粉末粒径对高速压制Ti-6Al-4V合金性能的影响(英文)

采用高速压制(HVC)技术成形平均粒径分别为103、66和44μm的3种Ti6Al4V合金粉末,然后将合金粉末进行真空烧结,考察粉末粒径对成形效果和烧结体性能的影响。结果表明,细粉末比粗粉末更难压制,获得的压坯密度也更低。但是细粉末压坯的烧结密度明显高于粗粉末压坯的烧结密度。与粒径为103和66μm的粉末相比,粒径为44μm的粉末的压坯密度最低,在冲击能量为913J时其相对密度为85.1%。然而在1300°C烧结2.5h后,粒径为44μm的粉末压坯的烧结密度最高,其相对密度达到98.2%。而且,粒径为44μm的烧结试样具有最高的硬度和压缩强度,分别为HV354和1265MPa。

Influence of particle size on property of Ti-6Al-4V alloy prepared by high-velocity compaction

Three Ti-6Al-4V alloy powders with median diameters of 103, 66 and 44 μm, respectively, were pressed by high-velocity compaction (HVC) technology and then sintered in vacuum. The effects of particle sizes on forming as well as properties of sintered samples were investigated. The results show that fine powders are more difficult to press than coarse powders and its compact density is lower too. But the sintered density of fine powders is obviously higher than that of coarse powders. Compared with the powders with 103 and 66 μm in diameter, the green density with 44 μm diameter powders is lower, which is 85.1% of theoretical density (TD) at an impact energy of 913 J. After sintering at 1300 °C for 2.5 h, the sintered density of the compacts with 44 μm diameter powders is the highest, and reaches 98.2% of TD. Moreover, the sintered sample with 44 μm in diameter has the highest hardness and compressive strength, which are HV 354 and 1265 MPa, respectively.
