Abstract

TiAl plays a crucial role in the field of aero-engine as a new lightweight high-temperature alloy. The γ/α2 lamellar TiAl single crystals exhibit the highest recorded plasticity, much higher than the soft phase γ-TiAl. This suggests that the hard phase α2-Ti3Al may have a unique plastic deformation mechanism, which is important for essentially understanding the origin of unusual plasticity and further improving the mechanical properties of TiAl. Here, we found the dynamic sequential phase transformation between HCP and FCC under shear loading in α2-Ti3Al, which is a novel plastic deformation mechanism comparable to twinning. We attribute this to the bond-breaking formation process called “catching bond”, which is the origin of atomic mechanism of phase transformation occurrence. This “catching bond” process is an effective way of energy dissipation that can release the internal stress while maintaining the integrity of structure. The higher cleavage energy than the generalized stacking fault energy (GSFE) guarantees the continuity of phase transformation during shearing. Moreover, the γ/α2 coherent interface can reduce the GSFE, thus decreasing the critical resolved shear stress (CRSS) of the phase transformation by 35%, which suggests that the phase transformation induced plastic mechanism easily occurs in the lamellar structure. This study reveals the plastic deformation mechanism of α2-Ti3Al and explores the role of γ/α2 coherent interface on the plasticity, which is expected to provide guidance for further improving the mechanical properties of TiAl alloys.

α2-Ti3Al相变诱发塑性变形机理
TiAl作为一种新型轻质高温合金,在航空发动机领域发挥着至关重要的作用。γ/α2片层TiAl单晶表现出最高的塑性,远高于软相γ-TiAl。这表明硬相α2-Ti3Al可能具有独特的塑性变形机制,这对于从根本上了解异常塑性的成因,进一步提高TiAl的力学性能具有重要意义。在剪切作用下,α2-Ti3Al中HCP和FCC发生了动态的顺序相变,这是一种类似于孪晶的新型塑性变形机制。我们将其归因于称为“抓键”的断键形成过程,这是相变发生的原子机制的起源。这种“抓键”过程是一种有效的能量耗散方式,可以在保持结构完整性的同时释放内应力。比广义层错能(GSFE)更高的解理能保证了剪切过程中相变的连续性。此外,γ/α2共融界面降低了GSFE,使相变的临界分辨剪切应力(CRSS)降低了35%,表明相变诱发塑性机制容易发生在片层结构中。本研究揭示了α2- ti3al的塑性变形机理,探讨了γ/α2共格界面对塑性的影响,有望为进一步提高TiAl合金的力学性能提供指导。
