摘要

Ultrafine-grained (UFG) pure Ti processed by equal-channel angular pressing was subjected to dynamic compression at a stain rate of similar to 4000 s(-1) over a wide temperature range. It is shown that the structure in longitudinal sections evolves from elongated shapes to polygons in dynamic testing at 93-473 K and to equiaxed grains at 673 K which grow to similar to 1.8 mu m. The deformation mechanisms of UFG pure Ti are discussed with reference to its crystallographic texture.
