Description

Forging method of ultra-high-strength and high-toughness TB18 titanium alloy large-size bar
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of nonferrous metal processing, and particularly relates to a forging method of a TB18 titanium alloy large-size bar with ultrahigh strength and toughness, which is particularly suitable for producing a TB18 titanium alloy large-size bar (phi is not less than 100mm and not more than 400mm) with good structural uniformity.
Background
The existing high-strength titanium alloy mainly comprises TC18, Ti1023, Ti55531 and the like, after heat treatment, the strength can reach 1100-1200 MPa, and the fracture toughness can reach 50-60 MPa.m1/2On the other hand, although the mechanical properties of the alloy are relatively high, the requirement of the aviation field on ultrahigh-strength and high-toughness titanium alloy is still difficult to meet, and the alloy is required to have the strength of more than 1280MPa and the fracture toughness of not less than 65 MPa.m1/2And the like, and has good comprehensive mechanical properties. Particularly, the key bearing members of the aviation equipment, such as bearing frames and beams on the airframe, are the 'ridge beams' of the aircraft, and play an important role in ensuring the development and capacity of the aviation equipment.
Based on the reasons, the inventor independently develops the ultra-high strength and high toughness titanium alloy TB18 (the nominal component is Ti-4Al-5Mo-5V-5Cr-1Nb), which is a typical metastable beta type titanium alloy, the phase change point of the alloy is about 800 ℃, the alloy is prepared by trial production of small-specification bars through the traditional forging method, the structural uniformity of the alloy is good through detection, and the mechanical property of the alloy can completely meet the requirement of a key bearing component of aviation equipment.
However, with the establishment of advanced warplanes and mass transport in China and the development of large commercial airplanes, the requirement for large-diameter materials is increased, so that the specification requirement for the bars is increased, and in order to meet various performance indexes of aviation equipment, the performance requirement for large-size bars is not reduced, but the inspection standard for small-size bars is adopted. Therefore, when the specification of the required bar is larger and larger, the high requirement on the preparation level of the large-specification bar is provided, particularly for the large-specification TB18 titanium alloy bar with the diameter of 100mm and phi of 400mm, the deformation temperature of the alpha + beta phase region is about 40-60 ℃ below the phase change point, the forging temperature is lower, the deformation resistance of the two phase regions is increased violently, the forging permeability of the deformation center is poor, the deformation rate is higher, the overheating of the material is easy to cause, if the deformation rate is lower, the uniformity of the tissues of different parts is poorer, the deformation is smaller or the heating temperature is higher, and the good tissue refining effect is difficult to realize. That is, according to the conventional forging method for producing small-size TB18, a large-size bar of the ultra-high strength and high toughness titanium alloy TB18 cannot be produced.
In view of the above, the present inventors propose a forging method for a large-sized TB18 titanium alloy bar with ultra-high strength and toughness, so as to overcome the defects in the prior art.
