Description

Preparation method of high-uniformity NbTi alloy ingot
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of nonferrous metal processing, and particularly relates to a preparation method of NbTi (niobium-titanium) alloy ingots with phi of 280-640 mm.
Background
Since 1911, Dutch physicist K. Onnas discovered superconducting properties, it was discovered that tens of metals and nearly 4000 alloys and compounds were superconducting. Since the discovery of superconductivity, the superconducting technology is developed at a high speed and is widely applied to high-tech fields such as high-energy physics, controlled thermonuclear fusion, energy storage, magnetic suspension, nuclear magnetic resonance and the like. The superconducting material is the basis of the superconducting technology, and the application range and the application degree of the superconducting technology are closely related to the superconducting material.
NbTi alloy is the most widely used superconducting material at present due to its high mechanical properties and excellent superconducting properties. The melting point of Nb element is up to 2410 ℃, the density is up to 8.57g/cm3, while the melting point of active metal Ti is only 1687 ℃, the density is only 4.50g/cm3, the difference between the melting point and the density of the two is large, and the risk of Nb unfreezing block is large; meanwhile, due to the difference between the component density and the melting point, the alloy is easy to generate component segregation, and the X-ray detection shows that the alloy is black spot. At present, an ingot of niobium-titanium alloy is usually prepared by mixing titanium sponge and niobium scraps to prepare an electrode for smelting for multiple times. However, the preparation method still has the phenomena of Nb unfreezing blocks, black spots and the like.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to provide a preparation method of NbTi alloy ingot with the specification of phi 280-phi 640mm, which solves the problems of Nb fritting failure and uneven components in the ingot.
In order to realize the aim, the technical scheme adopted by the invention is a preparation method of a high-uniformity NbTi alloy ingot, which comprises the following preparation steps:
1) preparing the titanium sponge and the niobium rod according to the proportion;
2) preparing a titanium electrode block: pressing titanium sponge to form a titanium electrode block, wherein grooves penetrating through two opposite side ends of the titanium electrode block are formed in one surface of the titanium electrode block;
3) assembling the consumable electrode: assembling and welding a plurality of titanium electrode blocks and niobium rods to form a rod-shaped consumable electrode, wherein the consumable electrode is in a structure that the titanium electrode blocks are wrapped on the peripheries of the niobium rods;
4) and smelting the prepared consumable electrode for three times to obtain an NbTi alloy ingot.
In the step 1), the content of the titanium element is 40-60 wt%.
In the step 2), the pressure strength of the titanium electrode block formed by pressing the titanium sponge is 10-30 MPa.
In the step 3), a plurality of titanium electrode blocks are sequentially distributed to form a strip-shaped groove; placing a niobium rod in the strip-shaped groove; covering the titanium electrode blocks and the niobium rods which are arranged well with the titanium electrode blocks corresponding to the titanium electrode blocks to form a structure that the outer peripheral surface of the niobium rod is wrapped with the titanium electrode blocks; and welding the assembled titanium electrode block and the niobium rod to form the consumable electrode.
In the step 4), smelting for the first time: vacuum before melting is 5.0Pa, melting voltage is 30-40V, melting current is 8-30 KA, air leakage rate is controlled to be below 1.2Pa/min, arc stabilizing current adopts direct current of 3-18A, cooling time after melting is more than or equal to 3 hours, and flat head treatment is carried out on the cast ingot after melting is finished;
smelting for the second time: turning around and smelting the cast ingot subjected to flat head treatment; the vacuum before melting is 2.0Pa, the melting voltage is 30-45V, and the melting current is 10-30 kA; controlling the air leakage rate to be below 1.0Pa/min, adopting alternating current of 5-20A for arc stabilizing current, and cooling for more than or equal to 4 hours after smelting; performing flat head treatment on the cast ingot after the smelting is finished;
smelting for the third time: turning around and smelting the cast ingot subjected to the flat head treatment after the second smelting; 1.0Pa of vacuum before melting, 32-45V of melting voltage and 8-30 kA of melting current; the air leakage rate is 0.8Pa/min, the arc stabilizing current is 8-25A alternating current, and the cooling time after smelting is more than or equal to 5 hours.
And during the third smelting, the mode of reducing the input power step by step is adopted to keep the depth of the molten pool stable.
And during the third smelting, the arc stabilizing period is kept between 5 and 300 s.
And during the third smelting, the input power is reduced step by step in the feeding stage, and the bottom of the second smelting ingot is completely remained on the auxiliary electrode after the smelting is finished.
The first smelting crystallizer is phi 160-440 mm, the second smelting crystallizer is phi 220-560 mm, and the third smelting crystallizer is phi 280-640 mm.
According to the niobium-titanium alloy ingot, the Ti element is introduced in a sponge titanium form, the Nb element is introduced in an Nb rod form, and the content of the Ti element in the NbTi alloy is 40-60 wt%.
The consumable electrode is manufactured in a mode that the peripheral surface of a niobium rod is wrapped with titanium metal, and the niobium metal is assembled into the consumable electrode in an integral rod shape, so that the phenomenon that niobium is not melted in a niobium-titanium alloy ingot is avoided. The principle lies in that when the niobium scrap and titanium metal mixed material is adopted to manufacture the electrode, the formed density is not high as that of a niobium rod. When in smelting, the highest melting point of an arc region reaches 4700 ℃, an electrode block added in a Nb scrap mode is difficult to reach a sufficiently compact state, and the Nb scrap falls into a molten pool before being melted in the smelting process. Since the lower bath temperature is only 100 c (about 2300 c) above the melting point of the NbTi alloy, the melting point of pure niobium reaches 2477 c. Once the Nb shavings fall into the molten pool, it is difficult to fully alloy, resulting in the formation of Nb-unfrozen cakes. And the Nb rod mode is adopted to be introduced into the consumable electrode, the density of the Nb rod is high, and the situation that chips fall off during melting can not occur, so that the phenomenon that Nb is not melted in ingot casting can be avoided.
And smelting for three times is adopted, and the depth of a molten pool is kept stable by adopting a mode of reducing input power step by step in the third smelting. The arc stabilizing period is kept between 5 and 300 seconds, and the stirring intensity in the molten pool is ensured to be proper and uniform. And in the feeding stage, the input power is further reduced step by step, and the bottom of the niobium-titanium alloy ingot is completely remained on the auxiliary electrode after the smelting is finished. The smelting process can ensure that niobium-titanium metal is fully melted and uniformly mixed, and the condition of ingot casting black spots is avoided.
The invention has the beneficial effects that: the invention provides a preparation method of a high-uniformity NbTi alloy ingot, which solves the problems of Nb fritting failure and black spots by changing the structural form of raw materials and changing the distribution mode and the smelting times of a consumable electrode, realizes the engineering batch production of the NbTi alloy ingot, and can provide high-quality NbTi ingots for the fields of ITER projects, medical MRI equipment and the like.
