Abstract

In this study, the titanium matrix composites (TiMCs) were fabricated by adding graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs). The dynamic compression test was carried out to study the effect of strain-rate and the GNPs content on dynamic mechanical properties of GNPs/Ti. Results show that the GNPs content (0wt%~0.8wt%) correspond to specific microstructure which affect the dynamic mechanical properties of the composites. Under high strain-rate (3500s-1), the 0.4wt%GNPs/Ti has the highest dynamic stress (~1860MPa) and strain (~30%). The adiabatic shearing band (ASB) microstructure of GNPs/Ti with various GNPs content has been observed under 3500s-1 strain-rate and the ASB microstructure evolution of 0.4wt%GNPs/Ti under different strain rate was investigated in particular.
