摘要
在Ti-6Al-4V(TC4)中添加质量分数为3%的Ti B_2,通过选择性激光熔覆技术(SLM)制备TC4/TiB_w复合材料。采用X射线衍射仪(XRD)分析样品的相成分,利用扫描电镜(SEM)配合能谱仪(EDS)观察样品的表面形貌以及特定区域的元素组成,采用维氏硬度仪对材料测试显微硬度,纳米压痕测试特定组织的弹性模量。实验结果表明:在激光功率高、扫描速度快的条件下,晶粒得到细化出现亚晶胞,试样中的相主要以α-Ti形式存在,并且有新的B化物生成,观察到有未完全熔化的Ti-6Al-4V颗粒存在。力学性能测试表明,与传统的铸造工艺相比,本实验中材料的弹性模量(147 GPa)和显微硬度(500~600 HV)都有显著提高。
TC4 titanium matrix composites composed with 3wt%Ti B_2powders were produced by SLM technology to produce Ti-6Al-4V/TiB_w.X-ray diffraction was used to investigate the phase composition.The microstructure and elements of a particular region were examined by using scanning electron microscope(SEM)and energy dispersive spectrometer(EDS)respectively Meanwhile,nanoindentation and micro-hardness techniques were applied to test the mechanical properties of the Ti-6Al-4V/Ti B_wbulk.The results show that the main phase exists in the form ofα-Ti based on high laser power and fast scanning speed.Rapid cooling rate inhibites grain growth leading to generate a large number of fine grain structures.While a small quantity of unmelted Ti-6Al-4V powders lie on the matrix.The mechanical performance shows that the elastic modulus at 147 GPa and microhardness at 500-600 HV of the samples in this experiment have improved significantly compared with conventional cast TC4.
