Description

Near-beta type high-strength and high-toughness titanium alloy and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of titanium alloy, and particularly relates to a near-beta type high-strength and high-toughness titanium alloy and a preparation method thereof.
Background
Titanium has many characteristics: the high-strength stainless steel has the advantages of low density, high specific strength, corrosion resistance, wide temperature-resistant zone and good welding performance, is an ideal structural material, and plays an extremely important role in the development of national defense high technology, weaponry and civil industries. Titanium alloys are used in a large amount in the military and commercial fields of aviation, aerospace, ships, weaponry, chemical engineering and the like, and have a tendency of gradual increase. However, the price of titanium alloy is high, generally 8-10 times of that of steel, and the titanium alloy seriously influences the field with strict cost control requirements on weapons, ships, chemical engineering and the like. Worse, in recent years, the price of the most important master alloy aluminum vanadium of titanium alloy rises dramatically (Al55V rises from about 240 yuan/kg in 2017 to 600 yuan/kg at present, and the demand of vanadium in the steel industry in China is strong, and the price of the aluminum vanadium master alloy will keep high in the long future), so that the production cost of the TC4 titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) which is widely applied at present rises by more than 15 yuan per kilogram.
Because the starting is late, the weapon industry in China currently lacks special titanium alloy with low cost, high specific strength and high damage tolerance, namely low-cost and high-toughness titanium alloy, so that the production cost is difficult to control in a lower range on the premise of ensuring the use safety and high-efficiency weight reduction. In addition, due to the application characteristics of the weapon industry, part of the titanium products need to rub against the ground or structural parts made of other materials for a long time, so that higher requirements are put on the wear resistance of the titanium alloy for soldiers.
The development work of low-cost high-strength titanium alloy at home and abroad is always carried out. Ti12LC (Ti-4.5Al-7Mo-2Fe) alloy developed by northwest nonferrous metals research institute and LCB (Ti-4.5Fe-6.8Mo-1.5Al) developed by the United states all adopt cheap Fe or Fe-Mo intermediate alloy as production raw materials, so that the material cost can be obviously reduced, but the alloy still has good mechanical property and hot-working plasticity. The tensile strength of the two alloys can reach about 1100MPa, the toughness is equivalent to TC11, the two alloys belong to conventional high-strength low-cost titanium alloys, but the specific strength of the two alloys is still a certain difference compared with the titanium alloys with higher strength, particularly the ultrahigh-strength titanium alloys with the strength exceeding 1400 MPa. In addition, the wear resistance of the two titanium alloys and the conventional titanium alloy is greatly different from that of high-strength steel, and the design requirements of structural members such as a crawler belt and the like which have both strength requirements and wear resistance requirements cannot be met at present.
A small amount of B element is added into the alloy, so that the solidification characteristic of the alloy can be improved, the grain size of cast ingots is refined, and the in-situ authigenic strengthening phase TiB can be formed by desolventizing after solidification. The in-situ authigenic hard particles which are distributed in a dispersing way are firmly combined with the matrix, so that the wear resistance and tensile strength of the alloy can be effectively improved, excessive hard precipitates can damage the room-temperature plasticity and toughness of the alloy, and the dispersion degree and the total content of the precipitates need to be controlled, so that higher comprehensive performance matching is achieved, and the use requirements of the field of the weapon industry part on titanium alloy with high toughness and high wear resistance are met.
At present, the titanium residue recovery technology in China has obvious progress, and titanium products meeting the national standard requirements can be prepared in large batch by using the titanium residue. China produces a large amount of TA15 titanium alloy residues every year in the titanium industry, but TA15 titanium alloy reclaimed material products are few in application at present. A large amount of residual waste materials generated in each production link of the TA15 titanium alloy for aviation and aerospace can only be treated as common waste materials, so that great resource waste is caused. If a novel titanium alloy for soldiers can be developed, a large amount of TA15 titanium alloy residues can be used, the application requirements of low cost and high toughness for the soldiers are met, the problem of recycling a large amount of TA15 titanium alloy residues can be solved, the large-range application of the titanium alloy in the field of weapons can be promoted, and the upgrading and updating process of weapon equipment in China is accelerated.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to solve the technical problem of providing a near-beta type high-strength and high-toughness titanium alloy aiming at the defects of the prior art. The near-beta type high-strength and high-toughness titanium alloy adopts an Al-Zr system to jointly strengthen an alpha phase in the titanium alloy, adopts a Mo-V-Cr-Fe system to jointly strengthen a beta phase in the titanium alloy, enhances the coupling strengthening effect, ensures the stability of the phase and the performance of the titanium alloy, enables the titanium alloy to have good strength and toughness matching, simultaneously controls the Aleq to be 4.2-5.5 and the Moeq to be 12.5-15.0, enables the titanium alloy to have good strength and toughness, avoids the risk of eutectoid reaction of Cr and Fe alloy elements, and ensures the strengthening effect.
In order to solve the technical problems, the technical scheme provided by the invention is as follows: the near-beta type high-strength and high-toughness titanium alloy is characterized by comprising the following components in percentage by mass: 4.0 to 5.5 percent of Al, 0.8 to 1.8 percent of Zr, 3.0 to 4.5 percent of Mo, 1.0 to 2.0 percent of V, 1.5 to 2.5 percent of Fe, 2.5 to 3.5 percent of Cr, less than or equal to 0.12 percent of B, and the balance of Ti and inevitable impurities; the tensile strength of the titanium alloy after heat treatment is 1100 MPa-1350 MPa, the yield strength is more than 1020MPa, the elongation percentage A after fracture is more than 8%, the reduction of area Z is more than 16%, and the impact toughness a isKUGreater than 25J/cm2Fracture toughness KICGreater than 60MPa m1/2
The Moeq (Mo equivalent) of the near-beta titanium alloy is specified in a range of 11.0-16.5, and for the near-beta titanium alloy with high Moeq, the high Aleq (Al equivalent) can increase the strength of the titanium alloy to a certain extent, but can seriously damage the toughness of the titanium alloy, thereby seriously affecting the popularization and application of the high-strength titanium alloy in the field of structural members; the low Aleq alloy has good toughness, but has low strength, and cannot meet the design requirement of high toughness. The Aleq of the near-beta high-toughness titanium alloy is controlled to be 4.2-5.5, so that the near-beta high-toughness titanium alloy has good strength and toughness, and meanwhile, the alpha phase in the titanium alloy is strengthened by adopting an Al-Zr system together, so that the near-beta high-toughness titanium alloy has a more efficient coupling strengthening effect compared with the titanium alloy which is singly adopted by an Al element; in addition, under the premise of ensuring that Aleq is not changed, Zr replaces partial Al, so that precipitation of Ti3Al intermetallic compounds in a long-time aging process can be inhibited, the plasticity and toughness of the titanium alloy are damaged, and excessive growth of crystal grains when the crystal grains are heated above the phase transition temperature can be inhibited, so that the hot-working crystal grain refining efficiency of the titanium alloy is improved, and the production period and the cost are reduced.
The near-beta type high-strength and high-toughness titanium alloy adopts a Mo-V-Cr-Fe system to jointly strengthen the beta phase. Cr and Fe are slow eutectoid beta-stable elements with high efficiency and low cost, and are added together with Mo element, so that the eutectoid reaction of the slow eutectoid Cr and Fe alloy elements in long-time aging and use can be effectively inhibited while the high-efficiency strengthening effect of the beta phase of the Mo element is kept, the stability of the phase and performance of the titanium alloy in the use process is ensured, and the production cost is obviously reduced. The element V has high cost and weak strengthening effect, but because the element can be infinitely dissolved in a beta phase, the element also has certain solid solubility in an alpha phase, and eutectoid reaction and compound precipitation are avoided, and based on the characteristics, the addition of the element V can effectively improve the toughness of the high-strength titanium alloy after aging strengthening. Therefore, by adding a proper amount of V element, the beta-phase can be reinforced more efficiently by coupling and reinforcing with Mo, Cr and Fe alloy on the premise of not increasing the cost obviously, and the alloy has good toughness matching.
For Ti-Al-Zr-Mo-V-Cr-Fe titanium alloy, high Moeq means good solid solution strengthening effect, but too high Moeq can reduce the alpha phase content at room temperature, thereby reducing the alpha/beta phase interface and damaging the interface strengthening effect, and high Moeq can also increase the potential risk of eutectoid reaction of Cr and Fe alloy elements; a low Moeq does not ensure sufficient solid solution and aging strengthening effect. Therefore, Moeq of the near-beta high-strength and toughness titanium alloy is controlled to be 12.5-15.0, the risk of eutectoid reaction of Cr and Fe alloy elements is avoided, and the strengthening effect is guaranteed.
Moeq and Al in the near-beta type high-strength and high-toughness titanium alloyeqThe calculation formula of (2) is as follows:
Moeq=1.0Mo+0.2Ta+0.4W+0.67V+1.25Cr+1.25Ni+1.7Mn+1.7Co+2.5Fe+0.28Nb
Aleq=1.0Al+1/3Sn+1/6Zr+10O+10C+20N

Comparative example 1
The titanium alloy of the comparative example is TC18 titanium alloy, the component is Ti-5Al-5V-5Mo-1Cr-1Fe, and the titanium alloy comprises the following components in percentage by mass: 5% of Al, 5% of Mo, 5% of V, 1% of Fe, 1% of Cr, and the balance of Ti and inevitable impurities.

The cost of the raw material of the electrode of this comparative example was calculated to be 140 yuan/kg.
Comparing comparative example 1 with example 1, it can be seen that the toughness of the TC18 titanium alloy in comparative example 1 is substantially the same as that of the near- β type high-toughness titanium alloy in example 1, but the strength and plasticity of the near- β type high-toughness titanium alloy in example 1 is better than that of the TC18 titanium alloy in comparative example 1; comparing the comparative example 1 with the example 4, it can be seen that the TC18 titanium alloy in the comparative example 1 and the near β -type high toughness titanium alloy in the example 4 have substantially the same strength and plasticity, but the fracture toughness of the near β -type high toughness titanium alloy in the example 4 is better than that of the TC18 titanium alloy in the comparative example 1, which shows that the near β -type high toughness titanium alloy of the present invention adopts Al and Zr alloy elements to efficiently combine and strengthen the α phase, and is better than that of the TC18 titanium alloy, so that the near β -type high toughness titanium alloy has a better coupling strengthening effect with the β phase strengthened by high Moeq (Mo, V, Fe, Cr alloy elements are efficiently strengthened, and Moeq > 12.1), and thus has a better toughness matching. Although the addition of two slow-commonality beta-stable elements of Fe and Cr has potential influence on the phase stability and the corresponding performance stability of the titanium alloy, the addition of Mo can obviously inhibit the common reaction process of the slow-commonality beta-stable elements, and the slight risk reduction of the phase stability and the performance stability of the titanium alloy is completely acceptable for the weapon industry. In addition, the raw material cost of the near-beta type high-strength and toughness titanium alloy of the embodiments 1 and 4 is 1/2 of the TC18 titanium alloy of the comparative example 1, which shows that the invention adopts the TA15 titanium alloy reclaimed material as the preparation raw material, thereby greatly reducing the preparation cost of the near-beta type high-strength and toughness titanium alloy.
Comparing comparative example 1 with examples 2 and 3, it can be seen that the TC18 titanium alloy of comparative example 1 has slightly better plasticity and toughness than the near β type high toughness titanium alloy of examples 2 and 3, but its strength, especially wear resistance, is much lower than the near β type high toughness titanium alloy of examples 2 and 3, which shows that B added to the near β type high toughness titanium alloy of the present invention produces TiB hard strengthening phase in situ in the β matrix, and although the toughness and room temperature plasticity of the titanium alloy are impaired, the wear resistance and strength of the titanium alloy are greatly improved. In addition, even if high-cost B element is added, the raw material cost of the embodiment 2 and the embodiment 3 does not exceed 60 percent of that of TC18, which shows that the TA15 titanium alloy reclaimed material is adopted as the preparation raw material in the invention, so that the preparation method has strong competitive advantage.
