摘要
The effect of heat treatments on laser additive manufacturing(LAM)Ti-5Al-2Sn-2Zr-4Mo-4Cr titanium alloy(TC17)was studied aiming to optimize its microstructure and mechanical properties.The as-deposited sample exhibits features of a mixed priorβgrain structure consisting of equiaxed and columnar grains,intragranular ultra-fineαlaths and numerous continuous grain boundaryα(αGB).After being pre-annealed inα+βregion(840°C)and standard solution and aging treated,the continuousαGB becomes coarser and the precipitate free zone(PFZ)nearby theαGB transforms into a zone filled with ultra-fine secondaryα(αS)but no primaryα(αP).When pre-annealed in singleβregion(910°C),allαphases transform intoβphase and the alloying elements distribute uniformly near the grain boundary.DiscontinuousαGB and uniform mixture ofαP andαS near grain boundary form after subsequent solution and aging treatment.The two heat treatments can improve the tensile mechanical properties of LAM TC17to satisfy the aviation standard for TC17.
研究热处理对激光增材制造Ti-5Al-2Sn-2Zr-4Mo-4Cr钛合金(TC17)的影响以优化其显微组织和力学性能。研究结果表明,激光增材制造TC17钛合金沉积态样品具有粗大的原始β柱状晶和等轴晶的混合晶粒形貌、晶内超细α片层和连续晶界α相(α_(GB))等典型特征。经α+β两相区840°C预处理和标准固溶时效热处理后,连续晶界α相(α_(GB))粗化并且在其两侧形成不含初生α相(α_P)的晶界无析出区(PFZ)。经单相区910°C预处理后,所有α相完全转变成β单相并且晶界附近溶质元素分布均匀,再经过标准固溶时效热处理形成明显断续的晶界α相(α_(GB))及呈均匀分布的晶内初生α相(α_P)和次生α相(α_S)。两种热处理工艺均可以明显提高激光增材制造TC17钛合金的综合力学性能,达到了TC17锻件航空标准规定值。
