通过多级热处理实现选区激光熔化Ti-6Al-4V合金强度与塑性平衡

Realizing Strength and Plasticity Balance of Selective Laser Melting Fabricated Ti-6Al-4V Alloy through Multi-stage Heat Treatment

  • 摘要: 选区激光熔化(Selective laser melting, SLM)制造Ti-6Al-4V合金通常表现出高强度与低延展性,需要通过热处理将针状α′马氏体分解为平衡的α+β相来获得优异的力学性能。本研究在优化SLM成形工艺参数的基础上,系统研究了多级热处理对Ti-6Al-4V合金显微组织与拉伸性能的影响。实验结果表明,在最佳工艺参数下,SLM制备Ti-6Al-4V合金的相对密度为99.66%。经应力消除、固溶时效、热等静压处理后,Ti-6Al-4V合金获得了近等轴β晶粒内α集束组成的魏氏组织,相比SLM制造Ti-6Al-4V合金柱状β晶粒内的针状α′马氏体,屈服强度降低252MPa,抗拉强度降低312MPa,断裂伸长率提高8~9%,拉伸性能满足ASTM F2924-14的指标要求,实现了强度与塑性的平衡。

     

    Abstract: Selective laser melting (SLM) manufacturing of Ti-6Al-4V alloy typically exhibits high strength and low ductility, requiring heat treatment to decompose acicular α′ martensite into balanced α+β phases to achieve excellent mechanical properties. Based on optimizing SLM forming process parameters, this study systematically investigated the effect of multi-stage heat treatment on the microstructure and tensile properties of Ti-6Al-4V alloy. The experimental results demonstrated that the Ti-6Al-4V alloy fabricated through SLM exhibits a relative density of 99.66% under the optimal process parameters. After undergoing stress relieving, solution-aging, and hot isostatic pressing treatments, the Ti-6Al-4V alloy obtained a Widmanstädter structure consisting of α colony within nearly equiaxed β grains. In comparison to the acicular α′ martensite within the columnar β grains of SLM-manufactured Ti-6Al-4V alloy, the yield strength and tensile strength decreased by 252 MPa and 312 MPa, respectively, while the elongation at break increased by 8-9%. The tensile properties meet the requirements of ASTM F2924-14, achieving a balance between strength and ductility.
