The authors previously used the accumulative high-pressure torsion (ACC HPT) method for the first time on steel 316, β-Ti alloy, and bulk metallic glass vit105. On low-alloyed alloys, in particular, the zirconium alloy Zr-1%Nb, the new method was not used. This alloy has a tendency to α → ω phase transformations at using simple HPT. When using ACC HPT, the α → ω transformation can be influenced to a greater extent. This article studies the sliding effect and accumulation of shear strain in Zr-1%Nb alloy at various stages of high-pressure torsion (HPT). The degree of shear deformation at different stages of HPT was estimated. The influence of various high-pressure torsion conditions on the micro-hardness and phase composition by X-ray diffraction (XRD) of Zr-1%Nb was analyzed. It is shown that at high-pressure torsion revolutions of n = 2, anvils and the specimen significantly slip, which is a result of material strengthening. It was found that despite sliding, regular high-pressure torsion resulted in the high strengthening of Zr-1%Nb alloy (micro-hardness more than doubled), and after high-pressure torsion n = 10, up to 97% of the high-pressure ω-phase was formed in it (as in papers of other researchers). Accumulative high-pressure torsion deformation leads to the strongest transformation of the Zr-1%Nb structure and Hv and, therefore, to a higher real strain of the material due to composition by upsetting and torsion in strain cycles.

Abstract A new efficient method was used to find that in the case of high-pressure torsion of commercially pure titanium, accumulation of shear strain in Ti does not occur due to slippage of anvils. Despite this, micro-hardness increases as the number of turns n increases, and Ti structure is refined more intensively. High-pressure torsion is accompanied by a high-pressure ω-phase formation. However, the content of ω-phase changes non-monotonously with an increase in the number of turns. First, while number of turns is less than n=5, the ω-phase content reaches 50%. Upon further deformation, the ω-phase content decreases to 15% for n=20. A new accumulative high-pressure torsion method is applied to commercially pure titanium for the first time. Accumulative high-pressure torsion leads to the strongest transformation of the structure and an increase in hardness, since stronger real deformation occurs due to composition of compression and torsion strain cycles.

Nanostructured bulk NiAl materials were prepared at high pressure and temperature (0–5.0 GPa and 600–1500 °C, respectively). The sintered samples were characterized by x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope, density, and indentation hardness measurements. The results show that NiAl nanoparticles may have a compressed surface shell, which may be the reason why NiAl nanomaterials were difficult to densify sintering using conventional methods and why high-pressure sintering was an effective approach. We also observed that B2-structured NiAl could undergo a temperature-dependent phase transition and could be transformed into Al0.9Ni4.22 below 1000 °C for the first time. It is interesting to note that Vickers hardness decreased as grain size decreased below ∼30 nm, indicating that the inverse Hall-Petch effect may be observed in nano-polycrystalline NiAl (n-NiAl) samples. Moreover, a tentative interpretation was developed for high-pressure nanosintering, based on the shell-core model of nanoparticles.

X-ray investigations revealed that the increase in the applied pressure during high pressure torsion (HPT) of commercially pure Ti leads not only to substructure refinement with an increase of the dislocation density and microstrain level but also to an α→ ω phase transition at room temperature. The coexistence of both α and ω phases, the latter known as a high pressure phase, in the ratio approximately of 1:3 has been obtained after removal of thehigh pressure. Texture analysis of electodeposited Ni after HPT discovered a new form of crystallite orientation distribution in the nanocrystalline state. A nearly random orientation crystallite distribution has been observed unlike the “traditional” case of a shear texture forming in cubic symmetry metals. The crystallographic texture data obtained were considered as experimental evidence of the changed plastic deformation mechanisms in nanocrystalline Ni produced by HPT.

The effect of different Ti additions on the microstructure of Al-Ti alloy prepared by powder metallurgy was investigated. A certain amount of Ti (10wt%, 15wt%, and 20wt%) were added to aluminium and the tests like microhardness, density, scanning electron microscope (SEM), optical microscope (OM) and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) were conducted to determine the influence of different Ti additives on the Al-Ti alloy properties and microstructure. The results show that the grains of α-Al changed from large grains to roughly spherical and then to small rounded grains with increasing Ti content, the micro-hardness of the alloy increases with increasing Ti, and XRD results confirm the formation of TiAl3 intermetallic compound during sintering.

Ti15Mo metastable beta Ti alloy was solution treated and subsequently deformed by high-pressure torsion (HPT). HPT-deformed and benchmark non-deformed solution-treated materials were annealed at 400 °C and 500 °C in order to investigate the effect of UFG microstructure on the α-phase precipitation. Phase evolution was examined using laboratory X-ray diffraction (XRD) and by high-energy synchrotron X-ray diffraction (HEXRD), which provided more accurate measurements. Microstructure was observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and microhardness was measured for all conditions. HPT deformation was found to significantly enhance the α phase precipitation due the introduction of lattice defects such as dislocations or grain boundaries, which act as preferential nucleation sites. Moreover, in HPT-deformed material, α precipitates are small and equiaxed, contrary to the α lamellae in the non-deformed material. ω phase formation is suppressed due to massive α precipitation and consequent element partitioning. Despite that, HPT-deformed material after ageing exhibits the high microhardness exceeding 450 HV.

Prepared were p-type Bi2Te3-based thermoelectric semiconductors, having a grain-refined microstructure and a preferred orientation of anisotropic crystallographic structure. Disks with a nominal composition Bi0.5Sb1.5Te3.0 were cut from an ingot grown by the vertical Bridgman method (VBM) and deformed at 473 K under a pressure of 6.0 GPa by high pressure torsion (HPT). The crystal orientation was characterized with X-ray diffraction. The microstructures were characterized by using optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. It was found that the HPT disks had a fine and preferentially oriented grain compared to that of the VBM disks. Further, the power factor of the HPT disks was about twice as large as that of the VBM disks. These results indicate that HPT is effective for improving the thermoelectric properties of Bi2Te3-based thermoelectric semiconductors.

Equiatomic FePd alloy in the ordered state has been processed by means of high-pressure torsion deformation (HPTD) and then annealed. X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and magnetic measurements have been carried out. HPTD results in an order-disorder transformation of the initial ordered L10-phase (s.g. P4/mmm) into a disordered fcc phase (s.g. Fm-3m) through the body-centered tetragonal (bct) phase (s.g. I4/mmm). Subsequent annealing restores the L10-phase.
