With the development of titanium alloy additive manufacturing research, a common problem exists in the titanium alloy additive manufacturing process, namely that in the manufacturing process, beta crystals form coarse columnar crystals with the height exceeding the thickness of a few deposition layers in an epitaxial growth mode, the coarse columnar crystals cause anisotropy of the performance of the deposition layers, and a phase transformation process forms a large-size lath-shaped alpha phase, so that the popularization and the application of the titanium alloy component are not facilitated.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to overcome the defects of the prior art and provides a method for promoting the transformation and the structure refinement of columnar crystal orientation equiaxed crystal in the additive manufacturing of titanium alloy.
In order to achieve the purpose, the method for promoting the transformation of columnar crystal orientation equiaxed crystal and the structure refinement in the additive manufacturing of the titanium alloy comprises the following steps:
before depositing each metal pass, uniformly coating a layer of micron-sized Fe element alcohol-based suspension on the surface of a position to be deposited, after an alcohol solvent is volatilized, performing metal deposition in the pass under the protective atmosphere of inert gas until the metal deposition in each pass is finished, and promoting the titanium alloy additive to manufacture columnar crystal-orientation equiaxial crystal transformation and form a superfine microstructure through Fe element.
The method specifically comprises the following steps:
1) Preparing ethanol suspension of micron-sized Fe element;
2) Uniformly coating the ethanol suspension of the micron-sized Fe element on the surface of a position to be deposited, and standing to volatilize ethanol;
3) Performing the metal deposition of the pass in the argon atmosphere, and then cooling to room temperature;
4) And repeating the step 2) and the step 3) until all metal deposition passes are finished.
The average size of Fe element in the micron-sized Fe element alcohol-based suspension is 5 mu m.
The mass percent Fe (wt)% =20 x wire feeding speed (m/s) ÷ scanning speed (m/s) × 100% of Fe element in the micron-sized Fe element alcohol-based suspension.
The Fe element enables large components generated at the solidification front of the titanium alloy to be supercooled, promotes the nucleation of the titanium alloy melt at the solidification front, causes nucleation particles generated at the solidification front of a molten pool to grow in a competitive growth mode, and forms isometric crystals in a sediment body.
The addition of Fe element results in the formation of ω -phase and TiFe-phase in the deposit.
The TiFe phase is generated by the eutectoid decomposition of beta phase and is dispersed in the sediment body.
When the beta phase is eutectoid decomposed, the TiFe phase grows before the alpha phase, the TiFe is used as nucleation mass point of the alpha phase to promote the generation of the nano-scale alpha phase, and the size of the alpha phase in the sediment body is nano-scale.
The shape of the primary beta crystal grains of the titanium alloy deposition layer added with the appropriate amount of the Fe element deposition body element is isometric crystal, and the average size is 50 mu m.
The invention has the following beneficial effects:
according to the method for promoting the transformation of columnar crystal to isometric crystal and the structure refinement of the titanium alloy additive manufacturing, during specific operation, the generation of isometric beta crystal is promoted by adding the micron-sized Fe element, and meanwhile, the deposition layer is promoted to form a superfine microstructure, and in addition, the effects of fine crystal strengthening, dispersion strengthening and solid solution strengthening in the deposition body after the Fe element is added are enhanced, so that the deposition body obtains excellent mechanical properties. Compared with the additive manufacturing Ti-6Al-4V alloy without adding Fe element, the size of beta crystal grains in the titanium alloy sediment body is about 50 mu m after adding proper amount of Fe, and the average hardness, yield strength, compressive strength and plastic deformation of the sediment body are respectively improved by 3.5%, 43%, 70% and 79%.
