The preparation method of the A1-grade nondestructive inspection high-
impact-
toughness TC4
titanium alloy large-size bar comprises the steps that a secondary finished product cast
ingot is subjected to a multi-heating-number high-temperature single-phase beta-region large-deformation
forging process in the cogging stage, and as-cast grains are fully crushed and refined in the
modes of axial upsetting, lateral upsetting,
diagonal upsetting and the like; then, high-low-high-low repeated
forging is conducted at the temperature above and below the phase transformation point, grain homogenization is achieved through high-temperature
dynamic recrystallization, an original
grain boundary is eliminated, and deformation dead zones of a
corner angle area are effectively reduced in combination with multi-heating-number
diagonal drawing-out
forging; and finally, multi-heating-number forging is conducted in the two-phase region, a heat treatment process is combined, the
microstructure form is further optimized, and a lamellar alpha structure is controlled to guarantee the low-temperature
impact performance. According to the method, the structure uniformity of the TC4
alloy bar can be remarkably improved, the A1-level
nondestructive testing requirement is met, and the method has excellent axial and chordwise mechanical properties and is suitable for ocean equipment and other high-end application fields with strict requirements for the comprehensive performance of materials.
