[0002] Ti15Mo alloy is a β-type titanium alloy with excellent biocompatibility, corrosion resistance, and high strength. It is widely used in medical devices, chemical industry, and aerospace. Traditional Ti15Mo alloy sheet has a contradiction between strength and plasticity. It has a certain degree of high strength but lacks the ability to meet the requirements of high plasticity. It is prone to cracking and breaking during repeated bending and use, limiting its durability and structural integrity in complex applications such as medical devices and chemical industry. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The first object of the present invention is to provide a method for preparing a near-β-state Ti15Mo titanium alloy plate. By performing multiple fire rolling at the phase transformation point and heat treatment near the phase transformation point, a near-β-state Ti15Mo titanium alloy plate with good strength characteristics and high plasticity is obtained, which solves the problem that existing Ti15Mo alloy plates have a certain high strength and are difficult to meet high plasticity requirements at the same time.

[0004] The second object of the present invention is to provide a near-β Ti15Mo titanium alloy plate prepared by the above method.

[0005] The first technical solution adopted by the present invention is a method for preparing a near-β state high-plasticity Ti15Mo titanium alloy plate, and the specific steps are as follows: Step 1: Selecting an α+β Ti15Mo slab that meets the requirements; Step 2: The selected α+β Ti15Mo slab is subjected to multiple heat rolling at the phase transition point to obtain a first finished slab with fine structure and straightness ≤3 mm / m; Step 3: heat treating the first finished slab at a temperature below the phase transition point to obtain a near-β Ti15Mo titanium alloy plate; Step 4: removing the surface oxide scale of the near-β-state Ti15Mo titanium alloy plate to obtain a second finished plate; Step 5: Cut and blank the second finished plate to obtain a near-β state high-plasticity Ti15Mo titanium alloy plate.

[0006] The present invention is also characterized in that: The α+β Ti15Mo slab selected in step 1 meets the following conditions: thickness of 10-40 mm, uniform structure, no cracks and folds visible to the naked eye on the surface after treatment, and no abnormal metallurgical defects during flaw detection.

[0007] The specific method of step 2 is: The selected α+β Ti15Mo slab is heated for the first time at the phase transition point to obtain a fully heated slab; The fully heated slab is then passed through a plate rolling mill for multiple heat rolling and deformation to obtain the target slab. Finally, the target slab is straightened by the rolling mill using the waste heat to obtain the first finished slab with uniform and fine structure and straightness ≤3mm / m.

[0008] The temperature of the first heating is 20 to 50°C below the phase transition point, and the heating time is 1.0 to 4.0 hours.

[0009] In multi-pass rolling, the total deformation of a single pass is ≤80%, the deformation of a single pass is ≤25%, and the deformation of the last pass of the finished product rolling is 5-10%.

[0010] The specific method of step 3 is: heating the first finished slab for a second time at a temperature below the phase transition point to obtain a fully heat-treated slab; The slab that has been fully heat treated is taken out of the furnace and water-cooled to obtain a near-β Ti15Mo titanium alloy plate with uniform and fine structure and performance that meets the requirements.

[0011] The temperature of the second heating is 5 to 40°C below the phase transition point temperature, and the time is 20 to 120 minutes. After the heat treatment, it is cooled by water, and the heat treatment water transfer time is ≤60 seconds.

[0012] In step 4, the near-β Ti15Mo titanium alloy plate is surface-treated by grinding, sanding or planing to obtain a second finished plate with a roughness Ra≤3.2 μm.

[0013] The second technical solution adopted by the present invention is that the near-β-state Ti15Mo titanium alloy plate is obtained by the above-mentioned preparation method, and the near-β-state Ti15Mo titanium alloy plate has a tensile strength Rm ≥ 690MPa, a yield strength ≥ 480MPa, an elongation A ≥ 25%, and an HV hardness ≥ 250.

[0014] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: The present invention discloses a method for preparing a near-β-state high-plasticity Ti15Mo titanium alloy sheet, which comprises sheet rolling, holding at a temperature near the phase transition point, water quenching, surface treatment, and cutting to ultimately produce a sheet with a tensile strength Rm ≥ 690 MPa, a yield strength ≥ 480 MPa, an elongation A ≥ 25%, and an HV hardness ≥ 250. The Ti15Mo titanium alloy sheet produced by the above steps exhibits both high strength and high plasticity, meeting the durability and structural integrity requirements of Ti15Mo sheets in complex applications such as medical devices and the chemical industry.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0016] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0017] The preparation method of the nearly β-state high-plasticity Ti15Mo titanium alloy plate of the present invention comprises the following specific steps: Step 1: Selecting an α+β Ti15Mo slab that meets the requirements; The selected α+β Ti15Mo slabs meet the following conditions: thickness of 10~40mm, uniform structure, no cracks and folds visible to the naked eye on the surface after treatment, and no abnormal metallurgical defects during flaw detection.

[0018] Specifically, in the present invention, the thickness of the slab is determined according to the specifications of the titanium alloy strip and the total processing rate of 80%. The slab is selected according to the thickness of the finished titanium alloy plate. The surface of the selected slab has no defects visible to the naked eye, and the grinding area needs to be smooth.

[0019] Step 2: The selected α+β Ti15Mo slab is subjected to multiple heat rolling at the phase transition point to obtain a first finished slab with fine structure and straightness ≤ 3 mm / m; the specific method is: The selected α+β Ti15Mo slab is first heated at the phase transition point. The first heating temperature is 20-50°C below the phase transition point temperature and the heating time is 1.0-4.0h to obtain a fully heated slab. The fully heated slab is then passed through a plate rolling mill for multi-pass rolling, and the target slab is obtained through multi-pass rolling deformation. The thickness of the target slab is 1.05 to 1.1 times the thickness of the rolled product slab. The total deformation of a single pass in the multi-pass rolling is ≤80%, the deformation of a single pass is ≤25%, and the deformation of the final pass of the finished product is 5 to 10%. Finally, the target slab is straightened by the rolling mill using the waste heat to obtain the first finished slab with uniform and fine structure and straightness ≤3mm / m.

[0020] Step 3: heat-treating the first finished slab at a temperature below the phase transition point to obtain a near-β Ti15Mo titanium alloy plate; the specific method is: The first finished slab is subjected to a second heating at a temperature below the phase transition point, wherein the second heating temperature is 5 to 40°C below the phase transition point and the time is 20 to 120 minutes to obtain a fully heat-treated slab; The slab that has been fully heat treated is taken out of the furnace and water-cooled. After the heat treatment, it is cooled by water.
