We have presented a formation of ultrafine‐grained microstructure (d α ≈ 0.2 µm) of industrial Ti–6Al–4V alloy produced by the hot compression of a sample with the acicular α′ martensite starting microstructure. The hot‐deformation behavior was different from the case of the conventional (α + β) starting microstructure, that is, the phase transformation of α′/(α + β) during hot working enhanced the microstructural conversion, especially under the conditions of a low temperature and a high‐strain rate.
