Abstract

This study employs low-energy ball milling with hot press sintering technique to fabricate network-structure TA15 matrix composites with TiB2 of different sizes (5 μm, 0.5 μm, and 100 nm). For 5 μm or 0.5 μm TiB2, in-situ synthesized TiB whisker (TiBw) exhibit rod-like morphology with aspect ratio of 7.8 or 7.5, forming quasi-continuous networks at primary β phase boundaries to induce heterogeneous nucleation of primary α (αp). Their room-temperature yield strength and elongation are 890 MPa and 7.7 %, 896 MPa and 8.2 %, respectively. Meanwhile, their high-temperature strength at 600 °C is 518 MPa and 543 MPa. However, when the size of TiB2 is reduced to 100 nm, TiBw exhibited a much smaller diameter accompanied by a remarkably high average aspect ratio of 16.2, leading to the formation of a needle-like morphology. The morphological transformation of TiBw is governed by its nucleation sites and the concentration gradient of B atomic diffusion. This needle TiBw/TA15 composite exhibits a very good room-temperature yield strength of 1135 MPa and high-temperature properties of 589 MPa in strength and 16.4 % in fracture strain at 600 °C. The enhanced high-temperature elongation stems from TA15 matrix softening, which reduces crack propagation resistance and promotes crack deflection into the matrix.
纳米TiB晶须提高TA15基复合材料高温强度和塑性的机理
本研究采用低能球磨热压烧结技术制备了不同尺寸(5 μm、0.5 μm和100 nm)的TiB2网状结构TA15基复合材料。对于5 μm和0.5 μm TiB2,原位合成TiB晶须(TiBw)呈现棒状形貌,长径比分别为7.8和7.5,在初生β相边界处形成准连续网络,诱导初生α (αp)非均相形核。室温屈服强度为890 MPa,延伸率为7.7%,室温屈服强度为896 MPa,延伸率为8.2%。600℃高温强度分别为518 MPa和543 MPa。然而,当TiB2的尺寸减小到100 nm时,TiBw的直径要小得多,并且平均长径比高达16.2,导致形成针状形态。TiBw的形态转变受其成核位置和B原子扩散浓度梯度的控制。该针状TiBw/TA15复合材料室温屈服强度为1135 MPa,高温强度为589 MPa, 600℃时断裂应变为16.4%。高温伸长率的提高源于TA15基体的软化,软化降低了裂纹扩展阻力,促进了裂纹向基体的偏转。

期刊介绍: Composites Communications (Compos. Commun.) is a peer-reviewed journal publishing short communications and letters on the latest advances in composites science and technology. With a rapid review and publication process, its goal is to disseminate new knowledge promptly within the composites community. The journal welcomes manuscripts presenting creative concepts and new findings in design, state-of-the-art approaches in processing, synthesis, characterization, and mechanics modeling. In addition to traditional fiber-/particulate-reinforced engineering composites, it encourages submissions on composites with exceptional physical, mechanical, and fracture properties, as well as those with unique functions and significant application potential. This includes biomimetic and bio-inspired composites for biomedical applications, functional nano-composites for thermal management and energy applications, and composites designed for extreme service environments.
