 80%, making it easier to shape into rectangular or square billets, thus facilitating the rolling pass. Generally, pure titanium has two allotropes under normal pressure: α-Ti below 882.5℃, with a close-packed hexagonal lattice and a lattice constant a = 2.951 × 10⁻⁶. -10 m, c / a = 1.587, slightly smaller than the axial ratio of 1.633 for a typical close-packed hexagonal lattice. Above 882.5℃, it is β-Ti, with a body-centered cubic lattice and a lattice constant a = 3.28 × 10⁻⁶. -10 The volume effect of the α-to-β phase transformation is small, approximately 0.17%. In one-fire rolling, the phase transformation temperature of titanium alloys is 890℃-930℃. When industrial pure titanium is rapidly cooled from the β phase region (>200℃ / s), a martensitic transformation occurs, yielding acicular α-phase. ’ Phase structure. At low cooling rates, martensite needles do not form due to strong stress relaxation. If quenched from the α+β region temperature, primary α phase and α... ’ Composition of different ratios of martensitic phase.

[0054] Step S103 involves subjecting the obtained titanium alloy billet to a high-temperature coating treatment. This high-temperature coating involves uniformly applying a high-temperature coating material to the surface of the TA1 titanium alloy billet, drying it, and then heating it in a bogie-type resistance furnace to 50°C above the phase transformation point and holding it at that temperature for 100 minutes. The high-temperature coating technology can significantly improve the surface cracking problem during the rolling process of titanium alloy billets, increasing the yield of titanium alloy bars by approximately 2%.

[0055] TA1 titanium alloy billets, after high-temperature coating, are subjected to two-stage rolling; then, after online straightening, air cooling, sawing, peeling, and grinding, TA1 titanium alloy bars are obtained. The diameter of the TA1 titanium alloy bars is 90 mm. The straightness of the online straightening is less than or equal to 5 mm / m.

[0056] In this Example 1, after a detailed understanding of the effects of thermal radiation cooling, breadth coefficient, plasticity, and deformation resistance on different grades of titanium and titanium alloy ingots, and considering factors such as the principle of plastic deformation, roll properties, bite friction coefficient, maximum bite angle, equipment capacity, and operator skill level, the rolling equipment selected for the two-heat rolling process was an improvement on the original 850-type two-roll reversible billet mill. A completely new 1350-type two-roll reversible billet mill was designed. This billet mill, due to the larger nominal diameter of the rolls, can achieve stable rolling of titanium and titanium alloy ingots with diameters of 760mm-920mm.

[0057] Furthermore, the 1350 type two-roll reversible billet mill and the 850 type two-roll reversible billet mill are used in combination, thereby realizing uninterrupted linkage rolling in the two-fire rolling. Therefore, the two-fire rolling in this embodiment 1 is an uninterrupted linkage bidirectional multi-pass rolling, and the total rolling deformation of the two-fire rolling is controlled at 80%.

[0058] like Figure 2 The diagram shown is a schematic microstructure of the TA1 titanium alloy rod prepared in Example 1. Figure 2 As can be seen, the microstructure during the rolling process is almost devoid of lamellar α-structure and is uniformly equiaxed, indicating that the TA1 titanium alloy bar prepared by the method proposed in this disclosure has a good degree of axialization.

[0059] Example 2

[0060] Step S101: First, the TA1 titanium alloy billet is placed in a bogie-type resistance furnace for stepped heating. After heating to 800°C, it is held for 120 minutes. Then, it is heated to 150°C above the phase transformation point and held for 550 minutes to obtain the TA1 titanium alloy billet to be rolled. The reasons for adopting stepped heating and the resulting technical effects have been discussed in Example 1.

[0061] Step S102: The TA1 titanium alloy billet to be rolled is subjected to a single-pass rolling process, specifically, the TA1 titanium alloy billet to be rolled is subjected to unidirectional multi-pass rolling, and the total rolling deformation of the single-pass rolling is 85%. After air cooling, sawing, grinding and inspection, the TA1 titanium alloy square billet is obtained.

[0062] It should be noted that rolling deformation refers to the amount of plastic deformation that occurs in a material during the rolling process. During rolling, the material undergoes continuous pressing and stretching, resulting in changes in both volume and shape, usually expressed as a percentage. The magnitude of rolling deformation is related to rolling process parameters such as roll diameter, roll groove shape, rolling temperature, and rolling speed. By adjusting these parameters, the amount of rolling deformation can be controlled to achieve the desired material properties and shape. Since rolling deformation has a significant impact on material properties and quality, an appropriate amount of rolling deformation can improve the material's microstructure and mechanical properties, increasing its strength and plasticity; while excessive or insufficient rolling deformation may negatively affect material properties and even lead to defects such as cracks and deformation.

[0063] In this embodiment 2, in order to facilitate the rolling of TA1 titanium alloy billet into rectangular billet, the rolling deformation is controlled at 85%, making it easier to shape into rectangular or square billet, which facilitates the rolling of the die.

[0064] Step S103 involves subjecting the obtained titanium alloy billet to a high-temperature coating treatment. This high-temperature coating involves uniformly applying a high-temperature coating material to the surface of the TA1 titanium alloy billet, drying it, and then heating it in a bogie-type resistance furnace to 120°C above the phase transformation point and holding it at that temperature for 150 minutes. The high-temperature coating technology can significantly improve the surface cracking problem during the rolling process of titanium alloy billets, increasing the yield of the bars by approximately 2%.

[0065] TA1 titanium alloy billets, after high-temperature coating, are subjected to two-stage rolling; then, after online straightening, air cooling, sawing, peeling, and grinding, TA1 titanium alloy bars are obtained. The diameter of the TA1 titanium alloy bars is 91 mm. The straightness of the online straightening is less than or equal to 5 mm / m.

[0066] In this embodiment 2, the 1350 type two-roll reversible billet mill and the 850 type two-roll reversible billet mill are used in combination to realize uninterrupted linkage rolling in the two-fire rolling. Therefore, the two-fire rolling in this embodiment 2 is an uninterrupted linkage bidirectional multi-pass rolling, and the total rolling deformation of the two-fire rolling is controlled at 85%.

[0067] like Figure 3 The diagram shown is a schematic microstructure of the TA1 titanium alloy rod obtained in Example 2. Figure 3 As can be seen, the microstructure exhibits no edge cracks or surface cracks during the rolling process, demonstrating good surface quality. The small amount of rod-shaped α-structure present in the microstructure is uniformly distributed equiaxed. This indicates that the TA1 titanium alloy rods prepared using the method proposed in this disclosure have a good degree of axialization.

[0068] Example 3

[0069] Step S101: First, the TA1 titanium alloy billet is placed in a bogie-type resistance furnace for stepped heating, heated to 810°C and held for 130 minutes; then, it is further heated to 200°C above the phase transformation point and held for 600 minutes to obtain the TA1 titanium alloy ingot to be rolled. The reasons for adopting stepped heating and the resulting technical effects have been discussed in Example 1.

[0070] Step S102: The TA1 titanium alloy billet to be rolled is subjected to a single-pass rolling process, specifically, the TA1 titanium alloy billet to be rolled is subjected to unidirectional multi-pass rolling, and the total rolling deformation of the single-pass rolling is 90%. After air cooling, sawing, grinding and inspection, the TA1 titanium alloy square billet is obtained.

[0071] It should be noted that rolling deformation refers to the amount of plastic deformation that occurs in a material during the rolling process. During rolling, the material undergoes continuous pressing and stretching, resulting in changes in both volume and shape, usually expressed as a percentage. The magnitude of rolling deformation is related to rolling process parameters such as roll diameter, roll groove shape, rolling temperature, and rolling speed. By adjusting these parameters, the amount of rolling deformation can be controlled to achieve the desired material properties and shape. Since rolling deformation has a significant impact on material properties and quality, an appropriate amount of rolling deformation can improve the material's microstructure and mechanical properties, increasing its strength and plasticity; while excessive or insufficient rolling deformation may negatively affect material properties and even lead to defects such as cracks and deformation.

[0072] In this embodiment 3, in order to facilitate the rolling of TA1 titanium alloy billet into rectangular billet, the total rolling deformation of the total number of passes is controlled at 90%, making it easier to shape into rectangular or square billets, which facilitates the rolling of the die.

[0073] Step S103 involves subjecting the obtained titanium alloy billet to a high-temperature coating treatment. This high-temperature coating involves uniformly applying a high-temperature coating material to the surface of the TA1 titanium alloy billet, followed by heating in a bogie-type resistance furnace to 200°C above the phase transformation point and holding at that temperature for 200 minutes. The high-temperature coating technology can significantly improve the surface cracking problem during the rolling process of titanium alloy billets, increasing the yield of the bars by approximately 2%.

[0074] TA1 titanium alloy billets, after high-temperature coating, are subjected to two-stage rolling; then, after online straightening, air cooling, sawing, peeling, and grinding, TA1 titanium alloy bars are obtained. The diameter of the TA1 titanium alloy bars is 92 mm. The straightness of the online straightening is less than or equal to 5 mm / m.

[0075] In this embodiment 3, the 1350 type two-roll reversible billet mill and the 850 type two-roll reversible billet mill are used in combination to realize uninterrupted linkage rolling in the two-fire rolling. Therefore, the two-fire rolling in this embodiment 2 is an uninterrupted linkage bidirectional multi-pass rolling, and the total rolling deformation of the two-fire rolling is controlled at 90%.

[0076] like Figure 4 The diagram shown is a schematic microstructure of the TA1 titanium alloy rod obtained in Example 3. Figure 4 As can be seen, the microstructure exhibits no edge cracks or surface cracks during the rolling process, demonstrating good surface quality. The small amount of rod-shaped α-structure present in the microstructure is uniformly distributed equiaxed. This indicates that the TA1 titanium alloy rods prepared using the method proposed in this disclosure have a good degree of axialization.

[0077] It should be noted that in the three embodiments, the rolling equipment used for the first-fire rolling is a Φ1350mm two-roll reversible billet mill.

[0078] It should be noted that although the steps of the method in this disclosure are described in a specific order in the accompanying drawings, this does not require or imply that these steps must be performed in that specific order, or that all the steps shown must be performed to achieve the desired result.
