Description

Ultrahigh-strength-plasticity matched high-entropy alloy and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of metal materials, in particular to an ultrahigh-strength-plasticity matched high-entropy alloy and a preparation method thereof.
Background
The high-entropy alloy (HEA) has a plurality of elements and high content of each alloy element, so that the mixed entropy of the alloy is large, and the alloy elements tend to be arranged in a chaotic manner to form a simple body-centered cubic (BCC) or face-centered cubic (FCC) phase.
In recent years, strengthening of FCC type FeCoCrNi-based high-entropy alloys (i.e., multi-main element high-entropy alloys formed by using four metals of iron, cobalt, chromium and nickel as main elements, wherein the main matrix components are iron, cobalt, chromium and nickel, and the lattice type is face-centered cubic FCC lattice) has been widely studied. The results indicate that the formation of precipitates is promoted by doping with alloying elements and thermo-mechanical processing, which is very effective for strengthening such alloys. However, precipitates also tend to cause a decrease in ductility, which limits the alloy from achieving excellent tensile properties with the desired strength-ductility "trade-off".
The most commonly used alloying element in high entropy alloys is aluminum (Al) or titanium (Ti). The addition of these elements generally results in the formation of a geometrically closely packed phase (GCP phase, comprising a gamma '-Ni3Al phase, a eta-Ni 3Ti phase and an alpha-Ni 2AlTi phase being equal, wherein the gamma' -Ni3Al phase has a lattice type LI2 (ordered body-centered cubic lattice), a chemical composition of Ni3Al, a eta-Ni 3Ti phase has a lattice type of ordered closely packed hexagonal lattice, a chemical composition of Ni3Ti, and an alpha-Ni 2AlTi phase having a lattice type of face-centered cubic structure, and a chemical composition of Ni2 AlTi). The crystal lattice of these phases is consistent with the matrix phase. The Zhaoping Lu et al study showed that low lattice mismatch reduced the nucleation barrier of the precipitated phase, allowing the nano-precipitated phase to be generated and stabilized. By optimizing the Al and Ti concentrations, nanoscale coherent LI 2-gamma '-phase (gamma' -LI2-Ni3Al phase, its lattice type is LI2 (ordered body-centered cubic lattice), its chemical composition is Ni3Al, it is a precipitate phase, it is distributed in the matrix of the alloy) particles precipitate in CoCrFeNi-based high entropy alloys. The fine coherent precipitate phase contributes to the enhancement of the strength-ductility synergy. For example, LI 2-type nanoparticle-reinforced (FeCoNi) 86-Al7Ti7 HEA (i.e., reinforced by gamma' -LI2-Ni3Al phase, which has a lattice coherent relationship with the matrix, is a high-entropy alloy that not only enhances strength, but also does not adversely affect plasticity) can have a yield strength of about 1.0GPa and a ductility of about 50%. The formation of LI 2-gamma prime nano-precipitates provides a prominent contribution to the strengthening of the high entropy alloy, resulting in a combination of good strength and ductility, where Ti plays a key role in gamma prime phase (i.e. gamma' -LI2-Ni3Al phase) precipitation, while Al increases the stability of the gamma prime phase.
Recently, some small atomic radius alloying elements, represented by molybdenum (Mo), have been used to strengthen HEA. Mo addition can produce different types of topologically close-packed phases (TCP phases including sigma phase, mu phase and Laves equal) depending on their doping content and heat treatment parameters. Unlike nickel-based superalloys, these phases in FCC-HEA can effectively strengthen the alloy without producing severe brittleness. This is because solid solution FCC matrices generally exhibit very high plasticity and remain somewhat ductile after precipitation strengthening. The results show that the sigma and mu phases precipitated in cocrfenimo0.3 HEA by thermo-mechanical processing effectively strengthen the alloy, resulting in good bond with tensile strength of 1.2GPa and elongation of 19%. In addition to Mo, HEA can be strengthened by adding elements such as niobium (Nb), manganese (Mn), and vanadium (V) to produce a TCP precipitate phase. Interestingly, the addition of Nb can form TCP in HEA while promoting the formation of geometrically closely packed phases of γ ', γ' and epsilon. However, nb does not fully exert its effect in terms of strengthening the strength-ductility synergistic effect. The tensile yield strength is generally lower than 1000MPa, and the tensile elongation is higher (15-55%).
In order to effectively strengthen FeCoCrNi HEA (namely the Fe-Cr-Co-Ni-based high-entropy alloy), the tissue design has important significance. A strategy for optimizing precipitation and introducing non-uniform microstructures by thermo-mechanical processing is proposed. The eutectic AlCoCrFeNi2.1 alloy with a non-uniform structure can achieve a tensile yield strength of about 1800MPa and an elongation of about 5% by cold rolling and warm rolling treatments. This increase in strength relies on dislocation strengthening and precipitation strengthening, exhibiting unprecedented strength-plastic matching.
Although the tensile properties described above have a good strength-plastic match, their low elongation, negative strain hardening and the difficult mass production limitations make them difficult to apply to practical industrial structural materials.
However, heterogeneous microstructures may produce synergistic strengthening effects, which follow:
σ 0.2 =σ 1 +Δσ G +Δσ S +Δσ P +Δσ D (1)
wherein σ0.2 is the enhanced yield strength; σ1 is the original yield strength; Δσs, Δσg, Δσd, and Δσp represent solid solution strengthening, grain boundary hardening, dislocation strengthening, and precipitation strengthening, respectively. After thermal mechanical processing, the high-entropy alloy can obtain a non-uniform microstructure, and has excellent strengthening effect.
Thus, obtaining a CoCrFeNi-based high entropy alloy with excellent combinations of strength and ductility remains a challenge in the research field. In practice, it is important that the high entropy alloys produced have sufficiently high strength, ductility and strain hardening rates.

After annealing and aging, recrystallized grains are well observed in the EBSD-IPF pattern (electron back-scattered-reverse polar pattern). KAM plot (Kernel Average Misorientation local orientation difference) shows that dislocation strain in recrystallized regions is reduced and recrystallized areas are smaller. Under SEM observation, as the annealing temperature increases, the recrystallized region expands, the shear band disappears, and the number of submicron sigma phase particles is maximized at 825 ℃, the annealing yield is increased to 850 ℃, and the content is reduced. Annealing at high temperature, EBSD pattern clearly shows recrystallized grains with very Gao Fendu rate due to more adequate recrystallization. KAM plots show a further reduction in dislocation strain, indicating that the alloy is more fully recrystallized after annealing at higher temperatures.
Fig. 2 to fig. 4 show tensile engineering stress-strain curves of the high-entropy alloys prepared in examples 1, 8 and 9, wherein the ordinate is stress and the abscissa is strain, and as shown in fig. 2 to fig. 4, the yield strengths of the high-entropy alloys in examples 1, 8 and 9 of the present application reach 1700MPa or more, the tensile strengths reach 2.0GPa or more, and the strength is high. Regarding plasticity, after the alloy is subjected to thermal mechanical treatment, certain plasticity is still reserved, so that certain engineering application can be met.
Comparing the three stress strain curves, it can be seen that the high-entropy alloy 1 subjected to water quenching after heat preservation at 800 ℃ for 30 minutes and air cooling aging treatment after heat preservation at 500 ℃ for 48 hours has the highest strength, the tensile strength is 2606MPa, the yield strength is 2486MPa, and the plasticity is lower than 3.5%.
The high-entropy alloy with the best plasticity is the high-entropy alloy 9 which is water quenched after being kept at 850 ℃ for 30 minutes, and the elongation percentage is 17.9 percent, but the yield strength is only 1138MPa. The alloy with better strong plastic bonding is the high-entropy alloy 8 which is water quenched after being preserved for 30 minutes at 825 ℃, the yield strength is 2221MPa, and the elongation percentage is 11.2%.
While the foregoing is directed to embodiments of the present application, other and further embodiments of the application may be devised without departing from the basic scope thereof, and the scope thereof is determined by the claims that follow.
