  • the present invention relates to a titanium composite material, a manufacturing method thereof, and a package.
  • Titanium is a metal material with excellent corrosion resistance, and is used in heat exchangers using seawater, various chemical plants, and the like. Moreover, since the density is smaller than that of carbon steel and excellent in specific strength (strength per unit weight), it is often used in aircraft bodies. In addition, by using titanium material for land transportation equipment such as automobiles, the land transportation equipment itself is light and expected to improve fuel efficiency.
  • titanium materials are more complicated than steel materials and are manufactured through many processes.
  • a typical manufacturing process is illustrated below.
  • Smelting process Titanium oxide as a raw material is chlorinated to titanium tetrachloride, and then reduced with magnesium or sodium to form sponge-like (lumped) metal titanium (hereinafter referred to as “sponge titanium”).
  • Manufacturing process (2) Melting process: Titanium sponge is press-molded to form an electrode and melted in a vacuum arc melting furnace to produce an ingot.
  • Hot working process A slab or billet is heated and rolled or extruded hot to produce a plate or a round shape (hot rolled material) or billet (material such as hot extrusion or hot rolling) Steps for manufacturing bars, etc.
  • Cold working step Steps for producing thin plates, round bars, wires, etc. by further cold rolling and extruding plates and round bars.
  • Titanium material is very expensive because it is manufactured in many processes. For this reason, titanium materials are hardly applied to land transportation equipment such as automobiles. For this reason, in order to promote utilization of the titanium material, it is necessary to increase the productivity of the manufacturing process. In order to cope with this problem, efforts have been made to simplify the manufacturing process of the titanium material.
  • Patent Document 1 discloses a method for producing a titanium thin plate by forming a composition containing titanium powder, a binder, a plasticizer, and a solvent into a thin plate shape, drying, sintering, compacting, and re-sintering. . According to this method, the melting step, the forging step, the hot rolling step, and the cold rolling step can be omitted.
  • Patent Document 2 discloses a method of manufacturing a titanium alloy round bar by adding copper powder, chromium powder or iron powder to titanium alloy powder, enclosing it in a carbon steel capsule, heating and extruding it hot. It is disclosed. According to this method, since the melting step and the forging step can be omitted, the manufacturing cost can be reduced.
  • Patent Document 3 discloses a method of manufacturing a round bar by filling sponge titanium powder in a copper capsule, heating to 700 ° C. or lower, and performing a warm extrusion process. In this method, since the melting step and the forging step can be omitted, the manufacturing cost can be reduced.

Description

チタン複合材およびその製造方法、ならびに、梱包体Titanium composite material, method for producing the same, and package
 本発明は、チタン複合材およびその製造方法、ならびに、梱包体に関する。 The present invention relates to a titanium composite material, a manufacturing method thereof, and a package.
 チタン材は、耐食性に優れた金属材料であることから、海水を用いる熱交換器や各種の化学プラント等に用いられている。また、密度が炭素鋼に比べて小さく、比強度(単位重量あたりの強度)に優れることから、航空機の機体にも多く使用されている。また、自動車等の陸上輸送機器にチタン材を使用することにより、陸上輸送機器自体が軽量となり、燃費向上が期待される。 Titanium is a metal material with excellent corrosion resistance, and is used in heat exchangers using seawater, various chemical plants, and the like. Moreover, since the density is smaller than that of carbon steel and excellent in specific strength (strength per unit weight), it is often used in aircraft bodies. In addition, by using titanium material for land transportation equipment such as automobiles, the land transportation equipment itself is light and expected to improve fuel efficiency.
 しかし、チタン材は、鋼材に比べて複雑で非常に多くの工程を経て製造される。代表的な製造工程を以下に例示する。
 (1)製錬工程:原料である酸化チタンを塩素化して四塩化チタンとした後、マグネシウムあるいはナトリウムで還元することにより、海綿状(塊状)の金属チタン(以下、「スポンジチタン」という)を製造する工程
 (2)溶解工程:スポンジチタンをプレス成形して電極とし、真空アーク溶解炉で溶解して鋳塊を製造する工程
 (3)鍛造工程:鋳塊を熱間で鍛造してスラブ(熱間圧延素材)やビレット(熱間押出しや熱間圧延などの素材)などを製造する工程
 (4)熱間加工工程:スラブやビレットを加熱して熱間で圧延や押出しして板や丸棒などを製造する工程
 (5)冷間加工工程:板や丸棒をさらに冷間で圧延加工や押出しして薄板や丸棒、線などを製造する工程
However, titanium materials are more complicated than steel materials and are manufactured through many processes. A typical manufacturing process is illustrated below.
(1) Smelting process: Titanium oxide as a raw material is chlorinated to titanium tetrachloride, and then reduced with magnesium or sodium to form sponge-like (lumped) metal titanium (hereinafter referred to as “sponge titanium”). Manufacturing process (2) Melting process: Titanium sponge is press-molded to form an electrode and melted in a vacuum arc melting furnace to produce an ingot. (3) Forging process: The ingot is hot forged into a slab ( (4) Hot working process: A slab or billet is heated and rolled or extruded hot to produce a plate or a round shape (hot rolled material) or billet (material such as hot extrusion or hot rolling) Steps for manufacturing bars, etc. (5) Cold working step: Steps for producing thin plates, round bars, wires, etc. by further cold rolling and extruding plates and round bars.
 チタン材は、このように多くの工程により製造されるため、非常に高価である。このため、チタン材は自動車等の陸上輸送機器には殆ど適用されていない。このため、チタン材の利用を促進するためには、その製造工程の生産性を高める必要がある。この課題に対処するため、チタン材の製造工程を簡略化する取り組みがなされている。 Titanium material is very expensive because it is manufactured in many processes. For this reason, titanium materials are hardly applied to land transportation equipment such as automobiles. For this reason, in order to promote utilization of the titanium material, it is necessary to increase the productivity of the manufacturing process. In order to cope with this problem, efforts have been made to simplify the manufacturing process of the titanium material.
 特許文献1には、チタン粉、結着剤、可塑剤、溶剤を含む組成物を薄板状に成形、乾燥、焼結、圧密および再焼結してチタン薄板を製造する方法が開示されている。この方法によれば、上記溶解工程、鍛造工程、熱間圧延工程および冷間圧延工程を省略できる。 Patent Document 1 discloses a method for producing a titanium thin plate by forming a composition containing titanium powder, a binder, a plasticizer, and a solvent into a thin plate shape, drying, sintering, compacting, and re-sintering. . According to this method, the melting step, the forging step, the hot rolling step, and the cold rolling step can be omitted.
 特許文献2には、チタン合金粉に銅粉、クロム粉または鉄粉を添加して、炭素鋼製のカプセルに封入し、加熱して熱間で押出ししてチタン合金丸棒を製造する方法が開示されている。この方法によれば、上記溶解工程および鍛造工程を省略できるため、製造コストを下げることができる。 Patent Document 2 discloses a method of manufacturing a titanium alloy round bar by adding copper powder, chromium powder or iron powder to titanium alloy powder, enclosing it in a carbon steel capsule, heating and extruding it hot. It is disclosed. According to this method, since the melting step and the forging step can be omitted, the manufacturing cost can be reduced.
 特許文献3には、スポンジチタン粉を銅製カプセルに充填して、700℃以下に加熱して温間押出し加工を施して、丸棒を製造する方法が開示されている。この方法では、上記溶解工程および鍛造工程を省略できるため、製造コストを下げることができる。 Patent Document 3 discloses a method of manufacturing a round bar by filling sponge titanium powder in a copper capsule, heating to 700 ° C. or lower, and performing a warm extrusion process. In this method, since the melting step and the forging step can be omitted, the manufacturing cost can be reduced.
 また、従来から知られているパック圧延は、加工性の悪いチタン合金などのコア材を加工性の良い安価な炭素鋼などのカバー材で被覆して熱間圧延する方法である。例えば、コア材の表面に剥離剤を塗布した後、少なくともその上下2面をカバー材で被覆、あるいは上下面の他に4周面もカバー材で被覆して、合わせ目を溶接して密閉被覆箱を製作し、その内部を真空に引いて密閉してから熱間圧延する。 Further, conventionally known pack rolling is a method in which a core material such as a titanium alloy having poor workability is covered with a cover material such as inexpensive carbon steel having good workability and hot rolling is performed. For example, after the release agent is applied to the surface of the core material, at least two upper and lower surfaces thereof are covered with a cover material, or in addition to the upper and lower surfaces, four peripheral surfaces are also covered with a cover material, and a seam is welded and hermetically covered A box is manufactured, the inside of which is evacuated and sealed, and then hot rolled.
 パック圧延に関して、特許文献4には、密閉被覆箱の組立方法が開示され、特許文献5には、10-3torr(約0.133Pa)以上の真空度にしてカバー材を密封(パック)して密閉被覆箱を製造する方法が開示され、さらに、特許文献6には、炭素鋼(カバー材)で覆って、10-2torr(約1.33Pa)以下の真空下で高エネルギー密度溶接によって密封(パック)して、密閉被覆箱を製造する方法が開示されている。 With regard to pack rolling, Patent Document 4 discloses a method for assembling a hermetically sealed box, and Patent Document 5 discloses that a cover material is sealed (packed) at a vacuum degree of 10 −3 torr (about 0.133 Pa) or more. Further, a method for producing a hermetically sealed box is disclosed. Further, Patent Document 6 covers carbon steel (cover material) and performs high energy density welding under a vacuum of 10 −2 torr (about 1.33 Pa) or less. A method for producing a hermetically sealed box by sealing (packing) is disclosed.
 これらのパック圧延では、被圧延材であるコア材をカバー材で覆って熱間圧延するため、コア材の表面は冷えた媒体(大気やロール)に直接触れることがなく、コア材の温度低下を抑制できるため、加工性の悪いコア材でも薄板の製造が可能になる。 In these pack rolling, the core material, which is the material to be rolled, is covered with a cover material and hot-rolled, so the surface of the core material does not come into direct contact with the cold medium (air or roll), and the temperature of the core material decreases. Therefore, even a core material with poor workability can be manufactured.
 カバー材として、コア材と異なる材質で、加工性が良く安価な炭素鋼などを用いている。カバー材は熱間圧延後に不要となるため、コア材から分離し易くするために、コア材の表面には剥離剤が塗布される。 As the cover material, carbon steel, etc., which is different from the core material, has good workability and is inexpensive. Since the cover material becomes unnecessary after hot rolling, a release agent is applied to the surface of the core material in order to facilitate separation from the core material.

 特許文献1により開示された方法では、高価なチタン粉(平均粒子径が4~200μm)を原料として用いることや、焼結や圧密などの多くの工程が必要であるため、得られたチタン薄板は非常に高価であり、チタン材の利用促進には至っていない。 In the method disclosed in Patent Document 1, an expensive titanium powder (average particle size of 4 to 200 μm) is used as a raw material, and many processes such as sintering and compaction are required. Is very expensive and has not yet promoted the use of titanium.
 特許文献2により開示された方法では、高価なチタン粉合金を原料として使用するため、得られたチタン合金丸棒は高価であり、チタン材の利用促進には至っていない。しかも、加熱した際にスポンジチタン粉が酸化されるため、得られた丸棒は表層や内部に酸化チタンを含み、通常工程で製造した丸棒に比べて、外観が変色し、引張特性が劣る等の問題がある。 In the method disclosed in Patent Document 2, since an expensive titanium powder alloy is used as a raw material, the obtained titanium alloy round bar is expensive, and the use of titanium material has not been promoted. Moreover, since the titanium sponge powder is oxidized when heated, the obtained round bar contains titanium oxide in the surface layer and inside, and the appearance changes in color and the tensile properties are inferior compared to the round bar produced in the normal process. There are problems such as.
 特許文献3により開示された方法では、加熱した際にスポンジチタン粉が酸化されるため、得られる丸棒は表層および内部に酸化チタンを含み、通常工程で製造した丸棒に比べて、外観が変色し、引張特性が劣る等の問題がある。 In the method disclosed in Patent Document 3, since the sponge titanium powder is oxidized when heated, the resulting round bar contains titanium oxide in the surface layer and the inside, and the appearance is larger than that of a round bar manufactured in a normal process. There are problems such as discoloration and poor tensile properties.
 さらに、特許文献4~6により開示された方法は、パック圧延のように圧延後にカバー材を剥がして廃却するため、製造コストが通常の工程よりも高くなり、得られたチタン材は、高コストであることに変わりがない。 Furthermore, since the methods disclosed in Patent Documents 4 to 6 are stripped and discarded after rolling as in pack rolling, the manufacturing cost is higher than that in a normal process, and the obtained titanium material has a high The cost remains the same.
 このため、チタン材は、自動車などの陸上輸送機器に適用されるまでには至っていない。 For this reason, titanium materials have not yet been applied to land transportation equipment such as automobiles.
 本発明は、このような実情に鑑み、低コストでチタン板やチタン丸棒などのチタン材を提供することを目的とする。 In view of such circumstances, an object of the present invention is to provide a titanium material such as a titanium plate or a titanium round bar at a low cost.
 本発明者らは、上記課題を解決するために溶解工程と鍛造工程を省略してチタン材を製造できる手段を鋭意検討し、以下に列記の知見(A)~(F)を得て、本発明を完成した。 In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present inventors diligently studied means for producing a titanium material by omitting the melting step and the forging step, and obtained the knowledge (A) to (F) listed below. Completed the invention.
 (A)高価なチタン粉やスポンジチタン粉のような粉末ではなく、不定形で海綿状(塊状)のスポンジチタンを原料として使用する。海綿状のスポンジチタンは、従来から製造されているため、比較的安価に入手できる。また、スポンジチタンは製錬工程において鉄や塩素等の主な不純物が除去されているため、スポンジチタンからチタン材を直接製造しても、化学組成上の問題はない。また、製品にはならない端材等のチタン材(以下、「チタンスクラップ」という。)は、比較的安価に入手することができる。ただし、チタンスクラップは不定形であるため、直接加工してチタン材を製造することはできない。 (A) Instead of powder such as expensive titanium powder or sponge titanium powder, amorphous and sponge-like (lumped) sponge titanium is used as a raw material. Since sponge-like sponge titanium has been conventionally produced, it can be obtained at a relatively low cost. In addition, since titanium sponge has main impurities such as iron and chlorine removed in the smelting process, there is no problem in chemical composition even if a titanium material is directly produced from sponge titanium. Moreover, titanium materials (hereinafter referred to as “titanium scrap”) such as mill ends that cannot be manufactured can be obtained at a relatively low cost. However, since titanium scrap is indefinite, it cannot be directly processed to produce a titanium material.
 (B)工業用純チタン材やチタン合金材を用いて作製した容器(以下、「梱包材」という。)に、スポンジチタンなどの充填材を収容して密閉したチタン梱包体であれば、熱間加工した際に、表面割れやヘゲ状等の表面欠陥の発生を抑制できる。特に、充填材の化学組成を純チタン材と同種のものにすることによって、従来のパック圧延のように圧延後にカバー材を剥がして廃却する必要はなく、チタン梱包材を、熱間加工後にもそのままチタン複合材(製品)の一部として有効に利用できる。 (B) If it is a titanium package that contains a filler such as sponge titanium in a container (hereinafter referred to as “packaging material”) manufactured using a pure industrial titanium material or a titanium alloy material, Generation of surface defects such as surface cracks and shavings can be suppressed during the hot working. In particular, by making the chemical composition of the filler the same type as that of pure titanium material, it is not necessary to peel off and discard the cover material after rolling as in conventional pack rolling. Can also be used effectively as part of a titanium composite (product).
 (C)熱間加工前に加熱した際に、スポンジチタンなどの充填材が酸化しないように、また、熱間加工時に充填材間や充填材と梱包材の間にある空隙が減少し易いように、梱包材の内圧を極力減圧しておくことが重要である。 (C) When heated before hot working, fillers such as sponge titanium are not oxidized, and gaps between fillers and between fillers and packing materials are likely to be reduced during hot working. In addition, it is important to reduce the internal pressure of the packing material as much as possible.
 (D)梱包材に収容する充填材として、スポンジチタンなどのチタン材とともに、炭素、炭化物、窒化物および酸化物から選択される1種以上の粉末を充填することにより、チタン複合材の引張強度を高めることができる。 (D) Tensile strength of titanium composite material by filling one or more powders selected from carbon, carbide, nitride and oxide with a titanium material such as sponge titanium as a filler to be contained in the packing material Can be increased.
 (E)すなわち、工業用純チタンの展伸材であるチタン梱包材の内部に、スポンジチタンと、チタン複合材の引張強度を高めることができる炭素、炭化物、窒化物および酸化物から選択される1種以上の粉末とを充填および封入し、内部を減圧してチタン梱包体とし、このチタン梱包体に熱間加工を行い、必要に応じてさらに冷間加工も行ってチタン複合材とすることにより、熱間加工前にはチタン塊の集合であったチタン梱包体が、熱間加工後には全体として圧縮成形されて一体化したチタン複合材(三層のクラッド材)となる。 (E) That is, selected from carbon, carbide, nitride, and oxide that can increase the tensile strength of titanium sponge and titanium composite material in the titanium packing material that is an expanded material of industrial pure titanium Fill and enclose one or more powders, depressurize the inside to form a titanium package, perform hot working on this titanium package, and further cold work as necessary to obtain a titanium composite. Thus, the titanium package, which is a collection of titanium ingots before hot working, becomes a titanium composite material (three-layer clad material) that is compressed and integrated as a whole after hot working.
 (F)チタン複合材は、内層部のみがチタン複合材の引張強度を高めることができる炭化物、窒化物および酸化物から選択される1種以上のチタン化合物を含有するチタンの圧縮成形体であるが、表層部は工業用純チタンまたはチタン合金材の展伸材であるため、優れた加工性と高い引張強度を有するとともに、従来の溶解工程や鍛造工程を経ずに製造できるために製造コストを大幅に低減できる。 (F) The titanium composite is a compression-molded body of titanium containing only one or more titanium compounds selected from carbides, nitrides and oxides whose only inner layer portion can increase the tensile strength of the titanium composite. However, since the surface layer is a wrought material of industrial pure titanium or titanium alloy material, it has excellent workability and high tensile strength, and can be manufactured without the conventional melting process and forging process. Can be greatly reduced.

(A) Surface layer parts 2, 3
(A-1) Chemical composition of the surface layer portions 2 and 3 As the industrial pure titanium material forming the surface layer portions 2 and 3, an industrial pure titanium material having a chemical composition belonging to any of JIS 1-4 can be used. . For example, the surface layer portions 2 and 3 are: C: 0.08% or less, H: 0.013% or less, O: 0.4% or less, N: 0.05% or less, Fe: 0.5% or less, the balance It has a chemical composition of Ti and impurities.

 α+β型チタン合金としては、例えば、Ti-6Al-4V、Ti-6Al-6V-2Sn、Ti-6Al-7V、Ti-3Al-5V、Ti-5Al-2Sn-2Zr-4Mo-4Cr、Ti-6Al-2Sn-4Zr-6Mo、Ti-1Fe-0.35O、Ti-1.5Fe-0.5O、Ti-5Al-1Fe、Ti-5Al-1Fe-0.3Si、Ti-5Al-2Fe、Ti-5Al-2Fe-0.3Si、Ti-5Al-2Fe-3Mo、Ti-4.5Al-2Fe-2V-3Moなどがある。 Examples of α + β type titanium alloys include Ti-6Al-4V, Ti-6Al-6V-2Sn, Ti-6Al-7V, Ti-3Al-5V, Ti-5Al-2Sn-2Zr-4Mo-4Cr, Ti-6Al. -2Sn-4Zr-6Mo, Ti-1Fe-0.35O, Ti-1.5Fe-0.5O, Ti-5Al-1Fe, Ti-5Al-1Fe-0.3Si, Ti-5Al-2Fe, Ti-5Al -2Fe-0.3Si, Ti-5Al-2Fe-3Mo, Ti-4.5Al-2Fe-2V-3Mo, and the like.
 さらに、β型チタン合金としては、例えば、Ti-11.5Mo-6Zr-4.5Sn、Ti-8V-3Al-6Cr-4Mo-4Zr、Ti-10V-2Fe-3Mo、Ti-13V-11Cr-3Al、Ti-15V-3Al-3Cr-3Sn、Ti-6.8Mo-4.5Fe-1.5Al、Ti-20V-4Al-1Sn、Ti-22V-4Alなどがある。 Further, as the β-type titanium alloy, for example, Ti-11.5Mo-6Zr-4.5Sn, Ti-8V-3Al-6Cr-4Mo-4Zr, Ti-10V-2Fe-3Mo, Ti-13V-11Cr-3Al Ti-15V-3Al-3Cr-3Sn, Ti-6.8Mo-4.5Fe-1.5Al, Ti-20V-4Al-1Sn, Ti-22V-4Al, and the like.
 (a-2)表層部2,3の厚さ
 チタン複合材1は、表層部2,3の厚さが厚過ぎると、内層部4の厚さが薄くなるため、機械的特性向上効果を十分に得られない。このため、表層部2,3の厚さは、好ましくは、チタン複合材1の全厚さに対して片面当たり40%以下であり、さらに好ましくは、片面当たり25%以下である。
(A-2) Thickness of the surface layer portions 2 and 3 In the titanium composite material 1, if the thickness of the surface layer portions 2 and 3 is too thick, the thickness of the inner layer portion 4 is reduced, so that the effect of improving the mechanical characteristics is sufficiently obtained. I can't get it. For this reason, the thickness of the surface layer portions 2 and 3 is preferably 40% or less per side with respect to the total thickness of the titanium composite 1, and more preferably 25% or less per side.
 一方、表層部2,3が薄い場合は、内層部4の厚さが厚くなるため、機械的特性向上効果は向上する。しかし、表層部2,3が薄過ぎるとチタン複合材1を加工する際に、表層部2,3が割れて内層部4が表面に現れ、内層部4にあるチタン化合物が脱落したり、表面に現れたチタン化合物が起点となって表面割れや端部割れが発生する。また、水等の液体が接すると、内層部4にその液体が侵入するという問題が発生する。このため、表層部2,3の厚さは、0.1mm以上とするのが好ましい。 On the other hand, when the surface layer portions 2 and 3 are thin, the thickness of the inner layer portion 4 is increased, so that the mechanical property improving effect is improved. However, when the surface layer portions 2 and 3 are too thin, when the titanium composite material 1 is processed, the surface layer portions 2 and 3 are cracked and the inner layer portion 4 appears on the surface, and the titanium compound in the inner layer portion 4 falls off, Surface cracks and edge cracks occur with the titanium compound appearing in Further, when a liquid such as water comes into contact with the liquid, the problem that the liquid enters the inner layer portion 4 occurs. For this reason, it is preferable that the thickness of the surface layer portions 2 and 3 is 0.1 mm or more.
 (b)内層部4
 内層部4は、チタン41にチタン化合物42が分散しており、前記チタン化合物の周囲にそれぞれの構成元素(すなわち、炭化物の周囲に炭素、窒化物の周囲に窒素、または酸化物の周囲に酸素)が拡散した部分(図示省略)を備え、面積率で、0%超30%以下の空隙43を有する。
(B) Inner layer part 4
In the inner layer portion 4, a titanium compound 42 is dispersed in titanium 41, and each constituent element (that is, carbon around a carbide, nitrogen around a nitride, or oxygen around an oxide) around the titanium compound. ) Are diffused (not shown), and have a void 43 that is greater than 0% and not more than 30% in terms of area ratio.
 (b-1)内層部4の化学組成
 チタン複合材1の内層部4を構成するチタンとしては、例えば、JIS1種~JIS4種の工業用純チタンを用いることができる。すなわち、一般的な不純物として、C:0.08%以下、H:0.013%以下、O:0.4%以下、N:0.05%以下、Fe:0.5%以下、残部がTiである工業用純チタンである。
(B-1) Chemical composition of the inner layer part 4 As the titanium constituting the inner layer part 4 of the titanium composite material 1, for example, JIS class 1 to JIS class 4 industrial pure titanium can be used. That is, as general impurities, C: 0.08% or less, H: 0.013% or less, O: 0.4% or less, N: 0.05% or less, Fe: 0.5% or less, and the balance It is an industrial pure titanium which is Ti.
 特に、JIS1~3種の工業用純チタンを使用すれば、十分な加工性を有しており、割れなどが発生せず、熱間加工後に上述の表層部2,3をなす工業用純チタンと一体化したチタン複合材1を得られる。 In particular, the use of JIS 1 to 3 types of industrial pure titanium has sufficient workability, does not generate cracks, etc., and industrial pure titanium that forms the above-mentioned surface portions 2 and 3 after hot working. And the titanium composite material 1 integrated.
 上記以外の残部は不純物である。不純物としては、加工性および機械的特性向上効果を減殺しない範囲で含有することができる。上記以外の不純物は、主にスクラップから混入する不純物元素として、Al,V,Cr,Nb,Si,Sn,MoおよびCu等があり、一般的な不純物元素(C,N,Fe,O,H)と併せて、総量で5%以下許容される。 The remainder other than the above is impurities. As an impurity, it can contain in the range which does not reduce processability and a mechanical characteristic improvement effect. Impurities other than the above include Al, V, Cr, Nb, Si, Sn, Mo, Cu, and the like as impurity elements mainly mixed from scrap, and general impurity elements (C, N, Fe, O, H, etc.) In addition, a total amount of 5% or less is allowed.
 内層部4は、チタン複合材1に良好な機械的特性を具備させるため、チタンに炭化物、窒化物および酸化物から選択される1種以上のチタン化合物が分散しているものを用いる。内層部4においては、上記の効果を得るために、炭素、窒素および酸素の平均含有量の合計が0.05~2.0質量%であることが好ましい。それぞれの元素の平均含有量の好ましい範囲と限定理由を述べる。 The inner layer portion 4 is made of a material in which one or more titanium compounds selected from carbides, nitrides and oxides are dispersed in titanium in order to make the titanium composite 1 have good mechanical properties. In the inner layer part 4, in order to obtain the above effect, the total of the average contents of carbon, nitrogen and oxygen is preferably 0.05 to 2.0% by mass. The preferable range of the average content of each element and the reason for limitation will be described.
 [C:0.001~0.1%]
 Cは、その平均濃度が0.001%未満であると、表層部2,3よりも内層部4の強度を高める効果が殆ど認められず、チタン複合材1の機械的特性を向上できない。一方、Cの平均濃度が0.1%を超えると、内層部4の靭性を劣化させ、熱間加工や冷間加工時に割れが多発して、内層部4の板厚方向が分断、剥離して、チタン複合材1としての形状を維持できない可能性がある。このため、内層部4のCの平均濃度は、0.001~0.1%とするのが好ましい。
[C: 0.001 to 0.1%]
If the average concentration of C is less than 0.001%, the effect of increasing the strength of the inner layer portion 4 over the surface layer portions 2 and 3 is hardly recognized, and the mechanical properties of the titanium composite material 1 cannot be improved. On the other hand, if the average concentration of C exceeds 0.1%, the toughness of the inner layer part 4 is deteriorated, cracks frequently occur during hot working or cold working, and the thickness direction of the inner layer part 4 is divided and peeled off. Thus, the shape of the titanium composite material 1 may not be maintained. Therefore, the average concentration of C in the inner layer portion 4 is preferably 0.001 to 0.1%.
 [N:0.001~0.5%]
 Nは、その平均濃度が0.001%未満であると、表層部2,3よりも内層部4の強度を高める効果が殆ど認められず、チタン複合材1の特性を向上できない。一方、Nの平均濃度が0.5%を超えると、内層部4の靭性を劣化させ、熱間加工や冷間加工時に割れが多発して、内層部4の板厚方向が分断、剥離して、チタン複合材1としての形状を維持できない可能性がある。このため、内層部4のNの平均濃度は、0.001~0.5%とするのが好ましい。
[N: 0.001 to 0.5%]
When the average concentration of N is less than 0.001%, the effect of increasing the strength of the inner layer portion 4 over the surface layer portions 2 and 3 is hardly recognized, and the characteristics of the titanium composite material 1 cannot be improved. On the other hand, if the average concentration of N exceeds 0.5%, the toughness of the inner layer portion 4 is deteriorated, cracks frequently occur during hot working or cold working, and the thickness direction of the inner layer portion 4 is divided and peeled off. Thus, the shape of the titanium composite material 1 may not be maintained. Therefore, the average concentration of N in the inner layer portion 4 is preferably 0.001 to 0.5%.
 [O:0.01~1.0%]
 Oは、その平均濃度が0.01%未満であると、表層部2,3よりも内層部4の強度を高める効果を殆ど認められず、チタン複合材1の特性を向上できない。一方、Oの平均濃度が1.0%を超えると、内層部4の靭性を劣化させ、熱間加工や冷間加工時に割れが多発して、内層部4の板厚方向が分断、剥離して、チタン複合材1としての形状を維持できない可能性がある。このため、内層部4のOの平均濃度は、0.01~1.0%とするのが好ましい。
[O: 0.01 to 1.0%]
If the average concentration of O is less than 0.01%, the effect of increasing the strength of the inner layer portion 4 over the surface layer portions 2 and 3 is hardly recognized, and the characteristics of the titanium composite material 1 cannot be improved. On the other hand, when the average concentration of O exceeds 1.0%, the toughness of the inner layer portion 4 is deteriorated, cracks frequently occur during hot working or cold working, and the thickness direction of the inner layer portion 4 is divided and peeled off. Thus, the shape of the titanium composite material 1 may not be maintained. Therefore, the average concentration of O in the inner layer portion 4 is preferably 0.01 to 1.0%.
 表層部および内層部の成分分析は、公知の方法(例えば、JIS H 1612(1993)、JIS H 1614(1995)、JIS H 1615(1997)、JIS H 1617(1995)、JIS H 1619(2012)、JIS H 1620(1995))により求める。なお、この際、チタン複合材から表層部および内層部をそれぞれ切り出してから測定を行う。表層部は切削等で加工して得た切粉等から、内層部は表層削除後の残材から分析試料を採取して分析するのが効率的である。分析試料は、表層部、内層部の板厚方向の中心部から0.5g以上を採取する。表層部または内層部の厚さが薄く十分な量の切粉を得られない場合には、チタン複合材の全体の成分分析を行いその分析値と、表層部または内層部のいずれかの分析値と、それぞれの板厚から、表層または内層部の成分を算出(逆算)してもよい。 Component analysis of the surface layer portion and the inner layer portion is performed by a known method (for example, JIS H 1612 (1993), JIS H 1614 (1995), JIS H 1615 (1997), JIS H 1617 (1995), JIS H 1619 (2012). , JIS H 1620 (1995)). At this time, measurement is performed after cutting out the surface layer portion and the inner layer portion from the titanium composite material. It is efficient to collect and analyze an analysis sample from a chip obtained by machining the surface layer portion and the inner layer portion from the remaining material after the surface layer is deleted. As an analysis sample, 0.5 g or more is collected from the center portion in the thickness direction of the surface layer portion and the inner layer portion. If the surface layer or inner layer is thin and a sufficient amount of chips cannot be obtained, analyze the entire composition of the titanium composite and its analysis value and either the surface layer or inner layer analysis value And the component of the surface layer or the inner layer part may be calculated (reverse calculation) from each plate thickness.
 (b-2)内層部4の空隙率
 チタン複合材1の空隙43の空隙率が多過ぎると、バルク金属としての機械的特性(強度や延性)が得られない。一方、空隙43は少ないほど望ましいが、空隙を完全に圧着させるためには、大圧下が必要となる。その結果、製造されるチタン複合材1の形状(厚さ)が制限され、さらには、製造コストが嵩む。
(B-2) Porosity of the inner layer portion 4 If the porosity of the void 43 of the titanium composite material 1 is too large, mechanical properties (strength and ductility) as a bulk metal cannot be obtained. On the other hand, the smaller the gap 43, the better. However, in order to completely press the gap, a large pressure is required. As a result, the shape (thickness) of the titanium composite material 1 to be manufactured is limited, and the manufacturing cost increases.
 一方、チタン複合材1としての構造を維持するのに十分な機械的特性(強度や延性など)を有する程度に空隙43が含有される場合には、内層部4の密度が低くなり、チタン複合材1の軽量化を図ることができる。 On the other hand, when the voids 43 are contained to such an extent that the mechanical properties (strength, ductility, etc.) sufficient to maintain the structure as the titanium composite material 1 are contained, the density of the inner layer portion 4 becomes low, and the titanium composite The weight of the material 1 can be reduced.
 以上のように、バルク金属としての機械的特性が重要な場合には空隙率を低くし、一方、チタン複合材1の軽量化を優先する場合には、空隙率を高くする。このように、用途に応じて、空隙率を選択することが可能である。この際の空隙率の範囲は、0%超30%以下であることが好ましく、0%超10%以下がより好ましい。なお、空隙率を10%以下とすることにより、一般的な工業用純チタンと遜色のない機械的特性を具備することができる。 As described above, when the mechanical properties as a bulk metal are important, the porosity is lowered. On the other hand, when the weight reduction of the titanium composite 1 is prioritized, the porosity is increased. Thus, the porosity can be selected according to the application. In this case, the range of the porosity is preferably more than 0% and 30% or less, more preferably more than 0% and 10% or less. In addition, by setting the porosity to 10% or less, it is possible to have mechanical characteristics comparable to general industrial pure titanium.
 チタン複合材1の内層部4に残存する空隙43の割合(空隙率)は、次のように算出される。チタン複合材1の長さ方向(圧延方向)に平行な厚さ断面が観察できるように樹脂に埋め込んだ後、ダイヤモンドまたはアルミナ研濁液を用いて観察面を研磨し(鏡面化仕上げ)、観察用試料に仕上げる。 The ratio (void ratio) of the voids 43 remaining in the inner layer portion 4 of the titanium composite material 1 is calculated as follows. After embedding in the resin so that a cross section with a thickness parallel to the length direction (rolling direction) of the titanium composite material 1 can be observed, the observation surface is polished with a diamond or alumina suspension (mirror finish) and observed. Finish the sample.
 この鏡面化仕上げを行った観察用試料は、光学顕微鏡で異なる位置の20か所の厚さ中心部について、撮影される。ここで、中心部とは、チタン複合材1が板の場合は、板厚中心であり、丸棒の場合は円断面の中心である。その光学顕微鏡写真にて観察される空隙43の面積割合を測定して、20枚の写真の空隙率の値を平均した結果を空隙率として算出する。 The observation sample that has been subjected to the mirror finish is photographed at 20 thickness centers at different positions with an optical microscope. Here, the center portion is the thickness center when the titanium composite material 1 is a plate, and the center of the circular cross section when the titanium composite material 1 is a round bar. The area ratio of the voids 43 observed in the optical micrograph is measured, and the result of averaging the porosity values of the 20 photographs is calculated as the void ratio.
 なお、光学顕微鏡で組織写真を撮影する際には、チタン複合材1の空隙の大きさ、または空隙率に応じて適正な倍率を選択する。例えば、空隙率が1%以下の場合は、空隙が小さいので、500倍程度の高倍率で観察して、写真撮影を行うのが好ましい。空隙率が10%以上の場合は、大きな空隙が多くなるので、20倍程度の低倍率で観察を行い、写真撮影を行うのが好ましい。また、空隙が小さくなるような空隙率が1%以下の場合、偏光観察が可能な微分干渉顕微鏡を用いることにより、通常の光学顕微鏡よりもより明瞭に観察することができる。 In addition, when taking a structure | tissue photograph with an optical microscope, a suitable magnification is selected according to the magnitude | size of the space | gap of the titanium composite 1, or the porosity. For example, when the porosity is 1% or less, since the void is small, it is preferable to take a picture while observing at a high magnification of about 500 times. When the porosity is 10% or more, there are many large voids, so it is preferable to perform photography at a low magnification of about 20 times. Further, when the void ratio is 1% or less so that the voids become small, it is possible to observe more clearly than a normal optical microscope by using a differential interference microscope capable of observing polarized light.
 (b-3)内層部4の組織
 図1に示すように、チタン複合材1中の内層部4には、チタン化合物42が多く含まれている。このチタン化合物42は、チタン複合材1の製造過程における熱間加工などにより、チタン化合物42の周囲にそれぞれの構成元素(すなわち、炭化物の周囲に炭素、窒化物の周囲に窒素、または酸化物の周囲に酸素)がチタン41に拡散するが、チタン41に固溶できないそれぞれの構成元素は、チタン化合物42としてチタン材41に分散した状態で残存する。このとき、チタン化合物42は、加工(圧延)方向に並び、筋状化合物集合体42aを構成している。また、チタン化合物42は、完全に化合物を形成しているもののほか、内部に炭素が存在している化合物を含む。例えば、チタン化合物の素材として炭素を用いた場合、熱間圧延等の製造過程において炭素がチタンと反応してチタン化合物を形成するが、そのチタン化合物の内部にチタンと反応しきれなかった炭素が残存することがある。
(B-3) Structure of Inner Layer Part 4 As shown in FIG. 1, the inner layer part 4 in the titanium composite 1 contains a large amount of the titanium compound 42. The titanium compound 42 is made of each constituent element (that is, carbon around the carbide, nitrogen around the nitride, nitrogen, or oxide) around the titanium compound 42 by hot working or the like in the manufacturing process of the titanium composite 1. Each constituent element that cannot be dissolved in the titanium 41 remains as a titanium compound 42 in a dispersed state in the titanium material 41. At this time, the titanium compound 42 is aligned in the processing (rolling) direction and constitutes a streak-like compound aggregate 42a. Moreover, the titanium compound 42 includes a compound in which carbon is present in addition to a compound that completely forms a compound. For example, when carbon is used as a material for a titanium compound, carbon reacts with titanium in a manufacturing process such as hot rolling to form a titanium compound, but the carbon that has not reacted with titanium inside the titanium compound. May remain.
 (b-3-1)チタン化合物の形状
 図2は、筋状化合物集合体42aを模式的に示す図である。図2に示すように、筋状化合物集合体42aは、チタン化合物42の粒の中心間距離を圧延方向に投影した距離D(以下、「粒子間距離」という。)が20μm以下である複数のチタン化合物42の集合体を意味する。なお、本明細書において、粒子間距離が20μmを超える場合には別の筋状化合物集合体として扱う。
(B-3-1) Shape of Titanium Compound FIG. 2 is a diagram schematically showing the streak compound aggregate 42a. As shown in FIG. 2, the streak-like compound aggregate 42a has a plurality of distances D (hereinafter referred to as “inter-particle distances”) obtained by projecting the distance between the centers of the grains of the titanium compound 42 in the rolling direction to 20 μm or less. An aggregate of titanium compounds 42 is meant. In the present specification, when the interparticle distance exceeds 20 μm, it is treated as another streak compound aggregate.
 筋状化合物集合体42aは、その厚さt(すなわち、圧縮加工方向の大きさ。)が100μm以下であることが好ましい。この厚さが100μmを超えると、チタン複合材を加工する際に、チタン化合物42を起点に割れが発生する可能性が大きくなるからである。一方、筋状化合物集合体42aは、その長さL(すなわち、加工方向の大きさ)は、厚さ方向の大きさ(厚さ)tの2.0倍以上(すなわち、L/t≧2.0)であることが好ましく、3.0倍以上(すなわち、L/t≧3.0)であることがより好ましい。長さLが小さいと、引張応力を受けた際に、このチタン化合物を起点に内層部が破断しやすくなるからである。なお、L/t≦100とするのが好ましく、L/t≦40とするのがより好ましい。 It is preferable that the thickness t (that is, the size in the compression processing direction) of the streak compound aggregate 42a is 100 μm or less. This is because when the thickness exceeds 100 μm, the possibility of cracking starting from the titanium compound 42 increases when the titanium composite material is processed. On the other hand, the length L (that is, the size in the processing direction) of the streak compound aggregate 42a is 2.0 times or more the thickness (the thickness) t in the thickness direction (that is, L / t ≧ 2). 0.0), more preferably 3.0 times or more (that is, L / t ≧ 3.0). This is because when the length L is small, the inner layer portion is likely to be broken starting from this titanium compound when subjected to tensile stress. Note that L / t ≦ 100 is preferable, and L / t ≦ 40 is more preferable.
 筋状化合物集合体42aの大きさ(長さLおよび厚さt)は、次のように算出される。チタン複合材1の長さ方向(圧延方向)および厚さ方向に平行な断面(厚さ断面)を観察面とするように樹脂に埋め込んだ後、ダイヤモンドまたはアルミナ研濁液を用いて観察面を研磨して観察用試料に仕上げる。 The size (length L and thickness t) of the streak-like compound aggregate 42a is calculated as follows. After embedding in the resin so that the cross section (thickness cross section) parallel to the length direction (rolling direction) and the thickness direction of the titanium composite 1 is the observation surface, the observation surface is formed using diamond or alumina suspension. Polish to finish the sample for observation.
 光学顕微鏡を用いて、上記観察面の厚さ中心部の異なる位置の20か所を写真撮影する。ここで、厚さ中心部は、チタン複合材1が板である場合は板厚中心部であり、丸棒である場合は円断面の中心である。得られた20枚の写真において、筋状化合物集合体42aの長さLと厚さtを測定し、それぞれの値の平均値を長さLと厚さtとし、L/tを計算する。 Using an optical microscope, take pictures of 20 locations at different positions in the center of the thickness of the observation surface. Here, the thickness center portion is the plate thickness center portion when the titanium composite material 1 is a plate, and is the center of the circular cross section when the titanium composite material 1 is a round bar. In the obtained 20 photographs, the length L and the thickness t of the streak-like compound aggregate 42a are measured, and the average value of each value is taken as the length L and the thickness t, and L / t is calculated.
 (b-3-2)拡散層の存在
 チタン化合物42のそれぞれの粒の周囲には、それぞれの構成元素(すなわち、炭化物の場合は炭素、窒化物の場合は窒素、酸化物の場合は酸素)の拡散層が存在する。拡散層とは、内層部4のチタン41に分散したチタン化合物42において、その構成元素(炭素、窒素または酸素)がチタン化合物42を中心として周辺のチタン41に拡散し、濃度勾配が形成された層をいう。
(B-3-2) Presence of diffusion layer Around each grain of the titanium compound 42, each constituent element (that is, carbon for carbide, nitrogen for nitride, oxygen for oxide) There is a diffusion layer. The diffusion layer is a titanium compound 42 dispersed in titanium 41 in the inner layer portion 4, and its constituent elements (carbon, nitrogen or oxygen) diffuse into the surrounding titanium 41 with the titanium compound 42 as the center, and a concentration gradient is formed. Refers to the layer.
 図3は、チタン複合材1の長さ方向(圧延方向)および厚さ方向に平行な断面(厚さ断面)において、1つの粒の厚さ方向の距離とその周囲の構成元素濃度分布の概念を示した図である。拡散層は、チタン複合材1を製造する過程で、加熱保持された際(熱間圧延前の加熱、熱間圧延中、熱間圧延後の熱処理等)に、チタン化合物42の粒から周囲のチタン41に各構成元素が拡散してできた層である。図3に示すように、拡散層は、内層部4のチタン41に含まれている各構成元素の値よりも多く含まれている。この拡散層が存在することにより、内層部4のチタン化合物42の粒とチタン41が強固に結合する。このため、チタン複合材1を加工する際にチタン化合物42を起点に割れることがない。 FIG. 3 shows a concept of the distance in the thickness direction of one grain and the concentration distribution of constituent elements around it in a cross section (thickness cross section) parallel to the length direction (rolling direction) and the thickness direction of the titanium composite material 1. FIG. When the diffusion layer is heated and held in the process of manufacturing the titanium composite material 1 (heating before hot rolling, during hot rolling, heat treatment after hot rolling, etc.), This is a layer formed by diffusing each constituent element in titanium 41. As shown in FIG. 3, the diffusion layer is contained in a larger amount than the value of each constituent element contained in the titanium 41 of the inner layer part 4. Due to the presence of this diffusion layer, the grains of the titanium compound 42 in the inner layer portion 4 and the titanium 41 are firmly bonded. For this reason, when the titanium composite material 1 is processed, the titanium compound 42 does not break from the starting point.
 この拡散層は次のようにして把握できる。チタン複合材1の長さ方向(圧延方向)および厚さ方向に平行な断面(厚さ断面)を観察面とするように樹脂に埋め込んだ後、ダイヤモンドまたはアルミナ研濁液を用いて観察面を研磨して観察用試料に仕上げる。EPMAを用いて、上記観察用試料で観察されるチタン化合物42の粒が中心になるようにして厚さ方向に線分析を行う。分析の対象は、それぞれの構成元素(すなわち、炭化物の場合は炭素、窒化物の場合は窒素、酸化物の場合は酸素)である。内層部4のチタン41の値を基準にしてそれよりも濃度の高く、粒子を除いた領域が拡散層である。 This diffusion layer can be grasped as follows. After embedding in the resin so that the cross section (thickness cross section) parallel to the length direction (rolling direction) and the thickness direction of the titanium composite 1 is the observation surface, the observation surface is formed using diamond or alumina suspension. Polish to finish the sample for observation. Using EPMA, line analysis is performed in the thickness direction so that the grain of the titanium compound 42 observed in the observation sample is centered. The object of analysis is each constituent element (that is, carbon in the case of carbide, nitrogen in the case of nitride, oxygen in the case of oxide). A region having a higher concentration than the value of titanium 41 in the inner layer portion 4 and excluding particles is a diffusion layer.
 前記の拡散層の厚さは、色々な因子によって変化する。例えば、チタン化合物を添加する場合、(1) チタン化合物の分解、(2)周辺へのそれぞれの構成元素の拡散、によって形成されるために、チタン化合物の分解速度とそれぞれの構成元素のチタン材内での拡散速度によって変化する。また、製造時の熱履歴によっても変化する。さらに、熱間圧延素材としての梱包体の加熱時における、スポンジチタン等とチタン化合物の接触程度によっても変化する。よって、拡散層の厚さは同一材の中でも色々な拡散層の厚さを有することになり、一義的に決定することは困難であるが、チタン化合物やそれぞれの構成元素が存在する、または存在した部分を中心に、少なからず形成される。 The thickness of the diffusion layer varies depending on various factors. For example, when a titanium compound is added, since it is formed by (1) decomposition of the titanium compound and (2) diffusion of each constituent element to the periphery, the decomposition rate of the titanium compound and the titanium material of each constituent element Varies depending on the diffusion rate. It also varies depending on the thermal history during manufacture. Furthermore, it changes also with the contact degree of sponge titanium etc. and a titanium compound at the time of the heating of the package as a hot rolling raw material. Therefore, the thickness of the diffusion layer has various diffusion layer thicknesses within the same material, and it is difficult to uniquely determine, but the titanium compound and each constituent element exist or exist. It is formed not a little around the part.
 (b-4)内層部4の厚さ
 チタン複合材1の全厚さに対する内層部4の厚さが厚いほど、機械的特性は向上するので、チタン複合材1の全厚さに対して20%超とするのが好ましく、より好ましくは50%超である。一方、厚すぎると、加工性が劣化するので、内層部4の厚さは、チタン複合材1の全厚さに対して95%以下とするのが好ましい。
(B-4) Thickness of the inner layer portion 4 As the thickness of the inner layer portion 4 with respect to the total thickness of the titanium composite material 1 increases, the mechanical characteristics improve. % Is preferable, and more preferably 50%. On the other hand, if the thickness is too large, the workability deteriorates. Therefore, the thickness of the inner layer portion 4 is preferably 95% or less with respect to the total thickness of the titanium composite material 1.
 2.本発明に係る梱包体5の構成
 チタン梱包体5は、チタン梱包材6と充填材7,8とを備える。チタン梱包体5の形状は、特定の形状に限られるものではないが、製造されるチタン複合材1の形状によって決められる。板材のチタン複合材1を製造する場合は、直方体形状のチタン梱包体5を用いる。また、丸棒や線材、さらには押出材のチタン複合材1を製造する場合には、円柱形または八角柱等多角柱形状のチタン梱包体5を用いる。チタン梱包体5の大きさは、製品の大きさ(厚さ、幅や長さ)および製造量(質量)により決められる。
2. Configuration of Packing Body 5 According to the Present Invention Titanium packing body 5 includes a titanium packing material 6 and fillers 7 and 8. The shape of the titanium package 5 is not limited to a specific shape, but is determined by the shape of the titanium composite material 1 to be manufactured. When manufacturing the titanium composite material 1 of a plate material, a rectangular parallelepiped titanium package 5 is used. Moreover, when manufacturing the titanium composite material 1 of a round bar, a wire, and also an extruded material, a cylindrical packing or a polygonal column shape titanium packing 5 such as an octagonal column is used. The size of the titanium package 5 is determined by the product size (thickness, width and length) and the production amount (mass).
 (a)チタン梱包材6
 (a-1)チタン梱包材6化学組成
 チタン梱包材6は、チタン複合材1の表層部2,3と同様、JIS1種~JIS4種に属する工業用純チタンまたはチタン合金材を用いる。
(A) Titanium packing material 6
(A-1) Titanium Packing Material 6 Chemical Composition The titanium packing material 6 is made of industrial pure titanium or titanium alloy material belonging to JIS class 1 to JIS class 4, similar to the surface layers 2 and 3 of the titanium composite material 1.
 (a-2)チタン梱包材6形状
 チタン梱包材6の形状は、熱間加工用素材として用いられるチタン梱包体5の形状に依存するため、特に定形はなく、板材や管材などを用いることができる。
(A-2) Titanium packing material 6 shape Since the shape of the titanium packing material 6 depends on the shape of the titanium packing body 5 used as a material for hot working, there is no particular shape, and a plate material, a pipe material, or the like can be used. it can.
 熱間加工および冷間加工、焼鈍などの製造工程を経て製造されるチタン複合材1に優れた表面性状、内層部4の保持、および加工性を具備させるためには、チタン梱包材6の厚さが重要となる。 In order to make the titanium composite 1 manufactured through manufacturing processes such as hot processing, cold processing, and annealing have excellent surface properties, retention of the inner layer portion 4, and workability, the thickness of the titanium packing material 6 Is important.
 チタン梱包材6の厚さが1mm未満と薄い場合には、塑性変形に伴って熱間加工の途中で、チタン梱包材6が破断し、チタン梱包体5内部の一部が脱落する。この場合、同時に真空が破れて、チタン梱包体5の内部に充填されているチタン材7の酸化が生じる。また、チタン梱包体5の内部に充填されたチタン材7の起伏がチタン梱包体5の表面に転写され、熱間加工中に大きな表面起伏を生じるおそれもある。 When the thickness of the titanium packing material 6 is as thin as less than 1 mm, the titanium packing material 6 is broken in the course of hot working along with plastic deformation, and a part of the titanium packing body 5 falls off. In this case, the vacuum is broken at the same time, and the titanium material 7 filled in the titanium package 5 is oxidized. Further, the undulations of the titanium material 7 filled in the titanium package 5 are transferred to the surface of the titanium package 5, and there is a possibility that a large surface undulation may occur during hot working.
 これらの結果、製造されるチタン複合材1は、表面性状または延性などの機械的特性が劣化する。さらに、チタン梱包材6が過度に薄くなると、内部に充填したチタン材7の重量を支え切れないおそれがある。このため、室温や熱間保持または加工中にチタン梱包体5の剛性が不足して変形するおそれがある。 As a result, the manufactured titanium composite material 1 deteriorates mechanical properties such as surface properties or ductility. Furthermore, when the titanium packing material 6 becomes too thin, there is a possibility that the weight of the titanium material 7 filled therein cannot be supported. For this reason, there exists a possibility that the rigidity of the titanium package 5 may be insufficient and deform during room temperature, hot holding or processing.
 これら問題が発生することなく熱間加工を行うことができ、優れた表面性状、内層部4の保持および加工性を具備したチタン複合材1を製造するために、チタン梱包材6の厚さは、好ましくは1mm以上であり、より好ましくは2mm以上である。 In order to manufacture the titanium composite material 1 that can be hot-worked without causing these problems and has excellent surface properties, retention of the inner layer portion 4 and workability, the thickness of the titanium packing material 6 is , Preferably it is 1 mm or more, More preferably, it is 2 mm or more.
 さらに、チタン梱包材6の厚さは、チタン梱包体5の全厚さの25%以下が好ましい。チタン梱包材6の厚さが、チタン梱包体5の全厚さの25%より厚いと、製造上の問題は特にないものの、チタン梱包体5の全厚さに占めるチタン梱包材6の割合が大きくなり、内部、または内層部4の厚さが薄くなる。このため、チタン梱包体5内部のチタン化合物量が少なくなり、機械的特性向上効果が低くなるため好ましくない。 Furthermore, the thickness of the titanium packing material 6 is preferably 25% or less of the total thickness of the titanium packing body 5. If the thickness of the titanium packing material 6 is greater than 25% of the total thickness of the titanium packing body 5, there is no particular problem in manufacturing, but the ratio of the titanium packing material 6 to the total thickness of the titanium packing body 5 is It becomes large and the thickness of the inside or the inner layer part 4 becomes thin. For this reason, the amount of the titanium compound in the titanium package 5 is reduced, and the effect of improving the mechanical properties is lowered, which is not preferable.

 充填材としてのチタン材7は、スポンジチタン、チタンブリケットおよびチタンスクラップから選択される1種以上である。

The titanium material 7 as the filler is at least one selected from sponge titanium, titanium briquette and titanium scrap.
 (b-1-1)チタン材7の化学組成
 チタン材7の化学組成は、JIS1種~JIS4種に相当する工業用純チタンを用いることができる。すなわち、C:0.08%以下、H:0.013%以下、O:0.4%以下、N:0.05%以下、Fe:0.5%以下、残部Tiおよび不純物の化学組成を有する。
(B-1-1) Chemical Composition of Titanium Material 7 As the chemical composition of the titanium material 7, industrially pure titanium corresponding to JIS class 1 to JIS class 4 can be used. That is, C: 0.08% or less, H: 0.013% or less, O: 0.4% or less, N: 0.05% or less, Fe: 0.5% or less, the balance Ti and the chemical composition of impurities Have.
 (b-1-2)チタン材7の形状
 チタン材7としては、従来のクロール法などの製錬工程により製造された通常のスポンジチタンを用いることができる。その大きさは、平均粒径で20mm以下であることが好ましい。平均粒径が20mmより大きいと、チタン化合物等の粉末8と均一に混合し難く、熱間加工によって製造したチタン複合材1の内層部4内でチタン化合物のむらを生じるおそれがある。一方、平均粒径が小さい場合には、特性面では問題はないが、チタン材7の平均粒径が0.5mm未満では、破砕するのに時間がかかり、微細な粉塵の発生も多く飛散するため、製造効率が悪くなる。このため、チタン材の平均粒径は0.5mm以上であることが好ましい。
(B-1-2) Shape of Titanium Material 7 As the titanium material 7, normal sponge titanium produced by a refining process such as a conventional crawl method can be used. The size is preferably 20 mm or less in terms of average particle size. When the average particle size is larger than 20 mm, it is difficult to uniformly mix with the powder 8 such as a titanium compound, and there is a possibility that unevenness of the titanium compound occurs in the inner layer portion 4 of the titanium composite 1 manufactured by hot working. On the other hand, if the average particle size is small, there is no problem in terms of characteristics, but if the average particle size of the titanium material 7 is less than 0.5 mm, it takes time to crush and a lot of fine dust is scattered. Therefore, the production efficiency is deteriorated. For this reason, it is preferable that the average particle diameter of a titanium material is 0.5 mm or more.
 チタン材7としては、チタンスクラップを用いることできる。例えば、チタンスクラップは、工業用純チタン材の製造工程で発生する製品にならない端材、工業用純チタン素材を製品形状とするために切削、研削した際に発生するチタン切粉、製品として使用した後の不要になった工業用純チタン材等である。チタンスクラップは、大き過ぎると、搬送し難い、チタン梱包体5に入れ難いといった問題があるので、適宜切断するのが望ましい。 As the titanium material 7, titanium scrap can be used. For example, titanium scrap is used as a scrap that does not become a product generated in the manufacturing process of industrial pure titanium material, titanium chips generated when cutting and grinding to make industrial pure titanium material into a product shape, product It is a pure titanium material for industrial use that has become unnecessary after the processing. If the titanium scrap is too large, there is a problem that it is difficult to convey and difficult to put in the titanium package 5.
 スポンジチタンまたはチタンスクラップは塊状であるため、素材の間には空隙(すきま)9がある。スポンジチタン等のハンドリング性向上、またはこれら空隙を少なくするために、予めスポンジチタン等およびチタン化合物等の粉末8を混合後に圧縮成形して、図5に示すようなブリケット10としてからチタン梱包体5に入れてもよい。 Since sponge titanium or titanium scrap is in a lump shape, there is a gap (gap) 9 between the materials. In order to improve the handleability of sponge titanium or the like, or to reduce these voids, powder 8 such as sponge titanium and titanium compound is mixed in advance and then compression molded to form briquette 10 as shown in FIG. You may put in.
 (b-2)チタン化合物等の粉末8
 (b-2-1)チタン化合物等の粉末8の化学組成
 チタン化合物等の粉末8は、例えば、炭化物の場合、炭素粉末、TiC粉末等が例示され、窒化物の場合、TiN粉末のほか、FeN粉末、FeN粉末等(ただし、内層部4のチタンのFe濃度がJIS規格を超えてはならない。)が例示され、酸化物の場合、TiO粉末、TiO粉末、Ti粉末のほか、FeO粉末、Fe粉末やFe粉末等(ただし、内層部4のチタンのFe濃度がJIS規格を超えてはならない。)が例示される。これらの粉末8は、市販されているものを用いればよい。
(B-2) Powder of titanium compound or the like 8
(B-2-1) Chemical composition of powder 8 such as titanium compound Examples of the powder 8 such as titanium compound include carbon powder and TiC powder in the case of carbide, and TiN powder in the case of nitride. Fe 3 N powder, Fe 4 N powder, etc. (however, the Fe concentration of titanium in the inner layer portion 4 should not exceed the JIS standard) are exemplified. In the case of an oxide, TiO powder, TiO 2 powder, Ti 2 O In addition to the three powders, FeO powder, Fe 2 O 3 powder, Fe 3 O 4 powder, etc. (however, the Fe concentration of titanium in the inner layer portion 4 must not exceed the JIS standard) are exemplified. What is necessary is just to use what is marketed for these powders 8.
 (b-2-2)チタン化合物等の粉末8の形状
 チタン化合物等の粉末8の平均粒径が50μmを超えると、チタン材7と均一に混合し難い。よって、チタン複合材1の内層部4内でチタン化合物を均一に分散させることができなくなる。このため、チタン化合物等の粉末8の平均粒径は、好ましくは50μm以下である。
(B-2-2) Shape of Powder 8 such as Titanium Compound When the average particle diameter of the powder 8 such as a titanium compound exceeds 50 μm, it is difficult to uniformly mix with the titanium material 7. Therefore, the titanium compound cannot be uniformly dispersed in the inner layer portion 4 of the titanium composite material 1. For this reason, the average particle diameter of the powder 8 such as a titanium compound is preferably 50 μm or less.
 一方、チタン化合物等の粉末8の平均粒径がより小さい場合には特性面では問題はないものの、小さ過ぎると、チタン材7と混合する際、またはチタン梱包体5中に充填する際に、粉塵の飛散が問題になって作業に支障をきたすおそれがある。このため、チタン化合物等の粉末8の平均粒径は0.1μm以上であることが好ましい。 On the other hand, if the average particle size of the powder 8 such as a titanium compound is smaller, there is no problem in terms of characteristics, but if it is too small, when mixing with the titanium material 7 or filling in the titanium package 5, There is a risk that the scattering of dust may cause problems. For this reason, it is preferable that the average particle diameter of the powder 8 such as a titanium compound is 0.1 μm or more.
 (C)梱包体5の内部圧力
 チタン梱包体5内の空隙43に空気が残存していると、熱間加工前の加熱時にチタン材7が酸化・窒化してしまい、製造されるチタン複合材1の延性が低下する。このため、チタン梱包体5内を減圧して高真空とすることが有効である。
(C) Internal pressure of the package 5 If air remains in the gap 43 in the titanium package 5, the titanium material 7 is oxidized and nitrided during heating before hot working, and the titanium composite material to be manufactured The ductility of 1 decreases. For this reason, it is effective to depressurize the inside of the titanium packing body 5 to make a high vacuum.
 熱間加工時のチタン材7の酸化・窒化を防止するためには、チタン梱包体5の内部圧力(絶対圧)を10Pa以下、好ましくは1Pa以下にすることがよい。チタン梱包体5の内部圧力が10Paより大きいと、残留している空気によりチタン材7が酸化、または窒化してしまう。内部圧力を極端に小さくすることは、装置の気密性向上、および真空排気装置の増強などを要し、製造コストの増大に繋がるので、内部圧力の下限は、1×10-3Paとするのがよい。 In order to prevent oxidation / nitridation of the titanium material 7 during hot working, the internal pressure (absolute pressure) of the titanium package 5 should be 10 Pa or less, preferably 1 Pa or less. When the internal pressure of the titanium package 5 is greater than 10 Pa, the titanium material 7 is oxidized or nitrided by the remaining air. Making the internal pressure extremely small requires improvement of the airtightness of the device and enhancement of the vacuum exhaust device, etc., leading to an increase in manufacturing cost. Therefore, the lower limit of the internal pressure is set to 1 × 10 −3 Pa. Is good.
 3.チタン複合材1の製造方法
 チタン複合材1は、チタン梱包体5に熱間加工、またはさらに冷間加工を行うことにより製造される。
3. Method for Producing Titanium Composite Material 1 The titanium composite material 1 is produced by subjecting the titanium package 5 to hot working or further cold working.
 (a)熱間加工方法
 熱間加工の方法は、製品の形状によって選択することができる。板材のチタン複合材1を製造する場合は、直方体形状(スラブ)のチタン梱包体5を加熱して、熱間圧延を行い、チタン板とする。必要に応じて、従来工程と同様に、熱間圧延後に表面の酸化層を酸洗などで除去した後、冷間圧延を行い、さらに薄く加工してもよい。
(A) Hot working method The hot working method can be selected according to the shape of the product. When manufacturing the titanium composite material 1 of a plate material, the rectangular parallelepiped (slab) titanium package 5 is heated and hot-rolled to obtain a titanium plate. If necessary, after the hot rolling, the surface oxide layer may be removed by pickling or the like after hot rolling, and then cold rolling may be performed to further reduce the thickness.
 丸棒や線材のチタン複合材1を製造する場合は、円柱や多角形形状(ビレット)のチタン梱包体5を加熱して、熱間圧延や熱間押し出しを行い、チタン丸棒や線材とする。また、必要に応じて、従来工程と同様に、熱間加工後に酸化層を酸洗などで除去した後、冷間圧延を行い、さらに細く加工してもよい。 When manufacturing the titanium composite material 1 of a round bar or wire, the cylindrical packing or polygonal (billet) titanium packing body 5 is heated and hot rolled or hot extruded to obtain a titanium round bar or wire. . Further, as necessary, after the hot working, the oxide layer may be removed by pickling or the like, and then cold-rolled and further thinned as in the conventional process.
 (a-1)熱間加工の加熱温度
 さらに、押出形材のチタン複合材1を製造する場合は、円柱や多角形形状(ビレット)のチタン梱包体5を加熱して、熱間押出を行い、種々の断面形状のチタン形材とする。熱間加工前の加熱温度としては、通常のチタンスラブやビレットを熱間加工する場合と同様の加熱温度とすればよい。加熱温度は、チタン梱包体5の大きさや熱間加工の度合い(加工率)によって異なるが、600℃以上1200℃以下に加熱することが好ましい。
(A-1) Heating temperature for hot working Further, when manufacturing the extruded titanium composite material 1, the cylindrical packing or polygonal (billet) titanium package 5 is heated to perform hot extrusion. Titanium profiles with various cross-sectional shapes are used. The heating temperature before hot working may be the same as that used when hot working a normal titanium slab or billet. The heating temperature varies depending on the size of the titanium package 5 and the degree of hot working (working rate), but it is preferable to heat to 600 ° C. or more and 1200 ° C. or less.
 加熱温度が低過ぎると、チタン梱包体5の高温強度が高く、変形能が低いため、熱間加工中に割れが発生し易い。特に、チタン梱包体5の溶接部が割れて、内部が露出して一部が脱落したり、内部が酸化したりすると、チタン複合材1に必要な特性が得られなくなる。また、チタン化合物の粒の周囲にある構成元素の拡散層が形成されず、内層部のチタン化合物の粒とチタンが十分に結合できない。このため、チタン複合材を加工する際にチタン化合物を起点に割れが発生する場合がある。一方、加熱温度が高過ぎると、得られたチタン複合材1の組織が粗くなり、十分な材料特性が得られない。また、酸化により表面の梱包材6が減肉されてしまう。よって、加熱温度は、600℃~1200℃とすることが推奨される。 If the heating temperature is too low, the high temperature strength of the titanium package 5 is high and the deformability is low, so that cracking is likely to occur during hot working. In particular, if the welded portion of the titanium package 5 is cracked and the inside is exposed and partly falls off or the inside is oxidized, the characteristics necessary for the titanium composite 1 cannot be obtained. Further, the diffusion layer of the constituent elements around the titanium compound grains is not formed, and the titanium compound grains and titanium in the inner layer portion cannot be sufficiently bonded. For this reason, when processing a titanium composite material, a crack may generate | occur | produce from a titanium compound. On the other hand, when the heating temperature is too high, the structure of the obtained titanium composite 1 becomes rough, and sufficient material properties cannot be obtained. Further, the packing material 6 on the surface is thinned by oxidation. Therefore, it is recommended that the heating temperature be 600 ° C. to 1200 ° C.
 (a-2)熱間加工の加工率
 熱間加工の際の加工の度合い、すなわち加工率は、チタン複合材1の内層部4の空隙率を制御するために選択することができる。ここでいう加工率は、チタン梱包体5の断面積と熱間加工後のチタン複合材1の断面積の差を、チタン梱包体5の断面積で除した割合(百分率)である。
(A-2) Hot working rate The degree of hot working, ie, the working rate, can be selected to control the porosity of the inner layer portion 4 of the titanium composite 1. The processing rate here is a ratio (percentage) obtained by dividing the difference between the cross-sectional area of the titanium package 5 and the cross-sectional area of the titanium composite 1 after hot working by the cross-sectional area of the titanium package 5.
 この加工率が低い場合には、チタン梱包体5内部の空隙43が十分に圧着されないため、熱間加工後であっても、空隙43のまま残存する。このような空隙を多く含むチタン複合材1は、含有する空隙の分だけ軽量となり、機械的特性向上効果にも問題はない。ただし、内層部4に存在する空隙43が多いため、機械的特性が十分に得られない。一方、加工率が増大すると、空隙率は低下して機械的特性が向上する。このため、製造されるチタン複合材1の機械的特性が重要視される場合には、加工率は高いほうが好ましい。 When the processing rate is low, the gap 43 inside the titanium package 5 is not sufficiently crimped, so that the gap 43 remains even after hot working. The titanium composite material 1 containing a large amount of voids is lighter by the amount of voids contained, and there is no problem in the effect of improving mechanical properties. However, since there are many voids 43 present in the inner layer portion 4, sufficient mechanical properties cannot be obtained. On the other hand, when the processing rate is increased, the porosity is decreased and the mechanical properties are improved. For this reason, when the mechanical characteristics of the titanium composite material 1 to be manufactured are regarded as important, it is preferable that the processing rate is high.
 (b)熱間加工の工程
 熱間圧延後は、焼鈍、冷間圧延に供してもよい。チタン複合材1は、熱間加工材(例えば熱延板)でも、冷間加工材(例えば冷延板)でも、機械的特性向上効果に大きな違いはない。また、表面状態も圧延まま、酸洗仕上げ、焼鈍仕上げのいずれの状態でも良く、機械的特性向上効果は変わらない。
(B) Step of hot working After hot rolling, it may be subjected to annealing and cold rolling. The titanium composite material 1 has no significant difference in the effect of improving the mechanical properties, whether it is a hot-worked material (for example, hot-rolled plate) or a cold-worked material (for example, cold-rolled plate). Further, the surface state may be any state of rolling, pickling finish and annealing finish, and the effect of improving mechanical properties is not changed.
 4.チタン梱包体5の製造方法
 (a)充填材7,8の混合
 チタン材7にチタン化合物等の粉末8を均一かつ高密度で充填する必要がある。このためには、これらのチタン材7およびチタン化合物等の粉末8を容器に充填して回転または振動させて、内部のチタン材7、およびチタン化合物等の粉末8が均一に分散するように混合すればよい。
4). Manufacturing method of titanium package 5 (a) Mixing of fillers 7 and 8 The titanium material 7 needs to be uniformly and densely filled with powder 8 such as a titanium compound. For this purpose, these titanium material 7 and titanium compound powder 8 are filled in a container and rotated or vibrated, and mixed so that the internal titanium material 7 and titanium compound powder 8 are uniformly dispersed. do it.
 撹拌する方法は、容器を上下方向に回転させる、水平から20~70°傾けて斜め方向に回転させる、容器を上下方向や水平方向等に振動させる、あるいは容器内に撹拌子を挿入して撹拌子を回転させたりする方法等が挙げられる。 Stirring can be done by rotating the container up and down, tilting it 20 to 70 ° from the horizontal and rotating it in an oblique direction, vibrating the container in the vertical and horizontal directions, or inserting a stirring bar into the container and stirring. Examples include a method of rotating the child.
 撹拌時間は、容器の大きさや混合するチタン材7、およびチタン化合物等の粉末8の量により変化するが、1~30分間であるのが好ましい。生産性を考慮すると、数分間で均一に混合できるように、容器の大きさや処理量を決めることが好ましい。 The stirring time varies depending on the size of the container and the amount of the titanium material 7 to be mixed and the powder 8 of the titanium compound or the like, but is preferably 1 to 30 minutes. In consideration of productivity, it is preferable to determine the size of the container and the processing amount so that the mixture can be uniformly mixed within a few minutes.
 混合したチタン材7とチタン化合物等の粉末8は、そのままでチタン梱包体5内に充填する。あるいは、チタン材7のハンドリング性向上やこれら空隙を少なくするために、圧縮成形して図5に示すようなチタンブリケット10としてから、チタン梱包体5内に格納してもよい。 The mixed titanium material 7 and powder 8 such as titanium compound are filled in the titanium package 5 as they are. Alternatively, in order to improve the handleability of the titanium material 7 and reduce these gaps, the titanium briquette 10 as shown in FIG.
 (b)溶接
 チタン梱包材6を溶接部11で溶接する方法には、TIG溶接またはMIG溶接等のアーク溶接、ならびに電子ビーム溶接やレーザー溶接等が例示され、特に限定はされない。ただし、溶接雰囲気は、チタン材7、およびチタン梱包材6の面が酸化、または窒化されないように、真空雰囲気あるいは不活性ガス雰囲気で溶接を行うことが好ましい。
(B) Welding The method of welding the titanium packing material 6 with the welded portion 11 includes arc welding such as TIG welding or MIG welding, electron beam welding, laser welding, and the like, and is not particularly limited. However, it is preferable that welding is performed in a vacuum atmosphere or an inert gas atmosphere so that the surfaces of the titanium material 7 and the titanium packing material 6 are not oxidized or nitrided.
 チタン梱包材6のつなぎ目(溶接部11)を最後に溶接する際には、チタン梱包体5を真空雰囲気の容器(チャンバー)に入れて溶接を行い、チタン梱包体5の内部を真空に保つことが好ましい。 When welding the joint (welded portion 11) of the titanium packing material 6 lastly, the titanium packing body 5 is put in a vacuum atmosphere container (chamber) and welded to keep the inside of the titanium packing body 5 in a vacuum. Is preferred.
 図6に示すように、チタン化合物等の粉末8と混合し圧縮成形したチタンブリケット10を梱包材であるチタン展伸材で覆い、チタン展伸材の全周囲をシーム溶接(回転電極を用いた抵抗溶接)して密閉し、チタン梱包体12を製造してもよい。この際、事前に端部に穴をあけて銅管をろう溶接した銅管を通して、チタン展伸材の内部を所定の圧力になるまで減圧し、減圧後に銅管を圧着して、チタン展伸材内部の圧力を保ってもよい。 As shown in FIG. 6, a titanium briquette 10 mixed with a powder 8 such as a titanium compound and compression-molded is covered with a titanium expanded material as a packing material, and the entire circumference of the titanium expanded material is seam welded (using a rotating electrode). The titanium package 12 may be manufactured by sealing with resistance welding. At this time, the inside of the titanium wrought material is depressurized to a predetermined pressure through a copper pipe in which a hole is drilled at the end in advance and the copper pipe is solder-welded. The pressure inside the material may be maintained.
 5.チタン複合材1の用途
 高い引張強度と良好な加工性を有するとともに、低コストで製造可能であることから、自動車などの陸上輸送機器の構造部材として用いることができる。
5. Use of titanium composite 1 Since it has high tensile strength and good workability and can be manufactured at low cost, it can be used as a structural member for land transportation equipment such as automobiles.
 表1に示すチタン梱包体を製造し、このチタン梱包体に表1に示す製作工程でチタン複合材1(板材)を製造した。 A titanium package shown in Table 1 was produced, and a titanium composite 1 (plate material) was produced in the production process shown in Table 1 on the titanium package.
 充填材として、クロール法により製造した粒度が2.5mm以上6mm以下であり、化学組成がJIS1種相当(C:0.002%、H:0.001%、O:0.03%、N:0.001%、Fe:0.03%、残部Tiおよび不純物)のスポンジチタンを用いた。また、充填材として、市販のTiO粉末(平均粒径2μm)、TiC粉末(平均粒径3μm)またはTiN粉末(平均粒径5μm)を用いた。 As a filler, the particle size produced by the crawl method is 2.5 mm or more and 6 mm or less, and the chemical composition is equivalent to JIS class 1 (C: 0.002%, H: 0.001%, O: 0.03%, N: 0.001%, Fe: 0.03%, balance Ti and impurities) were used. As the filler, commercially available TiO 2 powder (average particle size 2 μm), TiC powder (average particle size 3 μm) or TiN powder (average particle size 5 μm) was used.
 上記のスポンジチタンと、チタン化合物等の粉末は、V型混合器に所定量を投入して混合した。混合した素材は、金型に投入して圧縮成形し、厚さ15mm、幅50mm、長さ60mmの図5に示すチタンブリケットにした。比較として、試料No.11では、スポンジチタン粒7のみ添加し、粉末原料8を添加しないでチタンブリケットを作成した。 The above-mentioned sponge titanium and powders of titanium compound and the like were mixed by feeding a predetermined amount into a V-type mixer. The mixed material was put into a mold and compression molded to form a titanium briquette shown in FIG. 5 having a thickness of 15 mm, a width of 50 mm, and a length of 60 mm. For comparison, Sample No. In No. 11, only titanium titanium particles 7 were added, and titanium briquette was prepared without adding the powder raw material 8.
 チタン梱包材として、JIS1種(TP270C;C:0.001%、H:0.005%、O:0.04%、N:0.001%、Fe:0.03%、残部Tiおよび不純物)またはJIS2種(TP340C;C:0.002%、H:0.004%、O:0.09%、N:0.001%、Fe:0.05%、残部Tiおよび不純物)工業用純チタン材からなる、厚さ1.0mmの薄板を用いた。 As a titanium packing material, JIS type 1 (TP270C; C: 0.001%, H: 0.005%, O: 0.04%, N: 0.001%, Fe: 0.03%, balance Ti and impurities) Or JIS type 2 (TP340C; C: 0.002%, H: 0.004%, O: 0.09%, N: 0.001%, Fe: 0.05%, balance Ti and impurities) industrial pure titanium A thin plate made of a material and having a thickness of 1.0 mm was used.
 図6に示すように、チタンブリケットを梱包材である工業用純チタン材で覆い、工業用純チタン材の全周囲をシーム溶接(回転電極を用いた抵抗溶接)して密閉した。この工業用純チタン材は、事前に端部に穴をあけて銅管をろう溶接した。シーム溶接後、銅管を通して、工業用純チタン材の内部を所定の圧力(0.06~1.2Pa)になるまで減圧し、減圧後に銅管を圧着して、工業用純チタン材内部の圧力を保った。試料No.12では38Paまで減圧したところで、銅管を圧着して梱包体とした。 As shown in FIG. 6, the titanium briquette was covered with an industrial pure titanium material as a packing material, and the entire circumference of the industrial pure titanium material was sealed by seam welding (resistance welding using a rotating electrode). This pure titanium material for industrial use was previously welded to a copper tube by making a hole in the end. After seam welding, the pressure inside the industrial pure titanium material is reduced to a predetermined pressure (0.06 to 1.2 Pa) through the copper tube. The pressure was maintained. Sample No. 12, when the pressure was reduced to 38 Pa, a copper tube was pressure-bonded to form a package.
 作製したチタン梱包体は、大気雰囲気下、850℃で4時間加熱した後、熱間圧延を行い、厚さ2.0mmのチタン複合材を製作した。チタン複合材は、725℃で15分間焼鈍後、酸洗して表層のスケールを除去して、組織観察や引張試験に供した。 The produced titanium package was heated at 850 ° C. for 4 hours in an air atmosphere and then hot-rolled to produce a 2.0 mm-thick titanium composite. The titanium composite was annealed at 725 ° C. for 15 minutes, then pickled to remove the scale of the surface layer, and subjected to a structure observation and a tensile test.
 チタン複合材の長さ方向(圧延方向)および厚さ方向に平行な断面(厚さ断面)が観察できるように樹脂に埋め込んだ後、ダイヤモンドまたはアルミナ研濁液を用いて観察面を研磨し(鏡面化仕上げ)、観察用試料に仕上げた。空隙率は、光学顕微鏡で、上記観察用試料の厚さ中心部を20か所写真撮影して、個々の写真毎に空隙の面積率を測定してそれらの平均値を求めた。筋状化合物集合体は、光学顕微鏡で、上記観察用試料の厚さ中心部を観察して、その形態を求めた。また、観察された筋状化合物集合体20個について、厚さtと長さLを測定してL/tを算出して、それらの平均値を求めた。 After embedding in the resin so that a cross section (thickness cross section) parallel to the length direction (rolling direction) and thickness direction of the titanium composite can be observed, the observation surface is polished with diamond or alumina suspension ( Mirror finish) and finished the sample for observation. The porosity was obtained by taking 20 photographs of the central portion of the thickness of the observation sample with an optical microscope, measuring the area ratio of the void for each individual photograph, and obtaining the average value thereof. The shape of the streak-like compound aggregate was determined by observing the central portion of the thickness of the observation sample with an optical microscope. Moreover, about 20 observed streak compound aggregates, thickness t and length L were measured, L / t was calculated, and those average values were calculated | required.
 拡散層の厚さは、TiO粉末、TiC粉末,TiN粉末を添加したNo.2、No.4、No.6について、上記観察用試料の厚さ中心部に観察された筋状化合物集合体5個について、その中に観察された3個のチタン化合物の粒をEPMAで測定した。チタン化合物の粒が中心になるようにして厚さ方向に線分析を行い、内層部のチタンの値を基準にして、それよりもチタン化合物の構成元素(炭素、窒素または酸素)濃度が高く、粒子を除いた片側の領域の距離を測定して、それらを平均して、筋状化合物集合体それぞれの拡散層の厚さとして求めた。 The thickness of the diffusion layer is No. 1 to which TiO 2 powder, TiC powder and TiN powder were added. 2, No. 4, no. As for No. 6, the five titanium compound grains observed in the central portion of the thickness of the observation sample were measured with EPMA for the three titanium compound grains observed therein. Perform line analysis in the thickness direction so that the grains of the titanium compound are in the center, and based on the value of titanium in the inner layer, the concentration of the constituent elements (carbon, nitrogen or oxygen) of the titanium compound is higher than that, The distance of the area | region of the one side except particle | grains was measured, they were averaged, and it calculated | required as thickness of each diffusion layer of a streak compound aggregate.
引張試験はチタン複合材の圧延方向で評価した。引張速度は、降伏点を超えるまで0.4%/分で、降伏点を超えてからは30%/分で行い、強度を測定した。また、降伏するまでの応力-ひずみ曲線の勾配からヤング率を求めた。 The tensile test was evaluated in the rolling direction of the titanium composite material. The tensile rate was 0.4% / min until exceeding the yield point, and 30% / min after exceeding the yield point, and the strength was measured. The Young's modulus was obtained from the slope of the stress-strain curve until yielding.

 図7は、Ti-0.1%N板の断面ミクロ組織の写真の一例である。 FIG. 7 is an example of a photograph of a cross-sectional microstructure of a Ti-0.1% N plate.
図7に例示するように、本発明例である試料No.8のチタン複合板の断面の組織を観察すると、黒く見えるチタン化合物が所々に認められる。この黒い筋状化合物集合体は、窒化チタンの集合体であり、X線回折で測定した結果、TiNであった。 As illustrated in FIG. 7, sample no. When the structure of the cross section of the titanium composite plate of No. 8 is observed, titanium compounds that appear black are recognized in some places. This black streak-like compound aggregate was an aggregate of titanium nitride, and as a result of measurement by X-ray diffraction, it was TiN.
 チタンに、炭化物、窒化物および酸化物から選択される1種以上のチタン化合物が分散している本発明例の試料No.1~8は、これらのチタン化合物を有していない試料No.10に比べて、チタン複合材の強度やヤング率が向上した。なお、チタン梱包体5を作製する際に、チタン梱包体の内部の真空度を10Paより大きくした試料No.9は、チタン複合材の内部が一部で酸化し、強度は低下したものの、ヤング率は一定値以上を維持していた。TiO粉末を添加したNo.2では、酸素の拡散層の厚さが4~6μmであった。TiC粉末を添加したNo.4では、炭素の拡散層の厚さが25~32μmであった。TiN粉末を添加したNo.6では、窒素の拡散層の厚さが1~2μmであった。 Sample No. of the present invention example in which one or more titanium compounds selected from carbides, nitrides and oxides are dispersed in titanium. Samples Nos. 1 to 8 have no titanium compound. Compared to 10, the strength and Young's modulus of the titanium composite were improved. Note that when the titanium package 5 was manufactured, the sample No. 1 with the degree of vacuum inside the titanium package greater than 10 Pa was used. In No. 9, the inside of the titanium composite was partially oxidized and the strength decreased, but the Young's modulus was maintained at a certain value or more. No. with TiO 2 powder added. In No. 2, the thickness of the oxygen diffusion layer was 4 to 6 μm. No. to which TiC powder was added. In No. 4, the thickness of the carbon diffusion layer was 25 to 32 μm. No. with TiN powder added. In No. 6, the thickness of the nitrogen diffusion layer was 1-2 μm.
