【 摘 要 】

Microstructural evolution and dynamic recrystallization (DRX) behaviors of a Ni-Cr-Mo alloy were researched utilizing hot compressive experiments. The changed features of dislocation, subgrain and grain structure correlating to forming parameters were examined by transmission electron microscope (TEM) and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD). Results illustrate that the consumption of dislocation and the coarsening of substructure/DRX grain are prominently enhanced with an increased forming temperature. However, the annihilation/interaction of dislocation and the expansion of subgrain/DRX grain boundary can be limited at a larger strain rate. Meanwhile, considering the discrepancy in DRX variation rates concerning the strain rate’s ranges, an improved DRX kinetic model was developed. Compared to the classical DRX kinetic model, the good consistency between the forecasted and tested results demonstrates that the established improved DRX kinetic model can precisely characterize the DRX features of the Ni-Cr-Mo alloy over a wide strain rate range. Additionally, the EBSD’s quantitative statistical results proved that the variation of DRX grain size can be supremely defined as the power formulation of the forming temperature and strain rate.
