This study examines procedures for consistently producing sound (crack and void free) welds using the autogenous (without
filler metal) gas tungsten arc (GTA) welding process. Cast alloy Ti-48Al-2Cr-2Nb (at. pct) and extruded alloy Ti-46Al-2Cr-2Nb-0.9Mo
(at. pct) have been examined to determine if sound welds can be produced using autogenous GTA welding without any preheat.
Experimentation consisted of GTA spot welding samples of gamma titanium aluminide at weld current levels of 45, 55, 65, and
75 A for a duration of 3 seconds. For the cast alloy, current levels of 45, 55, and 65 A for 3 seconds produced similar fusion
zone microstructures, which consisted of a dendritic solidification structure. The fusion zone microstructure of the 75 A
for 3 seconds current level differed significantly from the lower current levels. It also consisted of a dendritic solidification
structure; however, the morphology was quite different. For the extruded alloy, current levels of 45 and 55 A for 3 seconds
produced fusion zone microstructures similar to the lower current level samples of the cast γ-TiAl, which consisted of a dendritic solidification structure. The fusion zone microstructures of the 65 and 75 A samples
were similar to each other, but they had a dendritic solidification structure of a different morphology than that of the 45
and 55 A samples. For both alloys at all current levels, microhardness profiles showed an increase in hardness from the base
metal to the fusion zone. There were no significant differences in the average fusion zone hardness as a function of increasing
current level. However, nanoindentation testing did show that certain phases and microconstituents in the fusion zone did
have significant variations in hardness in relation to the enrichment and depletion of chromium.

A gas-atomized (GA) prealloyed powder of the Ti-48Al-2Cr-2Nb intermetallic and 1.6 wt pct Y were mechanically alloyed (MA)
and hot isostatically pressed (hipped) to produce a fully dense nanocrystalline material. Mechanical alloying of the as-blended
powder for 16 hours resulted in the formation of a disordered fcc phase. Hipping of the alloy powder produced a single-phase
nanocrystalline TiAl intermetallic, containing a distribution of 20 to 35-nm-sized Al2Y4O9 particles. The formation of oxide particles occurred by the chemical combination of Al and Y with oxygen, which entered as
a contaminant during milling. Oxide particles increased the hardness of the intermetallic compound and minimized grain growth
even at 0.8 T

, where T

The effect of added oxygen in the range of 1000 to 4000 wt ppm on the microstructures of a Ti-48Al-2Cr-2Nb alloy has been
investigated and compared to the microstructures for a high-purity alloy. For specimens cooled from theα phase, interstitial oxygen stabilizes the lamellar microstructure with respect toγ grains, with higher than equilibrium values for theα
2 volume fraction. For specimens cooled from theα +γ phase field, the lamellar microstructure still tends to be favored by oxygen, but it is found that the phase volume fractions
are not significantly different from equilibrium values. This suggests that interstitial O essentially reduces the kinetics
of theα toα +γ transformation. Thus, interstitial oxygen will have a strong effect on microstructures obtained by continuous cooling fromα, but significantly less on those, such as the duplex microstructure, obtained by long treatment in theα +γ phase field. In general, increased O content is well correlated with reduced ductility. Finally, the role of interstitial
oxygen on this phase transformation is discussed. 相似文献

Titanium aluminide intermetallic compounds have an excellent capability for use in engineering structures at high temperatures.
In the present work the formation of Nb rich inclusions in microstructure and evaporation of Al during melting of γ-TiAl based
alloy (Ti-48Al-2Cr-2Nb-1B (at %)) was studied. The results show that the inclusions cannot be removed even with a four-stage
melting process, when elemental Nb is used as raw material. However, by replacing Nb with NbAl3 and using a three-stage melting process, the inclusions were removed from microstructure and also evaporation of Al was reduced
remarkably. Otherwise, with removing elemental Al from raw material by using TiAl compound, evaporation of Al will be very
low. Increasing vessel pressure from 400 to 600 mbar will not influence evaporation of Al.

The mechanism of formation of the fine duplex microstructure resulting from the α → γ transformation in water-quenched Ti-48Al-2Mn-2Nb
alloys was studied using transmission and analytical electron microscopy. As-cast Ti-48Al-2Mn-2Nb alloys were heat treated
in the α phase field and water quenched to room temperature. The resulting microstructure (referred to as a fine duplex microstructure)
consisted of equiaxed grains and abutting lath colonies. Both the colonies and the grains were composed of the γ phase, twinned
γ laths, and α2 laths. It was found that the transformation from α to γ in the fine duplex microstructure took place through long range diffusional
processes, and compctitive growth between the equiaxed and lath morphology occurred. Nucleation of they phase from the α matrix can occur through nucleation on stacking faults, followed by growth through the sympathetic nucleation
and growth of new γ laths on a substrate lath. The observed misorientations and the interfacial structures between the laths
were found to be consistent with such a mechanism. Compctition between such nucleation and growth mechanisms for the equiaxed
and lath morphologies of γ leads to the formation of lath colonies (of γ and α2) interspersed with equiaxed grains in these alloys.

This study deals with some aspects of the dry sliding behavior of a gamma TiAl-based alloy with the following composition:
Ti-48Al-2Cr-2Nb-1B (at. pct). The tribological system consisted of an AISI M2 steel disk sliding against TiAl alloy sheets.
Different alloy microstructures—duplex, equiaxed, and lamellar—were considered, in order to check for their possible effect
on the wear behavior. At low loads, a mainly abrasive mechanism was inferred from the phases present in the debris collected
at the end of each test. An additional contribution from oxidational phenomena was found at higher loads. In such conditions,
the equiaxed samples displayed a slightly better wear resistance. A remarkable improvement in wear resistance was observed
when the alloy specimens were tested without a preliminary removal of the surface layer which resulted from the heat treatments
carried out to obtain different microstructures. Again, some differences were found in the wear behavior of alloys with different
microstructures. In this case, though, the difference can rather be attributed to the different morphology of the surface
layers. Better performances were observed in those samples, both duplex and equiaxed, in which a good mechanical matching
between the alloy and the outer scale was accomplished, thanks to the presence of a hardened interdiffusion zone. An aspect
which should be considered further is the tribological coupling of the as-treated alloys. Indeed, the elevated hardness and
surface roughness of the coating yields a significant wear of the sliding counterface. 相似文献

A Ti-24Al-11Nb alloy has been heat-treated so as to obtain a microstructure of coarse α2 particles (D019 structure based on Ti3Al) in a matrix of the ordered βo phase (B2 structure based on Ti2AlNb). Dislocation structures generated by tensile strains of ∼2 pct at room temperature have been analyzed by transmission
electron microscopy The βo phase is shown to deform inhomogeneously on {110}, {112}, and {123} planes by α/〈211〉 slip. The slipband structure is complex,
consisting of segments of heavily pinned edge dislocations with periodic cross slip of screw components on to secondary slip
planes. Incompatibility stresses at α2/βo interfaces can generate fine α[100] slip as well. The α2 phase deforms independently by α dislocation slip. Slipbands in the βo phase can shear the α2 phase by activatingc +a/2 slip on
and
slip planes, as well asa slip on higher order pyramidal planes, where the parallelism of the specific slip system is permitted by the Burgers relationship
between the two phases. 相似文献

Thermal-mechanical fatigue (TMF) and isothermal fatigue (IF) of a Ti-48Al-2V alloy and its composite, reinforced with TiB2 particles, were studied. In-phase TMF testing was conducted under the condition of a minimum temperatureT
min = 100 °C and a maximum temperatureT
max, which ranged from 750 °C to 1400 °C. The applied cyclic stress ranges were 2.8 to 28 MPa and 4.2 to 42 MPa. The IF tests
were carried out at aT
max. The TMF and IF lives are longer for lowerT
max and for smaller stress ranges in both the matrix alloy and its composite. The IF life at a givenT
max is shorter than the TMF life in the matrix alloy at all temperatures employed and in the composite only at higher temperatures.
At lower temperatures, the TMF and IF lives are essentially the same in the composite. The resistance to TMF is similar in
the matrix alloy and the composite, but the IF resistance is greater in the composite than in the matrix alloy. The proposed
TMF mechanism is nucleation and growth of voids on interlamellar plate, twin, and grain boundaries; their interlamellar, translamellar,
and intergranular linkage; intergranular separation; and disintegration of lamellar structure. 相似文献

The contradictory data on the formation of the microstructure of a refractory intermetallic Ti-46 at % Al-8 at % Nb alloy
and on the phase transformations proceeding within in the Ti-Al-Nb phase diagram are analyzed and improved experimentally.
To determine the primary solidified phase, a set of experiments is performed on melting of the alloy, which is synthesized
in a high-purity argon atmosphere using crucibles made of an oxygen-free ceramics (99.99% AlN), and subsequent rapid volumetric
isothermal solidification. Cooling from 1943 K at rates of 5, 10, and 20 K/s and subsequent quenching from 1763 K are used.
Polished sections of ingots are studied by scanning electron microscopy using backscattered electron mode. Scanning electron
microscopy micrographs demonstrate contrast regions of nonuniform niobium segregation, which are fixed by quenching and decorate
the primary polycrystalline microstructure formed in the temperature range from 1843 (liquidus) to 1773 K (solidus). The primary
crystalline phase is shown to be represented by β(Ti) dendrites, which have clearly pronounced fourfold symmetry that form
during the development of secondary arms. 相似文献

The point of maximum deformation resistance (minimum creep rate) and the subsequent softening (tertiary creep) can be modelled on the basis of the tranformation of the fully lamellar structure into the globular structure by dynamic recrystallization. The globular material contains a steady-state dislocation structure with subgrains of size w = 8bG/σ in fine grains of size d ≈ 2 w. As the volume fraction with globular structure increases with strain at the expense of the lamellar structure, the deformation resistance approaches the steady state resistance of the globular structure which is of the order of magnitude predicted by the natural creep law for a solid solution. 相似文献

Hydrogenation and dehydrogenation, that is, thermochemical processing (THP) and its variation with a post-heat treatment (THPH),
are investigated in order to improve the balance of strength, elongation, and fatigue strength of cast Ti-6Al-7Nb and Ti-6Al-4V
for dental applications. Microstructures of both cast alloys change from coarse Widmanst?tten α structure to super fine α structure with an average diameter of 3 μm by conducting THP or THPH. Tensile strength and fatigue limit of cast Ti-6Al-7Nb and Ti-6Al-4V increase by around 10 and
40 pct, respectively, as compared with those of both as-cast alloys. The balance of strength and ductility of cast Ti-6Al-7Nb
is improved by conducting THPH as compared with the case where THP is conducted. This improvement is due to the plastic deformability
of unstable β phase because the lattice constant of β phase in each alloy conducted with THPH is much greater than that of each as-cast alloy. 相似文献

The influence of hold time on low-cycle fatigue (LCF) of Ti-24Al-11Nb was studied at 650 °C. At 0.167 Hz, the alloy exhibits
cyclic hardening at all strain levels studied and obeys the well-known Manson-Coffin behavior. A 100-second hold at peak tensile
or compressive strain at ±0.6 pct strain has no observable effect on cycles to failure. For hold times at ±0.5 pct strain,
however, the fatigue lives are nearly halved and specimens show secondary cracking normal to the stress axis. The increase
in inelastic strain as a result of hold time appears to be primarily responsible for the observed loss in fatigue life. A
linear life fraction model, which considers both fatigue and creep damage, is found to provide good correlation of measured
lives with predictions. For the range of test conditions employed, the total and the tensile hysteretic energy per unit volume,
absorbed until fracture, remain nearly constant. The tensile hysteretic energy appears to be a more useful measure of fatigue
damage for life prediction.

Cast gamma titanium aluminides are gaining acceptance as potential replacements for superalloy and steel components in many
applications. One particular alloy with W, Mo, and Si additions has shown exceptional primary creep resistance. Quantitative
microscopic comparisons were made between microstructures in undeformed and deformed regions in creep specimens deformed to
strains between 0.1 and 1.5 pct strain, using optical microscope, scanning electron microscope (SEM), and transmission electron
microscope (TEM) techniques. As-hot isostatically pressed (“hipped”) and heat-treated (1010 °C for 50 hours) conditions were
compared. The as-hipped specimen had a higher lamellar volume fraction, and it crept more than 100 times faster. The lamellar
spacing in the lamellar grains systematically decreased by 15 to 35 pct, with increasing stress, during the first 0.1 to 2
pct strain. Precipitates containing W, Mo, and/or Si were observed in the deformed gage and undeformed grip sections of the
heat-treated specimens. Precipitation is nucleated by heat treatment, but, during creep deformation, a more homogeneous and
faster growth process occurs in the gage section than in the aged but undeformed grip section. The gage section had a 35 pct
higher precipitate volume fraction, but their average size was smaller. A lower volume fraction of lamellar grains and the
presence of precipitates account for the excellent creep resistance in the heat-treated alloy.
