Abstract

In this study, high Ti/Al ratio (2.35) nickel-based superalloys were successfully fabricated using the laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) technique and systematically investigated how varying heat treatment temperatures influence the alloy's microstructure and mechanical properties. The findings indicate that the high Ti/Al ratio alloy possesses promising printability. At a solid solution temperature of 1180 °C and an aging temperature of 830 °C, the alloy demonstrates an optimal balance of strength and plasticity. This is attributed to the highest degree of recrystallization, the absence of harmful phase precipitation, and a uniform distribution of the γ′ phase. Moreover, a solid solution temperature of 1120 °C leads to η phase precipitation, significantly decreasing the alloy's plasticity. This study not only elucidates the mechanism by which heat treatment temperature affects the structural evolution of high Ti/Al ratio nickel-based superalloys but also offers theoretical support and practical guidance for superalloy material design and future applications.

热处理温度对激光粉末床熔合制备高Ti/Al比镍基高温合金组织和性能的影响

本研究采用激光粉末床熔合（LPBF）技术成功制备了高Ti/Al比（2.35）的镍基高温合金，并系统研究了不同热处理温度对合金显微组织和力学性能的影响。结果表明，高钛铝比合金具有良好的印刷性能。在1180℃固溶温度和830℃时效温度下，合金的强度和塑性达到了最佳平衡。这是由于再结晶程度最高，没有有害相析出，γ′相分布均匀。当固溶温度为1120℃时，η相析出，显著降低了合金的塑性。本研究不仅阐明了热处理温度影响高Ti/Al比镍基高温合金组织演变的机理，而且为高温合金材料设计和未来应用提供了理论支持和实践指导。
