Abstract
Superplasticity has been observed widely in several kinds of materials, such as metals (including aluminum-, magnesium-, iron-, titanium-, and nickel-based alloys), ceramics (including monoliths and composites), intermetallics (including iron, nickel, and titanium base), and laminates. Superplastic forming (SPF) is an advanced manufacturing method for producing very complex thin-sheet components. Consequently, a single SPF manufacturing process can produce complex structural components without the need for welding or riveting parts together. In this chapter, the SPF of a titanium alloy multilayer, titanium alloy bellows, aluminium alloy, TiAl and Nb-Si-Fe intermetallics, and Inconel 718 superalloy was introduced.
