机械球磨对Ti/Al混合粉末组织和热稳定性影响的研究

为了探索一种制备高综合性能TiAl基金属间化合物的新方法，研究了机械球磨对Ti、Al粉末微观组织及其热稳定性的影响，结果表明，在机械球磨的作用下Al粉末晶粒以高于Ti的速率细化，最终形成局部含少量Ti 纳米晶的非晶，但在整个过程中未发现Ti、Al元素相互扩散形成Ti-Al金属间化合物中间相；不同球磨时间作用下的Ti/Al粉末中贮有不同的能量，且随时间的延长而增加，以非晶化粉末最为显著，内能的增加是由于机械合金化过程引入了大量的微观缺陷所致，对不同球磨时间的粉末进行热处理显示，球磨时间的增加可大幅度降低形成Ti-Al金属间化合物的温度，球磨75h的复合粉末甚至在350℃，保温1h即可转变成金属间化合物。

Sintering behavior of mechanically alloyed Ti-48Al-2Nb aluminides

Ti-Al intermetallics have been produced using mechanical alloying technique. A composition of Ti-48Al-2Nb at % powders was mechanically alloyed for various durations of 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100 h. At the early stages of milling, a Ti (Al) solid solution is formed, on further milling the formation of amorphous phase occurs. Traces of TiAl and Ti₃Al were formed with major Ti and Al phases after milling at 40 h and beyond. When further milled, phases of intermetallic compounds like TiAl and Ti₃Al were formed after 80 hours of milling and they also found in 100 h milled powders. The powders milled for different durations were sintered at 785°C in vacuum. The mechanically alloyed powders as well as the sintered compacts were characterized by XRD, FESEM and DTA to determine the phases, crystallite size, microstructures and the influence of sintering over mechanical alloying.     

Thermal stability and phase formation of mechanically alloyed Ti-Al-Si-C powders

Two quarternary Ti-Al-Si-C powder mixtures, 55Ti-27Al-12Si-6C and 55Ti-36Al-6Si-3C, were mechanically alloyed. The as-alloyed and heated powders have been characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). XRD patterns showed diffuse halos of amorphous like phase for 20-40 h milled powders, but TEM examinations demonstrated that the 40 h milled powders were mainly composed of Ti solid solutions, with some amount of amorphous phase. SEM observations displayed that the lamellar structures of Ti and Al formed at the early stage of milling process subsequently led to the formation of nano- or sub-micrometer particles of homogeneous composition after prolonged milling to 40 h. It is deduced that the solid-stated reaction by inter-diffusion of components should be responsible for phase formation during mechanical alloying. DSC curves of the 40 h milled powders exhibited two sharp exothermal peaks, and the investigation on thermal stability of the 40 h milled powders indicated that Ti₅Si₃ was first formed at lower temperature, followed by Al₂Ti₄C₂and TiC at intermediate temperature (820°C), and these phases were stable at elevated temperatures. These results raise the possibility of synthesizing TiAl-based composite with titanium silicides and titanium carbides as reinforcements by proper selection of powder compositions.

Microstructure evolution and interface structure of Al-40 wt% Si composites produced by high-energy ball milling

High silicon content Al-Si composites with a composition of Al-40 wt% Si were fabricated via a highenergy ball milling method. The microstructure evolution of Al-40 wt% Si milled powders and sintered composites has been thoroughly studied by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, energydispersive spectrometry and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. The mechanism of ball milling Al-40 wt% Si powders has been disclosed in detail: fracture mechanism dominating in the early stages, followed by the agglomeration mechanism, finally reaching the balance between the fragments and the agglomerates. It has been found that the average particle sizes of mixed Al-Si powders can be refined to the nanoscale, and the crystallite sizes of Al and Si have been reduced to 10nm and 62nm upon milling for 2h–50h, respectively. The finally formed Al-Si interfaces after ball milling for 50h are wellcohesive. A dense and homogenous Al-40 wt% Si composite have been achieved by solid-state sintering at550?C. The results thus provide an effective support for producing bulk nanostructured Al-Si composites.     

Contribution of Ti addition to characteristics of extruded Cu40Zn brass alloy prepared by powder metallurgy

The aim of this paper was to investigate the properties of Cu40ZnTi for the purpose of developing a new high-strength, lead-free brass by powder metallurgy. The effect of Ti addition on precipitation hardening behavior of Cu40Zn (denoted as BS40) brass was studied with respect to mechanical properties and microstructures. BS40 and Cu40Zn − 1.0 wt.%Ti (denoted as BS40-A) brass powders were prepared by water atomization process, and β phase was retained in the raw powders predominately. The BS40 powder and Ti powder were elementally mixed to prepare Cu40Zn + 0.5 wt.%Ti (denoted as BS40-B) and Cu40Zn + 1.0 wt.%Ti (denoted as BS40-C) premixed powders. The alloy powders and premixed powders were solidified at 1053 K for 600 s by spark plasma sintering (SPS) and extruded subsequently. It was observed that Cu₂ZnTi intermetallic compound (IMC) and CuZnTi metastable phase resulted from the reaction between Ti and CuZn showed distinct grain refinement effect on extruded Cu40Zn brass. Thus, the excellent strengthening effect processes by precipitation hardening and deform working was obtained, which responding to an yield strength of 345 MPa, and a ultimate tensile strength of 597 MPa, showed 65.9% and 30.4% higher than that of extruded Cu40Zn brass, respectively.

Synthesis of nanocrystallite by mechanical alloying and in situ observation of their combustion phase transformation in Al3Ti

Elemental powders of stoichiometric Al₃Ti were mechanically alloyed (MA) in order to investigate the phase formation during the milling process. Furthermore the stability of MA powders were studied under transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results indicate that a supersaturated Al(Ti) solid solution with nanocrystalline size has been formed after mechanical alloying for 360 ks in consuming the elemental powders of Al and Ti and no further phase transformation can be detected upon longer milling. The MA powders are unstable being irradiated by electron beams under the TEM observation, exothermically forming various intermetallic compounds. The combustion phase transformation processes and products are depending on the time of mechanical alloying. The structural changes and phase transformations during both mechanical alloying process and annealing process were also characterized by using X-ray diffraction measuring.

为获得高能球磨时间和退火温度对TiNi机械合金粉特性的影响机制,采用X射线衍射(XRD)、扫描电子显微镜(SEM)、X射线能谱仪(EDS)、差示扫描量热法(DSC)等分析方法对TiNi合金粉进行了研究。结果表明,机械合金的相成分随着在氩气保护气氛中的球磨时间和退火温度的不同而发生变化。球磨22h的产物是非晶态TiNi合金、Ti的固溶体、Ni的固溶体,球磨27h的产物是非晶态TiNi合金粉和Ni固溶体相,球磨30h发生了明显的固相反应,生成了TiNi、Ni3Ti、Ti3Ni4等物相;在650℃/5h和1000℃/5h下的退火产物都是Ni3Ti、Ti2Ni、TiNi2、TiNi和TiC,但在上述2个退火温度下TiNi并不是主要物相,其中在650℃退火时TiNi的含量明显更低。

Mechanical alloying behavior of Ti6Al4V residual scraps with addition of Al2O3 to produce nanostructured powder

The present investigation has been based on production and subsequent comparison of different physical, mechanical and thermal properties of nanostructured Ti6Al4V and Ti6Al4V/Al₂O₃ powders by means of high energy ball milling. In this regard, the structural and morphological changes of powders were investigated by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and microhardness measurements. The results revealed that ball milling process reduced the grain size of Ti6Al4V and Ti6Al4V + 10 wt% Al₂O₃ to approximately 20 and 15 nm, respectively. For both compositions also a remarkable change in morphology and particle size occurred during ball milling of powders with different compositions. Moreover, phase evolution during milling and heat treatment was taken into consideration. The as-milled Ti6Al4V + 10 wt% Al₂O₃ powder exhibited higher microhardness (∼900 Hv) comparing to as-milled Ti6Al4V (∼536 Hv) and as-received samples (∼400 Hv).
