Detailed Description
The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and examples.
Low-cost preparation of Ni-Ni3A method of Si eutectic authigenic composite materials, comprising:
Wherein Si is bulk Si with a purity of 99.999% as a raw material, Ni is Ni particles with a purity of 99.99% as a raw material, and the content of Ni is less than or equal to 88%, and the content of Si is more than or equal to 12%
And 2, preparing the prepared Ni and Si into a Ni-Si hypereutectic alloy ingot through vacuum induction melting.
According to the equilibrium phase diagram of the Ni-Si binary alloy, the intermetallic compound Ni with low density, high strength and oxidation resistance is generated when the Ni-Si binary alloy is solidified near the eutectic point3Si, and after the Si and the Ni are compounded to generate eutectic reaction, the fracture toughness and the creep resistance of the material are improved. From the temperature during smelting, the melting point of metal Ni is higher, the melting point of simple substance Si is low, and the temperature at the eutectic point after compounding is 1143 ℃, which is lower than the melting point of metal Ni, thereby being more beneficial to smelting. Comprehensively considering and selecting alloy components near the eutectic point of Ni-Si for smelting. Specifically, the Ni-Si binary alloy is smelted in a vacuum induction smelting furnace with high-purity Ar atmosphere at the temperature of 1143 ℃ to prepare the Ni-Si hypereutectic alloy ingot.
Formation of Ni as described above3Si intermetallics undergo an inclusion reaction and a eutectoid reaction during cooling. Inclusion reaction Ni + alpha → beta-Ni3Si is in the primary phase Ni3Local areas where Si contacts the secondary phase a occur. Eutectoid reaction of Ni3Si→β-Ni3Primary phase Ni of Si + gamma3The growth morphology of Si can be substantially maintained up to room temperature.
Meanwhile, the rare metal Ni is expensive, and the hypereutectic alloy components near the eutectic point of Ni-Si are comprehensively considered and selected for smelting to obtain the intermetallic compound Ni3And the proportion of Ni in the alloy is reduced and the preparation cost of the material is reduced while Si is contained.
Lateral heat dissipation is avoided by the Bridgman directional solidification process, a large temperature gradient is generated in the alloy melt close to the solid-liquid interface, the melt obtains heat flow in a single direction perpendicular to the solid-liquid interface, and a stable crystallization core is not arranged in the alloy melt in the front end direction of crystal growth. The solidification structure of the obtained Ni-Si hypereutectic composite material subjected to Bridgman directional solidification is a lamellar microstructure which is regularly arranged, fine in spacing and uniform.
The Ni-Si hypereutectic authigenic composite material tissue prepared by Bridgman directional solidification generates metastable phase Ni due to non-equilibrium solidification31Si12The hardness and brittleness of the material are increased.
Wherein the Bridgman directional solidification is carried out under the condition of high temperature gradient, the temperature gradient is 150-200K/cm, the directional solidification rate is adjustable within the range of 0.1-900 mu m/s, and the vacuum degree is 4.0 multiplied by 10-2Pa, the precision of lifting data is +/-2 mu m/m, and the precision of lifting data of the Ni-Si hypereutectic alloy sample is +/-2 mu m/s.
In the invention, the Bridgman directional solidification is carried out at a solidification rate of 6-40 μm/s. When the solidification rate is 6-40 mu m/s, the alloy solidification structure is in a regular lamellar shape, the solidification rate is increased, the supercooling degree is increased, and the metastable phase content is increased.
The Ni-Si hypereutectic in-situ composite material prepared by Bridgman directional solidification has the advantages that the unidirectional heat flow of the directional solidification inhibits the formation of transverse grain boundaries, so that the fatigue resistance and high-temperature creep resistance of the material are improved. At the same time, addition of ductile metal Ni makes Ni3The brittleness of the Si intermetallic compound is improved, so that the material has excellent high-temperature comprehensive mechanical properties.
Step 4, metastable phase Ni31Si12The presence of (2) gives the material high hardness and brittleness to Ni-Ni3The Si eutectic autogenous composite is disadvantageous, inter alia, owing to suitable heatTreatment of Ni in metastable phase31Si12Eliminating to obtain Ni-Ni with even lamellar microstructure and good comprehensive performance3Eutectic structure of fully lamellar Si, i.e. Ni-Ni3The Si eutectic authigenic composite material.
Because, when the Bridgman directional solidification rate is increased, the Bridgman directional solidification Ni-Si hypereutectic authigenic composite material structure metastable phase Ni31Si12The content of the Ni-Si eutectic in-situ composite material is increased, so that the Ni-Si hypereutectic in-situ composite material with the Bridgman directional solidification rate of 40 mu m/s is selected for heat treatment to ensure that the metastable phase Ni31Si12Is eliminated to obtain Ni-Ni3Full lamellar eutectic structure of Si, i.e. Ni-Ni3The Si eutectic authigenic composite material has guiding significance for the heat treatment process of the material and the elimination of metastable phase at low solidification rate. Wherein the heat treatment process is carried out in a high-temperature vacuum tube furnace, the temperature range of the heat treatment process is 950-1050 ℃, the heat preservation is carried out, and then the furnace is cooled to the room temperature.
The microstructure of the metal material determines the mechanical property of the metal material, and as the full lamellar microstructure can generate larger crack tip strain, different crystal orientations and crystal structures at two sides of a lamellar phase interface can also prevent cleavage cracks from crossing the phase interface, thereby increasing the crack propagation resistance, the lamellar eutectic structure has better high-temperature mechanical properties such as high-temperature creep resistance, fracture resistance, room-temperature plasticity and the like. In the invention, the Rockwell hardness of the Ni-Si hypereutectic in-situ composite material is 58.53-64.33 HRC, the Vickers hardness is 678.86-825.46 HV, and the metastable phase Ni is eliminated by heat treatment31Si12Then, the Bridgman directional solidification and solidification rate is 40 mu m/s Ni-Ni3The Rockwell hardness of the Si eutectic authigenic composite material is 46.5HRC, and the Vickers hardness is 428 HV. (variable range values), see, Ni-Ni3After proper heat treatment, the hardness of the Si hypereutectic authigenic composite material is obviously reduced, and the comprehensive performance is obviously improved.
The principle of the invention comprises: in the case of Bridgman-oriented solidification, since solidification is carried out under non-equilibrium conditions, non-equilibrium solidification is carried out at a constant temperatureNi which is a stable phase with Gibbs free energy ratio in the presence of pressure, components and the like3Higher Si phase Ni31Si12Then, there must be a driving force to make the atom reach the activated state in the structure transformation process, once the atom reaches the activation energy barrier, the atom must reach the final state with lower energy, at this moment, metastable phase Ni31Si12Transformation into stable Ni3A Si phase. Therefore, the metastable phase Ni can be obtained by heat treatment of the directionally solidified Ni-Si hypereutectic in-situ composite material31Si12Transformation into stable phase Ni3And (3) Si. The metastable phase Ni can be completely eliminated by a proper heat treatment process31Si12Obtaining Ni-Ni of full lamellar eutectic structure3The Si eutectic authigenic composite material meets the actual use requirement. The selection of alloy components has great influence on the compound components and crystal forms of the final solidification structure, and the Ni-Si alloy has various compound forms at room temperature, and can generate an intermetallic compound Ni with low density, high strength and oxidation resistance when being solidified near a eutectic point3Si, according to the equilibrium phase diagram of the Ni-Si binary alloy, the component composition range is enlarged, the Ni proportion is reduced, and the Ni-Si hypereutectic alloy is prepared, so that the material preparation cost is reduced.
FIG. 2 is a vacuum induction melting morphology diagram of a Ni-Si eutectic alloy, FIG. 3 is a Bridgman directional solidification Ni-Si eutectic in-situ composite material structure morphology diagram, and it can be seen from FIG. 2 that the Ni-Si binary eutectic alloy structure without directional solidification is an irregularly arranged dendritic structure and is thick. The heat dissipation of the Ni-Si eutectic alloy solution along all directions is almost the same during vacuum induction melting, crystals grow freely along all directions to present a dendritic crystal structure, and the alloy crystals do not obtain a high temperature gradient during the vacuum melting process, so that the enough growth time of the crystals is given, and the structure is relatively thick. The structure of the directionally solidified Ni-Si eutectic alloy is shown in FIG. 3, and it can be clearly seen that the directionally solidified Ni-Si eutectic alloy sample has lamellar microstructure with regular arrangement, fine and uniform spacing. This is because the directional solidification process avoids lateral heat dissipation, and produces a large temperature gradient in the alloy solution near the solid-liquid interface, so that the solution obtains a heat flow perpendicular to the single direction of the solid-liquid interface, and the alloy solution in the direction of the crystal length front end has no stable crystal core.
According to the invention, the Bridgman directional solidification rate is 6-40 μm/s, and when the solidification rate is 6-40 μm/s, the prepared material tissue has a regular lamellar structure, as shown in (a), (b), (c) and (d) in fig. 4 and fig. 5. The structure consists of alpha-Ni phase and eutectic phase Ni-Ni3Si phase and metastable phase Ni31Si12And (4) forming. alpha-Ni phase and Ni in eutectic structure3The Si layers are alternately grown in a sheet shape. When the eutectic crystallizes, the alpha-Ni phase and Ni3The two phases of Si phase grow side by side, and the growth direction of the two phases and the solid-liquid interface keep a macroscopic flat interface. With lamellar Ni-Ni3Ni-Ni of Si eutectic structure3The Si authigenic composite material has excellent high-temperature creep resistance, fracture resistance and room-temperature plasticity.
