Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of microstructure design and preparation of titanium-based composite materials, and particularly relates to a double-structure titanium-based composite material based on direct energy deposition additive manufacturing and a method thereof. In this method, the size of the network, the content of the reinforcing phase, and the continuity of the network region are controlled.
Background
The titanium-based composite material has the characteristics of high specific strength and high specific modulus, and has good high-temperature resistance and corrosion resistance, so that the titanium-based composite material is widely applied to the fields of aerospace, vehicle engineering, biomedicine and the like. Additive manufacturing of titanium alloys, particularly the dual phase titanium alloy TC4, has been widely studied and is well-established in various fields. Due to the extremely fast cooling rate, additive manufacturing TC4 exhibits an acicular, alpha-phase martensitic structure, which results in a higher strength, but lower elongation, often below 10%. For additive manufacturing TC4, higher strength, and better strong plastic matching, have been pursued by researchers. Although the addition of the reinforcing phase greatly increases the strength of TC4, it also causes severe plastic degradation and even brittle fracture. To avoid this problem, the microstructure design of titanium-based composites has become a hotspot problem in extensive research. The titanium-based composite material with the reticular structure prepared by the traditional modes including sintering, powder metallurgy and the like often has better strong plastic matching performance, and certain plasticity can be maintained while the strength is greatly improved. After the net-shaped structural design is introduced into the additive to manufacture the titanium-based composite material, the strength can be improved greatly, but due to the growth of the longitudinal thick beta dendrites, the whisker is distributed along the printing direction in the XOZ plane, the preferential growth of the whisker can lead the material to generate early fracture, and a growth polymerization route is provided for the expansion of cracks, so that the material cannot obtain deflection kinking of the cracks. From the mechanical property results of the additive manufacturing net-shaped titanium-based composite material, the elongation rate of the titanium-based composite material tends to be reduced, and the titanium-based composite material has the defect of unstable performance. Therefore, the patent proposes a titanium-based composite material with a double structure, so that the whiskers grow along the initial beta crystal, but have a microstructure structure with discontinuous distribution of regions with a net structure, and sufficient deflection torsion space is provided for crack expansion and growth, thereby realizing cooperative promotion of mechanical properties.

The present example prepared a dual structure titanium-based composite, and the specific preparation method was substantially the same as example 1, except that: in the fifth step, the rotation speed of the first powder feeder is set to be 1%, and the rotation speed of the second powder feeder is set to be 1%. Finally, printing is completed, and a sample is obtained.
In the embodiment, the TiB is prepared by regulating and controlling the powder feeding rates of two powder feeders of BLT-C400 equipment of the additive manufacturing equipment and simultaneously feeding and printing w The reinforcing phase presents a network distribution, but the network region presents a discontinuous distribution of the dual-structure titanium-based composite material. The scanning electron microscope photograph of the double-structure titanium-based composite material is shown in fig. 6, wherein the area encircled by the white line is a net-shaped area, the area encircled by the red line is a non-net-shaped area, the material consists of the net-shaped area and the non-net-shaped area at the same time, and the reinforcing phase is uniformly distributed in the non-net-shaped area. As shown in the red line of FIG. 5, the tensile curve results in the embodiment show that the strength of the material is 1071MPa and the elongation is 11%, the structural design greatly improves the strength and modulus of the material, slightly improves the toughness, and achieves the effect of strengthening and toughening simultaneously.
Example III
The embodiment prepares a double-structure titanium-based composite material, and a specific preparation method and a specific application thereofExample 1 is essentially the same, except that: 58.98g of TC4 powder and 1.02g of TiB were weighed in step two 2 Mixing to prepare a mixed powder, and predicting TiB in the prepared material 2 The reinforcing phase accounts for 1%. In the fifth step, the rotation speed of the first powder feeder is set to be 1%, and the rotation speed of the second powder feeder is set to be 1%. Finally, printing is completed, and a sample is obtained.
In the embodiment, the TiB is prepared by regulating and controlling the powder feeding rates of two powder feeders of BLT-C400 equipment of the additive manufacturing equipment and simultaneously feeding and printing w The reinforcing phase presents a network distribution, but the network region presents a discontinuous distribution of the dual-structure titanium-based composite material. The scanning electron microscope photograph of the double-structure titanium-based composite material is shown in fig. 7, wherein the area encircled by the white line is a net-shaped area, the area encircled by the red line is a non-net-shaped area, the material consists of the net-shaped area and the non-net-shaped area at the same time, and the reinforcing phase is uniformly distributed in the non-net-shaped area. The tensile curve results in this example are shown in the blue line of fig. 5, and the strength of the material reaches 1074MPa, and the elongation is 8.1%. As can be seen from comparison, the structural design has the advantages of greatly improving the strength and modulus of the material and reducing the toughness to a lower degree.
The above embodiment is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, but it is not intended to limit the present invention. Various changes and modifications may be made by one of ordinary skill in the pertinent art without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
