This invention relates to a method for preparing ultra-high
hardness titanium alloy plates, specifically relating to the field of
titanium and
titanium alloy materials technology. The method includes preparing an
ingot and determining the β transformation temperature T. β The process includes high-temperature homogenization, upsetting and drawing deformation of the billet, three-stage upsetting and drawing in the single-phase region, three-stage upsetting and drawing in the two-phase region, slab shaping, hot rolling, and solution-aging treatment. The
chemical composition of the
titanium alloy, by weight percentage, is: Al: 3.0%-6.0%, V: 0.5%-5.0%, Cu: 2.0%-6.0%, Si: 2.0%-6.0%, Zr: 2.0%-10.0%, Sn: 0%-2.0%, Nb: 1.0%-3.0%, Mo: 0.5%-3.0%, Fe: 0.5%-2.0%, with the balance being Ti. This invention achieves a Rockwell
hardness of 49-54 HRC by synergistically combining α-phase stabilizing elements with β-phase stabilizing elements, combined with the nanoscale precipitates formed by Cu and Si elements during aging. This method has a wide solution-aging temperature window, good process stability, and the resulting
sheet material has both good
hot working plasticity and
thin sheet forming ability, making it suitable for wear-resistant structural parts,
industrial tool substrates, and mold plates.
