Abstract

As-built Ti48Al2Cr2Nb alloy samples produced by electron beam powder bed fusion (PBF-EB) exhibited notable brittleness. The low ductility was attributed to coarse γ bands aligned perpendicular to the building and tensile direction. Additionally, variations in aluminum content and hardness between the coarse colonies and fine γ/α2 lamellae contribute to this phenomenon. Electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD) studies revealed a higher amount of dislocation density and inherent strain after PBF-EB manufacturing. Hence, usage of Ti48Al2Cr2Nb alloy in the as-built condition in aviation applications with high loads and demanding environments is not found to be viable. To eliminate these negative aspects and make PBF-EB produced Ti48Al2Cr2Nb alloy available for demanding applications, two distinct post-processing heat treatments; namely, hot isostatic pressing (HIP) and annealing heat treatment (HT) were employed at 1200 °C. A comprehensive characterization covering microstructure analysis, EBSD, fracture surface examination, as well as room and high-temperature tensile tests allowed determination of the effect of post-processes. HIPing altered the banded structure observed in the as-built samples by increasing the amount of α2 phase and grain size. On the other hand, HT made the banded structure more pronounced without significantly increasing the amount of α2 phase. HT also strengthened the <001> texture, while HIPing introduced randomization of grains. On the other hand, complete recrystallization is achieved as a result of HT at 1200 °C for 2 h, whereas HIPing at the same temperature for 2 h induced only 80.5 % recrystallization. In both post-processes, dislocation density and inherent strain were reduced. Room temperature and high-temperature tensile tests demonstrated that both HIPing and HT eliminated the extreme brittleness of the as-built samples.
二次处理对电子束粉末床熔合Ti48Al2Cr2Nb合金影响的研究
采用电子束粉末床熔合法制备的Ti48Al2Cr2Nb合金样品具有明显的脆性。低延展性是由于粗γ带垂直于建筑和拉伸方向排列。此外,粗菌落和细γ/α2片间铝含量和硬度的变化也导致了这一现象。电子背散射衍射(EBSD)研究表明,PBF-EB制造后的位错密度和固有应变增加。因此,在高负荷和苛刻环境的航空应用中,在建成条件下使用Ti48Al2Cr2Nb合金是不可行的。为了消除这些负面影响,使PBF-EB生产的Ti48Al2Cr2Nb合金可用于苛刻的应用,两种不同的后处理热处理;即在1200℃下进行热等静压(HIP)和退火热处理(HT)。综合表征包括微观结构分析,EBSD,断口表面检查,以及室内和高温拉伸测试,可以确定后处理的效果。HIPing通过增加α2相的数量和晶粒尺寸,改变了试样的带状组织。另一方面,高温没有显著增加α2相的数量,却使带状组织更加明显。高温处理也增强了<;001>;织构,而高温处理引入了晶粒的随机化。另一方面,在1200℃高温下加热2 h,可以实现完全的再结晶,而在相同温度下加热2 h,只诱导80.5%的再结晶。在这两种后处理中,位错密度和固有应变都降低了。室温和高温拉伸试验表明,HIPing和HT都消除了成品样品的极端脆性。
