In order to solve the problems in the prior art, the inventor firstly considers the adding mode of the reinforcing phase, the existing adding mode is divided into an endogenous method and an external method, reinforcing particles prepared by the endogenous method are fine, are well metallurgically combined with a matrix, have a low thermal expansion coefficient, but fine particles are easy to agglomerate, so that local components of the material are not uniform, reinforcing phase particles with the size larger than micron are difficult to generate, and the reinforcing particles are easy to be cut in a large area in the process of material abrasion, so that the disadvantages of greatly improving the hardness and the wear resistance of the high-entropy alloy are solved. In the external addition method, hard particles are directly added, so that residual gaps exist between the external particles and a matrix material, the affinity between the particles and the matrix is low, and the mechanical property is poor.
For the preparation method, in the prior art, when the non-metal reinforced particles are added by using a vacuum melting method, the factors such as thermal expansion and condensation generated in the casting process and the difference of the density, the thermal expansion coefficient and the material interface among materials exist, so that the as-cast high-entropy alloy has the defects of large grain size, obvious internal component segregation, overlarge material internal stress, more gaps, shrinkage cavities and the like; the laser plating method is more suitable for preparing the composite material with the surface layer enhancement effect; the 3D printing has high requirements on the shape and the flowability of the powder, and the input cost is high; in the conventional powder metallurgy process, the powder is usually required to be molded firstly, friction exists between the powder and a mold wall in the process, hard particles have high hardness, the prepared green body has high pore defects, and the subsequent sintering time is long, so that the growth phenomenon of the tissue in the material is obvious, and the mechanical property of the material is reduced.
How to improve the uniform distribution of the reinforcing phase and the interface affinity of the reinforcing phase and the high-entropy alloy matrix through a proper process, reduce the interface defects in the composite material, and further greatly improve the wear resistance of the high-entropy alloy matrix is a key point for preparing the high-entropy alloy composite material.
According to the invention, the surface of the reinforced particle is subjected to metallization pretreatment, so that the problem that the interface has gaps and is not firmly combined when the reinforced particle is directly contacted with a matrix can be greatly improved, the metallurgical bonding of the interface is enhanced, the quality of the composite material is improved, the phenomena of falling off of the reinforced particle and the like in the use process are reduced, and the wear resistance of the material is indirectly improved.
The invention also provides a high-entropy alloy matrix composed of 5 elements, wherein ceramic particles subjected to surface metallization pretreatment and diamond micro powder are jointly used as a reinforcing phase, and Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) is used as a preparation method to prepare the high-entropy alloy wear-resistant composite material.
According to the invention, ceramic particles and diamond micro powder are used as an additional hybrid reinforcing phase together, and are composed of components of 'diamond micro powder-ceramic particles-samples' in space, so that a 'micro-mesoscopic-macroscopic' size difference effect is cooperatively constructed, the hybrid reinforcing particles are all cross-coated by a matrix in a three-dimensional direction, good component transition and circulation are formed in the composite material, further, the isotropy of the hardness of the high-entropy alloy wear-resistant composite material is improved, and the stability of the performance of the composite material is ensured. Through the multidimensional structure, the wear resistance of the high-entropy alloy wear-resistant composite material is greatly improved.

(4) An MMH-5 type three-body abrasive abrasion tester is utilized to simultaneously test the composite material sample and the Cu prepared under the same process conditions0.5The three-body abrasion performance test is carried out on the FeCoCrNi high-entropy alloy matrix sample, the sample is subjected to ultrasonic cleaning, drying and weighing once every 2 hours, the total test time is 10 hours, and the weight of the sample after each abrasion is as follows in sequence: g0、G1、G2、G3、G4、G5And the abrasion resistance of the sample is represented by comparing the final weight loss rate of the sample.
Weight loss rate (total weight loss/G)0) X 100%, total weight loss G0–G5。
The test results are shown in table 5, and it can be known from table 5 that the abrasion weight loss ratio of the high-entropy alloy matrix sample is 1.57 times that of the composite material, that is, the abrasion resistance of the composite material is 1.57 times that of the matrix material, and the abrasion performance is improved.
Table 5 table of sample weighing data for example 5.
Comparative example 1
The difference between the comparative example and the example 1 is that in the step (2), the surface metallization pretreatment is not carried out on the added mixed hard particles ZTA ceramic particles and the diamond micropowder, and the process parameters such as the rest addition amount, the particle size and the like are the same as those in the example 1.
Experimental results show that if the surface of the reinforced particles is not subjected to metallization pretreatment and is directly mixed with high-entropy alloy matrix powder for SPS sintering, the reinforced particles without good conductivity can block effective connection and sintering between the reinforced particles and the matrix and between the alloy powder, and the preparation of the composite material is basically difficult to realize. As can be seen from the graph (a) in fig. 3, the sintered sample of example 1 forms a clean and dense bonding interface between the reinforcing particles and the matrix, and the matrix alloy is completely sintered, while as can be seen from the graph (b) in fig. 3, the sintered sample of comparative example 1 cannot form bonding between the reinforcing particles and the matrix, has a large number of voids, and the matrix portion maintains the original powder form, and no solid phase sintering process occurs.
Comparative example 2
The difference between the comparative example and the example 1 is that in the step (2), the surface metallization pretreatment is not carried out on the mixed hard particle ZTA ceramic particles, the metallization pretreatment is carried out on the diamond micropowder, and the process parameters such as the rest addition amount, the particle size and the like are the same as the example 1. The test results are as follows.
Experimental results show that the added mixed hard particles ZTA ceramic particles do not undergo surface metallization pretreatment, but only the diamond micro powder undergoes metallization pretreatment, so that the abrasion resistance of the composite material is reduced.
Comparative example 3
The comparative example is different from example 1 in that in step (2), the addition of the hybrid hard particle diamond micropowder does not perform surface metallization pretreatment, ZTA ceramic particles perform metallization pretreatment, and the rest of the process parameters such as addition amount, particle size and the like are the same as those of example 1. The test results are as follows.
Experimental results show that the added mixed hard particles ZTA ceramic particles do not undergo surface metallization pretreatment, but only do the ZTA ceramic particles undergo metallization pretreatment, so that the abrasion resistance of the composite material is reduced.
