Commercial pure Titanium (CP-Ti) was processed by cryo-rolling with a thickness reduction of 20% and 50% at a cryogenic temperature (T = –196°C). It was found that cryo-rolling to the total reduction of thickness 50% leads to form ultra-fine grains. The results showed that strength and hardness were enhanced by decreasing grain size. Both strength and hardness of the cryo-rolled CP-Ti were noticed higher than as-received material. The mechanical properties of the cryo-rolled 20% and 50% were significantly increased: the yield strength by 9% and 45%, and the ultimate tensile strength by 26% and 60%, respectively, compared to as-received CP-Ti. While the elongation was decreased by 38% and 78% compared with the as-received CP-Ti.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
