In other words, (a) in the arc melting method, a large temperature gradient occurs between the vicinity of the mold and the center of the pool, so Ti segregates, and the Ti temperature is high at the outer periphery of the ingot, resulting in large crystal grains.

あることを第3発明とするものである。The present invention provides a method for producing a Nb-Ti alloy that solves the above-mentioned problems, and includes at least a step of mixing two types of raw materials, pure niobium and pure titanium, to form a mixture; a step of compressing to form a compressed body; a step of heating the compressed body to make a part of it into a semi-molten body; and a step of relatively rotating the semi-molten body part and the non-semi-molten body part; The first invention includes a step of moving the body part in a compressed body, cooling and solidifying the body part, and the second invention is that the relative rotational speed of the semi-molten body part and the non-semi-molten body part is 1100 rpm or more.
A third aspect of the present invention is that the solidification rate of the semi-molten portion is 1° C./min or more.
本発明は最近開発された半凝固加工法を応用したもので

ある。半凝固加工法により製造された合金は、偏析など
の欠陥がなく、結晶粒が微細化しているという特徴があ
る。The present invention applies a recently developed semi-solid processing method. In the semi-solid processing method, molten metal and solidified metal coexist and are mechanically stirred strongly to destroy the generated dendrites and create a slurry containing a mixture of metal particles and liquid. It is a method of making and molding it. Alloys manufactured using the semi-solid processing method are free from defects such as segregation and have fine grains.
上述のように、純ニオブと純チタンを混合して形成され
た圧縮体を加熱して部分的に半溶融体とし、半溶融体部
と非半溶融体部を相対的に回転させると、NbTiのス
ラリーが作られる。この際に、回転速度を1100rp
以上にすると結晶粒を1胴以下に微細化することができ
る。また、半溶融体部を移動させ、冷却する際に、冷却
速度をビC/min以上にすることにより、さらに結晶
粒を微細化することができる。この冷却速度を下部ると
粒は粗大化するが偏析は少ない状態となる。しかし結晶
粒の粗大化は後の加工性を阻害するため好ましくない。As mentioned above, when a compressed body formed by mixing pure niobium and pure titanium is heated to partially become a semi-molten body, and the semi-molten body part and the non-semi-molten body part are relatively rotated, NbTi slurry is made. At this time, increase the rotation speed to 1100 rpm.
If the amount is above, the crystal grains can be made finer than one grain. In addition, when moving and cooling the semi-molten material, the crystal grains can be further refined by setting the cooling rate to at least BiC/min. When the cooling rate is lowered, the grains become coarser, but there is less segregation. However, coarsening of crystal grains is not preferable because it impairs subsequent workability.
