The subject of this proposal is the achievement of ultrafine grained materials by the application of severe plastic deformation (SPD). There are several techniques for applying high levels of deformation in order to reduce drastically the grain size of metals, below 1 micron, and thus improve the mechanical strength. Among these techniques, the most commonly employed are Equal-channel an…
Commercially pure Ti and the Ti6Al4V alloy have been used as implant materials because of their excellent propertied in that context. However, the former material has low strength when compared to the alloy, which in its turn contains two potentially cytotoxic elements, that is, Al and V. On the other hand, it has been demonstrated that severe plastic deformation or SPD causes a drastic i…
Equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) is the name given to a deformation process able to produce very fine grain size in metallic alloys. Its central characteristic is the ability to produce severe plastic deformation, thus providing a very high thermodynamic potential for processes such as recovery and recrystallization. Deformation levels are very high, reaching 10 or more, and can be o…
Severe Plastic Deformation Processes have been applied to pure Ti and Titanium alloys, especially when the final use of these materials is in orthopedical implants. The objective is to upgrade the mechanical properties of this material, in such a way as to approach some properties of the Ti-6Al-4V alloy. Severe Plastic Deformation of Ti at room temperature can be extremely advantageous, s…
