TiAl基合金的高温塑性变形行为

采用Gleeble-1500热模拟机在变形温度为1 000～1 150 ℃、应变速率为10~(-3)～10~0 s~(-1)的变形条件下,研究Ti-47Al-2Cr-0.2Mo(摩尔分数,%)合金的热变形行为.利用光学显微镜和扫描电子显微镜分析合金在不同变形条件下的组织演化规律.结果表明:流变应力随着应变速率提高和变形温度降低而增大;在变形过程中,流变应力随着变形量增大而增大,当流变应力达到峰值后趋于平稳,表明合金在变形过程中发生了动态再结晶;热变形过程的流变应力可采用双曲正弦本构关系来描述,平均激活能为337.75 kJ/mol;从合金的组织演化过程中可以看出,合金中不均匀的原始组织得到明显均匀化,变形后的组织是由α_2/γ层片晶团和γ晶粒组成的双态组织,在α_2/γ层片晶团和γ晶粒的晶界交界处发现分布均匀的B_2相,并且随着变形温度升高B_2相数量逐渐减少.

Plastic deformation behavior of TiAl based alloy at high temperature

The hot deformation behaviors of the Ti-47Al-2Cr-0.2Mo (mole fraction, %) alloy were studied with a Gleeble-1500 machine at 1 000-1 150 ℃ with the strain rate of 10-3-100 s-1. The microstructural evolution of the alloy was investigated by optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The results indicate that the flow stress of the alloy increases with increasing strain rate and decreasing deformation temperature. The flow stress increases with increasing strain until the stress reaches the peak value, then the flow stress remains constant, which indicates that dynamic recrystallization happens during deformation. The flow behaviors are described by the hyperbolic sine constitutive equation, and the activation energy calculated is 337.75 kJ/mol. The as-forged microstructure consists of refined α_2/γ and γ grains, and the grains are much homogeneous than before. The B_2 phase distributes uniformly at the grain boundary of α_2/γ and γ grains. The B_2 phase decreases with increasing deformation temperature.
