Abstract

EBSD and in-situ SEM were used to study the plastic behavior of laser beam welding Ti-6Al-4V. Due to the high weld temperature(exceeding the β-transus) and high cooling rate, β→α' martensitic transformation occurs. Within the fusion zone, only acicular morphology exists, while in 1st heat affected zone(HAZ) and 2nd HAZ, these acicular laths globalize, which show an obvious microstructural gradient. The result of the in-situ plastic deformation shows the deformation can be divided into 2 stages. In the first stage of the deformation, either slipping or twinning can occur. It depends on whether the initial orientation can respect <120>//TA(tensile axis) by rotating the grains or not. While in the second stage, only slipping can be found.
