简介:采用扩散偶实验方法研究Fe含量对Ti6Al4V合金显微组织和性能的影响。通过制作Ti6Al4V-Ti6Al4V20Fe扩散偶,在1000°C经600h扩散退火,在一个样品内获得具有连续成分梯度的合金。结合电子探针、扫描电镜和纳米压痕,确定Ti6Al4VxFe合金成分-组织-硬度的关系。当合金中Fe含量增加到5%(质量分数)时,时效状态下合金中的α相体积分数降低到55%,同时合金具有最高的硬度,Ti6Al4V5Fe合金将是Ti6Al4VxFe体系中最具前景的合金。HAADF-STEM和XRD结果表明,Ti6Al4V5Fe合金在固溶淬火阶段生成纳米尺寸α''层片,这些亚稳的α''层片在随后的时效过程中逐渐长大,并作为α相的形核核心,形成稳定α相。
