三维微纳异构(FeCoNi)86Al7Ti7高熵合金的制备与力学性能研究

Investigation of Preparation and Mechanical Performance of (FeCoNi)86Al7Ti7 High Entropy Alloy by Tailoring Three-dimensional Microstructures

  • 摘要: FCC高熵合金具有优异的塑性与加工硬化能力,但较低的屈服强度限制了其应用价值。异质结构被认为是解决材料强度和塑性矛盾的关键手段,尤其是近年来提出的调和组织将粗晶粒的高加工硬化率与超细晶的高强度成功结合,得到了一系列具有优异强度-塑性匹配的新型结构材料。本研究选取(FeCoNi)86Al7-Ti7合金作为研究对象,通过长时间球磨在合金粉末表面形成塑性变形层。球磨后的合金粉末通过放电等离子烧结成块体,烧结过程中变形层再结晶形成超细晶网络包裹未变形的粗晶核心。通过XRD、SEM、EDS、EBSD、TEM等测试手段对合金粉末和烧结合金块体的物相构成与微观组织进行了研究,通过拉伸试验比较了不同状态合金的力学性能,并探讨了沉淀相与调和组织对合金的强化作用。其中经50 h球磨后的粉末烧结合金的屈服强度为1 087 MPa,相比未经球磨的粉末烧结合金的提升14.4%,同时塑性也有一定提升,该粉末烧结合金显示出良好的强度-塑性匹配。

     

    Abstract: FCC high-entropy alloys (HEAs) have great plasticity and high work hardening rate, but low yield strength limits their application. Heterogeneous materials such as harmonic structured alloys, are considered to be the key to solve the contradiction of strength and ductility. The harmonic structure successfully combines the high work hardening rate of coarse grain with the high strength of ultrafine grain, and thus improves the strength while maintaining tensile ductility. In this work, (FeCoNi)86-Al7Ti7 alloy is selected to investigate the influence of the harmonic structure on the mechanical behavior of the material. A deformation layer is formed by grinding the alloy powders by ball milling. The processed powders are then consolidated by spark plasma sintering. The deformation layer recrystallizes in the sintering process to form the ultrafine grained network wrapping the undefor- med coarse crystal core. The phase composition and microstructure of alloy powders and sintered alloy blocks are studied by XRD, SEM, EDS, EBSD, TEM and other test methods. Tensile experiments are conducted to compare the mechanical properties of the alloys in different states and the effects of proclpitated phase and harmonic structure on the alloy strengthening are discussed. The yield strength of the alloy sintered from powders ball-milled for 70 hours is 1 087 MPa, which is 14.4% higher than that of the alloy sintered from powders unmilled, and the plasticity of the alloy sintered from powders milled for 70 hours is also improved compared with that of the alloy sintered from powders unmilled, showing good match of strength and ductility.
