Powder metallurgy (PM), as an advanced manufacturing method, offers different microstructures and mechanical properties for titanium (Ti) alloys compared to forging metallurgy (FM). Therefore, investigating the hot deformation behaviour of PM and FM Ti alloys is of great significance. Herein, we systematically study the hot workability and hot deformed microstructure of PM and FM Ti6Al4V alloys deformed at 1000 ℃-1200 ℃ and 0.01 s-1~10 s-1 strain rates, so as to compare the different hot working properties. The true stress-strain curves were drawn through the isothermal compression tests, and the constitutive equations as well as hot processing maps of PM and FM alloys were further constructed. Results show that the PM alloy displays smaller hot deformation resistance, larger hot working safe zone and smaller instable zone when compared with FM alloy. PM alloy has higher dynamic recrystallization (DRX) degree. In DRX process, the PM alloy was dominated by discontinuous dynamic recrystallization (DDRX), while the FM alloy was dominated by continuous dynamic recrystallization (CDRX). This work reveals the difference between PM and FM Ti6Al4V alloys in hot deformation behavior and hot working properties, and further explains the underlying deformation mechanism.
