Hot deformation experiments of as-cast 35CrMoV steel, with strain rates of 0.01 s−1 and 10 s−1, deformation temperatures of 850, 950, and 1050 °C, and an extreme deformation reaching 50%, were carried out using a Gleeble-3810 thermal simulator. Electrochemical corrosion experiments were conducted on the deformed specimens. The microstructure was observed by optical microscope (OM), and the corrosion morphology and corrosion products of the specimens were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy disperse spectroscopy (EDS), confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques. The results show that the grain size increased gradually with an increase in the deformation temperature at the same strain rate, whereas the corrosion resistance deteriorated. At the same deformation temperature, the grain size becomes smaller as the strain rate increases, which enhances the corrosion resistance. This is mainly attributed to the fine grains, which can form more grain boundaries, increase the grain boundary area, and accelerate the formation of the inner rust layer at the beginning of corrosion. Moreover, fine grains can also refine the rust particles and enhance the bonding strength between the inner rust layer and the matrix. The denseness and stability of the inner rust layer increases as the corrosion process progresses, thereby improving corrosion resistance.

The hot deformation behavior and microstructure of rolled Inconel 625 alloy have been studied from 930°C to 1180°C, and at strain rate from 10 s-1 to 80 s-1, respectively. The results indicate that, as deformation temperature rises, both peak flow stress (PFS) and recrystallization critical strain (RCS) decrease; as the strain rate increases, the PFS is enhanced, but the RCS drops. When the deformation temperature is within 1100°C and 1180°C, the grain size coarsens markedly with the temperature increasing. When the deformation temperature is lower than 1100°C,a higher strain rate is helpful for grain refinement. However, when the temperature is beyond 1100°C,the effect of strain rate on the grain size is reduced.

The effect of strain rate and deformation temperature on flow stress of TC18 titanium alloy was studied through heat simulating tests in 760~960 with temperature interval and the strain rate interval in 0.01~10s-1. Relationship model of flow stress versus strain was established and hot deformation mechanics of TC18 titanium alloy was analyzed. The results show that the flow stress reduces obviously as the deformation temperature increases or the strain rate decreases. Dynamic recovery occurs at high strain rate above phase transformation point, while dynamic recrystallization occurs at low strain rate as well as at the temperature below phase transformation point.

A self-designed Ti-35421 (Ti-3Al-5Mo-4Cr-2Zr-1Fe wt%) titanium alloy is a new type of low-cost high strength titanium alloy. In order to understand the hot deformation behavior of Ti-35421 alloy, isothermal compression tests were carried out under a deformation temperature range of 750–930 °C with a strain rate range of 0.01–10 s−1 in this study. Electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) was used to characterize the microstructure prior to and post hot deformation. The results show that the stress–strain curves have obvious yielding behavior at a high strain rate (>0.1 s−1). As the deformation temperature increases and the strain rate decreases, the α phase content gradually decreases in the α + β phase region. Meanwhile, spheroidization and precipitation of α phase are prone to occur in the α + β phase region. From the EBSD analysis, the volume fraction of recrystallized grains was very low, so dynamic recovery (DRV) is the dominant deformation mechanism of Ti-35421 alloy. In addition to DRV, Ti-35421 alloy is more likely to occur in continuous dynamic recrystallization (CDRX) than discontinuous dynamic recrystallization (DDRX).

The hot deformation behavior of U720Li was investigated by isothermal compression tests at temperature ranging from 1060-1180°C and strain rate from 0.001s-1 to 20s-1. The flow stress-strain curves and microstructures were investigated and a constitutive equation was established. It is found that flow stress is sensitive to stain rate and deformation temperature greatly. The higher stain rate resultes in a larger fluctuation in flow stress. The hot deformation activation energy is determined to be 552.8kJ/mol. Grain size increases with increasing temperature and decreases firstly and then increases with increasing strain rate. U720Li alloy should be deformed below the solve temperature of γ primary phase with lower strain rate in order to obtain the even and fine grain size.

The hot deformation behavior of an Al-0.92Mg-0.78Si-0.20Cu-0.60Zn alloy was studied by isothermal compression in the temperature range from 350 to 500 oC with strain rates of 0.01-10s-1 on Gleeble-1500 thermo-mechanical simulator. The microstructural evolution during hot deformation was investigated by electron back-scatter diffraction (EBSD). The results show that the strain rate and deformation temperature have significant influence on flow behavior, and the flow stress increases with increasing strain rate and decreasing deformation temperature. Processing map at the strain of 0.7 is obtained and exhibits three peak efficiency domains (380-420 oC at 0.01s-1, 480-500 oC at 0.01s-1 and 450-500 oC at 0.1-0.32s-1). According to the processing map and microstructure observation, the optimized processing condition of hot deformation for the alloy is at 450-500 oC and strain rate of 0.1-0.32s-1. The homogenized ingot is hot rolled at 480 oC with a strain rate of 0.1s-1 based on optimized deformation parameters. The fraction of high-angle grain boundary is 35.2%, which is in accord with microstructure after hot deformed at 500 oC with a strain rate of 0.1s-1.

Isothermal compression tests were conducted to investigate the effect of hot deformation parameters on flow behavior and microstructure of Ti-6Al-4V-0.2O alloy. The experimental results show that the strain rate and height reduction have little effect on the volume fraction of primary α at a deformation temperature of 860 ̊C. At a deformation temperature of 940 ̊C, the volume fraction of primary α at a high strain rate (10s-1) is about 10% less than that at low strain rates (0.01s-1~1s-1). It may be one of the reasons for the significantly discontinuous yielding phenomenon. Another reason is that the dislocation density decreased suddenly due to the dynamic recovery. With the increasing strain rate and the decreasing deformation temperature, the volume fraction of irregular secondary α increases and lamellar secondary α decreases. And with height reduction increasing, the irregular secondary α increases firstly and then tends to be steady because of dynamic recovery and recrystallization.

The hot deformation behavior and microstructure evolution of a DC cast hypereutectic Al-Si alloy was studied in the temperature range of 400-500 °C and strain rate range of 0.001-1 s-1. The results show that the as-cast microstructure of the alloy consists of polygonal primary Si particles and α-aluminum dendritic halos with Al-Si eutectics and intermetallic compounds segregated into the interdendritic regions. The flow stress of the alloy is a strong function of temperature and strain rate, and the peak stress is increased with the decrease of deformation temperature and the increase of strain rate. All the true stress-true stain curves in the experiments exhibit dynamic softening. The fracture frequency of primary Si particle is decreased with the increase of deformation temperature and the decrease of strain rate. The dynamic flow softening is mainly as a result of dynamic recrystallization.

The static recrystallization (SRX) behavior of a low carbon Nb–V–Ti microalloyed steel X70 was investigated by two-pass hot compression tests. The compression tests were carried out at deformation temperatures of 1000–1150 °C, strain rates of 0.01–5 s−1, pre-strains of 0.1–0.2 and interval times of 1–50 s. The effects of deformation parameters on SRX behavior were analyzed. The experimental results showed that deformation temperature, pre-strain and strain rate had significant influence on SRX fraction, while initial grain size had a smaller impact. The effects of deformation parameters on SRX microstructure were discussed, and the microstructure evolution process was analyzed. Higher deformation temperature, strain rate and pre-strain lead to larger SRX fraction. The kinetics and recrystallized grain size models for SRX of X70 pipeline steel were developed. Comparison between the predicted results and the experimental ones indicated that the established equations could give a reasonable description for SRX behavior of X70 pipeline steel.

The hot deformation behavior of an advanced nickel-based Haynes282 superalloy was systematically investigated employing isothermal compression tests in the sub-solvus and super-solvus temperature with various strain rates. The influence of deformation temperature and strain rate on the microstructure was studied by transmission electron microscope. The results reveal that the interaction between work hardening and dynamic softening did not reach equilibrium under lower deformation temperature and higher strain rate. The active energy of alloy is around 537.12 kJ/mol and its hot deformation constitutive relationship equation was expressed. According to the processing map and microstructure observations, two unsafe flow instability domains should be avoided. The optimum hot processing condition for homogeneous and fine dynamic recrystallization grains are obtained. TEM micrograph observations indicated that deformation temperature and strain rate affected recrystallization by affecting the evolution of dislocation substructures within the alloy. The nucleation and growth of DRX grains can be promoted by the relatively high deformation temperature and low strain rate. The main mechanism of dynamic recrystallization nucleation preferred to discontinuous dynamic recrystallization and the typical feature of discontinuous dynamic recrystallization showed grain boundary migration nucleation. The findings improve the understanding of hot deformation behavior and dislocation substructures evolution of the superalloy, which benefits the accurate control of microstructures of nickel-based superalloys, and tailors the properties of final components used in the land-based gas turbine.

The thermal deformation microstructure of continuous extrusion copper bus bar was observed and analyzed in the temperature range from 200°C to 700°C and at strain rate from 0.01s-1 to 10.0s-1 and at deformation amount from30% to 90% on Gleeble1500 test machine. The experiment results show that the higher the temperature, the lower the strain rate, the more dynamic recrystallization occurred. At the same strain rate, the copper bus bar changes from raw material of as-cast organization to recrystallization grain gradually as the deformation temperature and deformation degree increase, and the recrystallization grain size grows older with the rise of temperature. At the same deformation temperature, the temperature of recrystallization nucleation decreases while the strain rate increases. At low strain rate (0.01~1.0s-1), the dynamic recrystallization occurred at 500°C. While at high strain rate (10.0s-1), the recrystallization nucleation is advanced and it is already completed at 500°C. The Z parameters can be used to express the effect of deformation temperature and strain rate on the average grain size D, and the prediction model of the thermal deformation microstructure is obtained as follows: lnD=4.822-0.018lnZ
