Abstract

Cold gas dynamic spray (cold spray) is a promising rapid deposition technology in which particles deposit at supersonic velocities. The effect of isothermal annealing on recrystallization and mechanical properties of commercial purity (CP) titanium structures that were directly fabricated through cold spray deposition is studied. The optimized cold spray parameters led to a dense cold spray structure. Results show that annealing improves ductility of the cold-sprayed CP titanium structure. The mechanism for softening is the nucleation and growth of equiaxed grains, which include an ultrafine grain structure. A physical-based model for recrystallization of the cold spray CP titanium is proposed. The results show that recrystallization does not eliminate preferred orientation inherited from the cold spray material.
