M - Ti6Al4VP - Rolled PlateAp - StructureCd - Non-Pierced
Cm - Micrography by SEMDf - Plastic Deformation
Micrographic detail by scanning electron microscopy of the shearing of the material due to the projectile impact. It is a very localized plastic deformation effect, and there are several microvoids opening in the microstructure (phase boundaries). HF+HNO3+H2O chemical etch.
