激光快速修复Ti-6A1-4V合金的显微组织与力学性能

针对Ti-6A1-4V合金在加工和服役过程中的损伤特点，对Ti-6A1-4V合金锻件的3种典型误加工缺陷——槽缺陷、面缺陷和体缺陷进行了激光快速修复研究。激光修复区与锻件基体形成致密冶金结合，Al、V合金元素由锻件基体到激光修复区均匀分布，无宏观偏析。激光修复区组织为粗大原始∥晶粒内分布细长的α针及编织细密的a＋β板条组织，呈现典型的魏氏结构，热影响区组织从锻件的等轴α＋转变β组织逐步过渡到魏氏（a＋β）组织。对预制有3种类型缺陷的激光修复试样进行室温静载拉伸试验和硬度测试，结果表明修复试样的拉伸性能达到锻件标准（HB5224-1982）。激光修复试样的硬度和强度高于锻件基体，而塑性则低于锻件基体。因此，激光修复区和锻件基体可看作是一种“强＋弱”的组合，这与二者的显微组织是相对应的。     

激光成形修复Ti-6Al-4V钛合金零件的组织与性能

分析了激光成形修复Ti-6Al-4V合金的组织特点,并考察了退火处理对修复区组织及修复件性能的影响.激光修复件的微观组织由修复基体所具有的等轴α+层状α+β双态组织经热影响区连续转变为晶内分布魏氏α+β的外廷生长的粗大柱状晶组织.激光修复件的静载拉伸性能达到锻件标准.经退火处理后,修复区中α板条有粗化趋势,修复件的综合力学性能得到一定改善,塑性有所提高.经采用退火+喷丸处理,修复件的低周疲劳性能达到与锻件相当.     

混合元素法激光立体成形Ti-6Al-4V的组织及性能研究

以Ti、Al、V混合元素粉末为原料激光沉积Ti-6Al-4V,并对沉积态试样的组织演化及力学性能进行研究.结果表明,与采用预合金Ti-6Al-4V粉末为原料所获得的沉积试样的凝固组织特征有所不同,采用混合元素粉末为原料获得的沉积试样的凝固组织随激光功率的提高逐渐由等轴晶转化为柱状晶,熔池内合金化过程所产生的混合热的扰动作用是导致低功率条件下等轴晶形成的原因.原始β晶粒内的微观组织由大量的魏氏α板条和一定体积分数的板条间β相组成.这与采用预合金粉末基本相同.混合元素法激光立体成形Ti-6Al-4V的氧含量仅约0.1wt.%,沉积态Ti-6Al-4V的室温拉伸性能超过锻件标准要求.     

选区激光熔化制备Ti-6Al-4V合金的热处理工艺及力学性能

采用选区激光熔化技术(SLM)制备Ti-6Al-4V合金圆棒试样,通过不同的热处理工艺改善材料的拉伸性能,并对SLM制备的Ti-6Al-4V合金试样开展了高周疲劳性能测试。通过微观组织和疲劳试样断口分析,揭示了显微组织结构与拉伸性能的关系,以及Ti-6Al-4V合金的疲劳裂纹起始源和裂纹扩展机理。结果表明,热处理工艺对SLM成型Ti-6Al-4V合金的力学性能有显著的影响,920 ℃×1 h水冷,随后800 ℃×2 h炉冷的固溶时效热处理制度可以获得较好的综合室温拉伸性能。其室温组织为晶界上分布的α相和晶粒内部片层状分布的α+β相。SLM成型Ti-6Al-4V合金显微组织中的晶界形成与扫描路径相关,热处理过程中α相会优先在扫描分区搭接处析出。与手册锻件的疲劳寿命曲线比较,在同样的最大应力水平下,增材试样的疲劳寿命比锻件的疲劳寿命低,这种降低的趋势随着应力水平的降低而逐步增大。在400 MPa的应力水平下(R=-1),锻件的疲劳寿命已经在2×10⁷水平,增材试样的疲劳寿命依然较低,约为锻件的1%。SLM成型Ti-6Al-4V合金的应力疲劳寿命偏低,是由于试样中存在未熔合缺陷造成。扫描分区搭接处易产生未熔合缺陷,而疲劳裂纹也会沿着这些缺陷扩展。     

激光焊接对SPF/DBTi-6Al-4V合金疲劳性能的影响

研究了SPF/DB Ti-6Al-4V合金及其激光焊接接头静态拉伸性能和疲劳性能,并获得S-N曲线.通过观察组织特征和疲劳断口形貌,分析了激光焊接对SPF/DB Ti-6Al-4V合金疲劳性能的影响.结果表明,SPF/DB T-6Al-4V合金激光焊接接头的抗拉强度略低于母材抗拉强度,而疲劳强度明显低于母材疲劳强度,约为其抗拉强度的40%.SPF/DB Ti-6Al-4V合金组织为α+β等轴细晶组织,其焊接接头组织为含α,针状马氏体α'和少量β相的魏氏组织结构.焊接接头组织结构的不均匀性,以及组织的粗大化是导致激光焊接接头疲劳性能下降的重要原因.SPF/DB Ti-6Al-4V合金疲劳断裂为塑性断裂,其焊接接头疲劳断裂为准解理断裂,这显著降低激光焊接接头的疲劳性能.而焊接气孔等焊缝表层微小几何不连续缺陷的存在往往成为激光焊接接头疲劳断裂的裂纹源.     

Y元素对铸造Ti-6Al-4V合金微观组织与力学性能的影响

本文研究了Y元素合金化对铸造Ti-6Al-4V合金微观组织与力学性能的影响。铸态合金微观组织与力学性能分别利用金相显微镜、扫描电镜、透射电镜和拉伸试验进行表征。结果显示,Ti-6Al-4V合金呈现典型的魏氏组织特征。添加Y元素后,合金中形成Y2O3颗粒并分布在初生β晶粒的晶界处,同时在晶界两侧形成平行的α/β层片结构,而晶粒内部形成相互交叉的α/β层片结构,即Y2O3明显改变了Ti基体片层组织形貌。相比于Ti-6Al-4V合金,添加Y元素之后,合金的屈服强度和抗拉强度稍有提高,但是平行的α/β层片结构和Y2O3颗粒引起合金由解理断裂向延晶断裂转变,进而导致延伸率显著减小。所以,Ti基体微观组织变化对合金力学性能同样具有重要作用。     

激光成形修复TC4合金锻件的低周疲劳性能

采用激光成形修复技术制备了TC4合金锻件的面修复试样,对修复试样的显微组织、拉伸性能、低周疲劳性能进行了研究。激光修复区组织由粗大原始β柱状晶粒及晶内细长的α针及编织细密的α+β板条组织组成,热影响区组织呈现从锻件基体组织向修复区组织的连续变化,修复区与锻件基体为致密的冶金结合。对两组面修复试样分别进行去应力退火和去应力退火+喷丸处理后,测试获得了激光成形修复TC4合金锻件的低周疲劳曲线,由于面修复试样的拉伸性能与锻件相比强度高而塑性低,因此两组修复试样的疲劳寿命在低应变区高于TC4模锻件,此区强度对疲劳寿命起主要作用;而在高应变区低于模锻件,此区塑性对疲劳寿命起主要作用。修复试样经喷丸处理后,无论在高应变区还是在低应变区,其疲劳寿命都有所提高,并且在高应变区接近TC4模锻件水平,而在低应变区则高出模锻件一个数量级。     

Ti-6Al-4Mo(Cr,V)合金的组织特征及拉伸性能

比较分析了Ti-6Al4Mo、Ti-6Al-4Cr、Ti-6Al-4V钛合金经热处理后的显微组织及拉伸性能.结果表明,在相同的热处理状态下,Ti-6Al-4Mo、Ti-6Al-4Cr、Ti-6Al-4V钛合金中的α相尺寸呈现Mo、Cr、V依次增大的趋势.而不论热处理状态是否相同时,单位质量合金元素的强化效果均按照Cr、Mo、V的顺序降低.三种合金在α+β两相区退火后,具有较好的塑性且塑性基本相当,但Ti-6Al-4Mo合金经β退火后拉伸塑性较低.     

激光功率对激光熔化沉积Ti-6Al-4V-0.25C合金组织和性能的影响

采用含0.25%C(质量分数)的Ti-6Al-4V预合金粉末进行激光熔化沉积试验,研究了激光功率对Ti-6Al-4V-0.25C合金组织和性能的影响。结果表明,Ti-6Al-4V-0.25C合金微观结构为等轴β晶粒,晶粒内部形成了层状α+β结构,并且平均晶粒尺寸和α板条尺寸均随着激光功率的增加而逐渐增加。此外,随着激光功率的增加,合金拉伸性能得到明显提升,特别是在激光功率为1500 W时制备的合金样品,抗拉强度、屈服强度及伸长率分别为1191 MPa、1129 MPa和8.3%。一方面,这是由于激光功率增加使得合金孔隙率显著降低;另一方面,Ti-6Al-4V合金中含有微量的C元素,在冷却/凝固过程中,大多数的C原子固溶在Ti基体中,造成固溶强化。     

原位SEM研究LDMD Ti-6Al-4V合金β晶界对拉伸断裂行为的影响

目的研究β晶界对激光直接熔化沉积(LDMD)Ti-6Al-4V合金裂纹形核或传播行为的影响,以澄清合金的断裂机制,为合金性能的改善提供理论依据。方法采用LDMD Ti-6Al-4V合金粉末,在Ti-6Al-4V基板上逐层堆积形成沉积层。沿沉积层扫描方向截取试样,在室温下观察样品的微观组织形貌,并对原位拉伸过程中的微观组织演化进行实时研究。同时研究β晶界对微裂纹萌生、扩展和断裂的影响行为,总结断裂机理。结果 LDMD Ti-6Al-4V合金组织宏观呈现出沿构造方向生长的粗大柱状β晶,β晶内由板条状α晶和整齐排列的具有相同生长取向的α簇组织组成,并有少量孔洞缺陷。采用原位扫描电镜拉伸样品时发现,在横向拉力作用下,样品最初在孔洞周围发生变形,之后裂纹的萌生扩展主要沿β晶界进行,β晶界对拉力起阻碍作用,造成样品的伸长率较低。拉伸过程中,微观组织主要沿着β晶界周围的α相变形,并且孔洞缺陷引起的应力集中使得缺陷周围变形最严重,变形方向与拉力方向呈45°。结论孔洞缺陷决定了样品的初始变形位置,而β晶界则决定了裂纹传播的方向,且由于拉伸试样的截取方向与β晶界相垂直,导致样品的伸长率较低,所以β晶界对样品的力学性能及断裂机理起决定作用。     

Effects of Post-weld Heat Treatment on Microstructure,Mechanical Properties and the Role of Weld Reinforcement in 2219 Aluminum Alloy TIG-Welded Joints

In as-welded state, each region of 2219 aluminum alloy TIG-welded joint shows diff erent microstructure and microhardness due to the diff erent welding heat cycles and the resulting evolution of second phases. After the post-weld heat treatment, both the amount and the size of the eutectic structure or θ phases decreased. Correspondingly, both the Cu content in α-Al matrix and the microhardness increased to a similar level in each region of the joint, and the tensile strength of the entire joint was greatly improved. Post-weld heat treatment played the role of solid solution strengthening and aging strengthening. After the post-weld heat treatment, the weld performance became similar to other regions, but weld reinforcements lost their reinforcing eff ect on the weld and their existence was more of an adverse eff ect. The joint without weld reinforcements after the post-weld heat treatment had the optimal tensile properties, and the specimens randomly crack in the weld zone.

THERMODYNAMICS STUDY ON THE DECOMPOSITION OF CHROMITE WITH KOH

Institute of Process Engineering, Chinese Academy of Sciences, China, has proposed a method for oxidative leaching of chromite with potassium hydroxide. Understanding the mechanism of chromite decomposition, especially in the potassium hydroxide fusion, is important for the optimization of the operating parameters of the oxidative leaching process. A traditional thermodynamic method is proposed and the thermal decomposition and the reaction decomposition during the oxidative leaching of chromite with KOH and oxygen is discussed, which suggests that chromite is mainly destroyed by reactions with KOH and oxygen. Meanwhile, equilibrium of the main reactions of the above process was calculated at different temperatures and oxygen partial pressures. The stable zones of productions, namely, K2CrO4 and Fe2O3, increase with the decrease of temperature, which indicates that higher temperature is not beneficial to thermodynamic reactions. In addition, a comparison of the general alkali methods is carried out, and it is concluded that the KOH leaching process is thermodynamically superior to the conventional chromate production process.     

INFLUENCE OF HEAT TREATMENT ON DAMPING BEHAVIOUR OF THE MAGNESIUM WROUGHT ALLOY AZ61

The effect of isochronal heat treatments for 1h on variation of damping, hardness and microstructural change of the magnesium wrought alloy AZ61 was investigated. Damping and hardness behaviour could be attributed to the evolution of precipitation process. The influence of precipitation on damping behaviour was explained in the framework of the dislocation string model of Granato and Lücke.     

Three-Dimensional Growth of Coherent Ferrite in Austenite: A Molecular Dynamics Study

Coherent second phase often exhibits anisotropic morphology with specifi c orientations with respect to both the second and the matrix phases. As a key feature of microstructure, the morphology of the coherent particles is essential for understanding the second-phase strengthening eff ect in various industrial alloys. This letter reports anisotropic growth of coherent ferrite from austenite matrix in pure iron based on molecular dynamics simulation. We found that the ferrite grain tends to grow into an elongated plate-like shape, independent of its initial confi guration. The fi nal shape of the ferrite is closely related to the misfi t between the two phases, with the longest direction and the broad facet of the plate being, respectively, consistent with the best matching direction and the best matching plane calculated via the Burgers vector content(BVC) method. The strain energy calculation in the framework of Eshelby's inclusion theory verifi es that the simulated orientation of the coherent ferrite is energetically favorable. It is anticipated that the BVC method will be applicable in analysis of anisotropic growth and morphology of coherent second phase in other phase transformation systems.     

Effect of Rare Earth Doping on Impedance,Modulus and Conductivity Properties of Multiferroic Composites:0.5(BiLa_xFe_(1-x)O_3)–0.5(PbTiO_3)

The Lanthanum-doped bismuth ferrite–lead titanate compositions of 0.5(Bi LaxFe1-xO3)–0.5(Pb Ti O3)(x = 0.05,0.10,0.15,0.20)(BLxF1-x-PT) were prepared by mixed oxide method.Structural characterization was performed by X-ray diffraction and shows a tetragonal structure at room temperature.The lattice parameter c/a ratio decreases with increasing of La(x = 0.05–0.20) concentration of the composites.The effect of charge carrier/ion hopping mechanism,conductivity,relaxation process and impedance parameters was studied using an impedance analyzer in a wide frequency range(102–106Hz) at different temperatures.The nature of Nyquist plot confirms the presence of bulk effects only,and non-Debye type of relaxation processes occurs in the composites.The electrical modulus exhibits an important role of the hopping mechanism in the electrical transport process of the materials.The ac conductivity and dc conductivity of the materials were studied,and the activation energy found to be 0.81,0.77,0.76 and 0.74 e V for all compositions of x = 0.05–0.20 at different temperatures(200–300 °C).     

Using Finite Element and Contour Method to Evaluate Residual Stress in Thick Ti-6Al-4V Alloy Welded by Electron Beam Welding

This work was to reveal the residual stress profile in electron beam welded Ti-6Al-4V alloy plates(50 mm thick) by using finite element and contour measurement methods.A three-dimensional finite element model of 50-mmthick titanium component was proposed,in which a column–cone combined heat source model was used to simulate the temperature field and a thermo-elastic–plastic model to analyze residual stress in a weld joint based on ABAQUS software.Considering the uncertainty of welding simulation,the computation was calibrated by experimental data of contour measurement method.Both test and simulated results show that residual stresses on the surface and inside the weld zone are significantly different and present a narrow and large gradient feature in the weld joint.The peak tensile stress exceeds the yield strength of base materials inside weld,which are distinctly different from residual stress of the thin Ti-6Al-4V alloy plates presented in references before.     

Microstructures and Tensile Properties of Ultrafine-Grained Ni–(1–3.5) wt% SiC_(NP) Composites Prepared by a Powder Metallurgy Route

Silicon carbide nanoparticle-reinforced nickel-based composites(Ni–Si CNP),with a Si CNPcontent ranged from1 to 3.5 wt%,were prepared using mechanical alloying and spark plasma sintering.In addition,unreinforced pure nickel samples were also prepared for comparative purposes.To characterize the microstructural properties of both the unreinforced pure nickel and the Ni–Si CNPcomposites transmission electron microscopy(TEM) was used,while their mechanical behavior was investigated using the Vickers pyramid method for hardness measurements and a universal tensile testing machine for tensile tests.TEM results showed an array of dislocation lines decorated in the sintered pure nickel sample,whereas,for the Ni–Si CNPcomposites,the presence of nano-dispersed Si CNPand twinning crystals was observed.These homogeneously distributed Si CNPwere found located either within the matrix,between twins or on grain boundaries.For the Ni–Si CNPcomposites,coerced coarsening of the Si CNPassembly occurred with increasing Si CNPcontent.Furthermore,the grain sizes of the Ni–Si CNPcomposites were much finer than that of the unreinforced pure nickel,which was considered to be due to the composite ball milling process.In all cases,the Ni–Si CNPcomposites showed higher strengths and hardness values than the unreinforced pure nickel,likely due to a combination of dispersion strengthening(Orowan effects) and particle strengthening(Hall–Petch effects).For the Ni–Si CNPcomposites,the strength increased initially and then decreased as a function of Si CNPcontent,whereas their elongation percentages decreased linearly.Compared to all materials tested,the Ni–Si CNPcomposite containing 1.5% Si C was found more superior considering both their strength and plastic properties.     

Directional Growth of Tin Crystals Controlled by Combined Solute Concentration Gradient Field and Static Magnetic Field

A new method was introduced to achieve directional growth of Sn crystals. Microstructures in liquid(Pb)/liquid(Sn) diffusion couples were investigated under various static magnetic fields. Results show that the β-Sn crystals mainly reveal an irregular dendritic morphology without or with a relatively low static magnetic field(B0.3 T). When the magnetic field is increased to 0.5 T, the β-Sn dendrites close to the final stage of growth begin to show some directional character. With a further increase in the magnetic field to a higher level(0.8–5 T), the β-Sn dendrites have an enhanced directional growth character, but the dendrites show a certain deflection. As the magnetic field is increased to 12 T, the directional growth of the β-Sn dendrites in the center of the couple is severely destroyed. The mechanism of the directional growth of the β-Sn crystals and the deflection of the β-Sn crystals with the application of static magnetic field was tentatively discussed.
