| description | This study investigates the grain characteristics and high-temperature tensile properties of an additively manufactured (AM) TA15 titanium alloy. Directed energy deposition (DED) was utilized for its high material efficiency and design flexibility to explore the alloy’s applicability in aerospace manufacturing, where TA15 is valued for its excellent high-temperature performance. A comparative analysis between DED and hot-rolled TA15 alloys was conducted at 25 °C and 600 °C to examine the influence of grain size and crystallographic texture on mechanical behavior. The AM TA15 alloy exhibited superior tensile properties at both temperatures compared to its hot-rolled counterpart. Microstructural analysis revealed finer grain size, stronger α-phase diffraction intensity, and altered grain boundary misorientation in the AM alloy after high-temperature testing, accompanied by improved plasticity. These findings highlight the potential of thermal process optimization and microstructural tailoring to enhance the high-temperature performance of AM TA15, offering valuable insights for the fabrication of critical aerospace components. |
