Method for improving strength and low-temperature wear resistance of FeMnCoCr high-entropy alloy
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of high-strength wear-resistant alloy materials, and particularly relates to a method for improving the strength and low-temperature wear resistance of FeMnCoCr high-entropy alloy.
Background
High entropy alloys, also known as multi-principal element alloys, which are composed of components of various elements in equal or near equal atomic ratios, exhibit a number of unique advantages over conventional alloys due to the fact that several properties of the high entropy alloys are initially attributed to entropy-driven phase stability, resulting in entropy maximization as a prevailing design rule, as compared to conventional metal alloys based on one or two main elements.
The face-centered cubic high-entropy alloy is generally considered to have excellent plasticity, but the strength, the hardness and the like of the alloy are not satisfactory, the yield strength is only 200-300 MPa generally, and the application of the high-entropy alloy is seriously influenced. Strengthening and toughening of face-centered cubic alloys has become an important issue. The addition of a small amount of interstitial atoms to the alloy system is considered to be an effective alloy strengthening and toughening means.
The metastable state high-entropy alloy is a novel alloy which is emerging at present, and is different from the traditional single-phase alloy in that a series of phase changes can occur after the alloy system is subjected to the action of external force and the like due to the addition of phase-unstable elements in the alloy system, so that the mechanical property of the alloy is influenced. Such as Fe 50 Mn 30 Co 10 Cr 10 The metastable high-entropy alloy matrix phase is metastable FCThe C-gamma phase can generate FCC → HCP phase transformation after being applied with external force, and the HCP-epsilon phase is considered to improve the plasticity of the alloy, thereby improving the mechanical property of the alloy.
The material not only works in normal temperature environment, but also is often used in extreme environments such as low temperature, high temperature and the like. At present, national important projects related to low-temperature service of materials, such as polar scientific research, extraterrestrial planet detection and the like, are proposed successively, and the demand for high-performance low-temperature materials is more and more urgent.
At present, the friction and wear performance research on high entropy alloys is mainly focused on room temperature and high temperature environments, and the friction and wear performance and mechanism thereof at low temperature are only studied a few times. The FeMnCoCr series high-entropy alloy is considered by extensive researchers to have good low-temperature mechanical properties, but the friction of the material under the low-temperature working condition still remains a problem to be solved urgently.
Based on the method, the method for improving the strength and the low-temperature wear resistance of the FeMnCoCr high-entropy alloy is provided.
Disclosure of Invention
The technical problem to be solved by the invention is to provide a method for improving the strength and the low-temperature wear resistance of the FeMnCoCr high-entropy alloy aiming at the defects of the prior art, wherein the alloy can generate martensite phase transformation from FCC-gamma phase to HCP-epsilon phase when being stretched at room temperature, so that the plasticity of the alloy is improved; the addition of a small amount of interstitial B atoms can improve the strength of the alloy due to the interstitial solid solution strengthening effect; proper alloy processing and manufacturing process can further refine alloy grains and improve alloy strengthThe original HCP phase in the alloy ensures that the alloy has higher hardness and reduces the abrasion of the alloy. The alloy is rubbed at low temperature, the martensite phase transformation from FCC-gamma phase to HCP-epsilon phase is generated on the surface of the alloy under the action of friction stress, the HCP phase with higher hardness prevents the further abrasion of the alloy, and the problems in the background art are solved.
In order to solve the technical problems, the invention adopts the technical scheme that: a method for improving the strength and the low-temperature wear resistance of FeMnCoCr high-entropy alloy comprises the following steps:
determining the mass of each element and the additionally added B element according to the molar ratio of each element of the alloy, uniformly mixing, and then smelting and casting to obtain an alloy ingot;
carrying out hot rolling on the alloy ingot, and carrying out air cooling to obtain an alloy plate;
removing the oxide skin on the surface of the alloy plate, then cold-rolling to obtain an alloy crude product, and performing heat treatment on the alloy crude product to obtain the high-entropy alloy with the target component.
Further, the FeMnCoCr high-entropy alloy comprises the following components in molar ratio: fe: 45% -55%, Mn: 25% -35%, Co: 5% -15%, Cr: 5 to 15 percent, and the weight of the additionally added B element is 10 to 250 ppm.
Further, smelting is carried out in a vacuum induction smelting furnace, specifically, elements of the alloy and the element B which are uniformly mixed are smelted in an inert gas atmosphere, then the obtained alloy mother ingot is cast by a copper mold, and after casting, the temperature is kept at 1100-1300 ℃ for 1-3 h to obtain the alloy ingot.
Further, the hot rolling of the alloy ingot is specifically to immediately hot-roll the alloy ingot after heat preservation with a hot rolling reduction of 97%, hot-roll the alloy ingot to a thickness of 3mm, and air-cool the alloy ingot to room temperature to obtain a hot-rolled and cooled alloy sheet.
Further, after removing the oxide skin on the surface of the alloy sheet by pickling, the alloy sheet is cold-rolled to a thickness of 1.5mm at a reduction ratio of 50% to obtain an alloy crude product.
Further, the heat treatment of the alloy crude product is to place the alloy crude product in a heat treatment furnace at 650-900 ℃, preserve heat for 1 hour, and then cool the alloy crude product by water to obtain the high-entropy alloy with the target component.
Furthermore, the obtained high-entropy alloy structure of the target component presents a dual-phase structure with coexisting FCC phase and HCP phase, B atoms in the high-entropy alloy exist in the alloy in a form of interstitial solid solution, and the high-entropy alloy can generate martensite phase transformation from the FCC phase to the HCP phase under the action of external force.
Furthermore, through component design, the high-entropy alloy is in a metastable state, and the alloy undergoes the martensite phase transformation from an FCC phase to an HCP phase in the process of low-temperature friction, so that the wear resistance of the alloy is improved.
Furthermore, the yield strength of the obtained high-entropy alloy with target components reaches 449MPa, and the wear rate of the wear resistance of the alloy at minus 120 ℃ reaches 7.35 multiplied by 10 -5 mm 3 /(m·N)。
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the following advantages:
1. in the alloy composition design, Fe and Mn elements regulate the stacking fault energy and the phase stability of the FCC-gamma phase, so that the FCC-gamma phase is easier to generate phase change under the action of thermal activation or external force to generate an HCP-epsilon phase, and Co and Cr elements can stabilize the HCP phase generated by phase change. Thus, at the molar ratios of the alloying elements of the present invention, the alloy ultimately exhibits FCC-HCP dual phase characteristics.
2. According to the invention, by means of Thermo-Calc software, the change of the existence form of B atoms with the alloy components after the B atoms with different contents are added is calculated, and theoretical guidance is provided for the performance improvement of the alloy.
3. The invention provides a method for effectively improving the alloy performance, which avoids the segregation of alloy components and eliminates the casting defects such as holes and the like caused by casting by heat preservation and hot rolling after obtaining an alloy ingot; the acid washing after the hot rolling removes an oxide layer formed in the hot rolling process, and avoids alloy cracking in the subsequent cold rolling process; the cold rolling process further refines alloy grains, is beneficial to obtaining a fine alloy structure and improves the comprehensive performance of the alloy; the heat treatment at different temperatures determines the optimal heat treatment parameters of the alloy, and partial martensite transformation in the quenching process after the heat treatment is the only method which can cause the alloy to form the dual-phase high-entropy alloy.
4. The high-strength low-temperature wear-resistant high-entropy alloy provided by the invention is added with B atoms, and the proper amount of B atoms can improve the bearing capacity of each interface by improving the cohesion of the alloy grain boundary and lead to grain refinement in the heat treatment process. Compared with FeMnCoCr high-entropy alloy without adding strengthening elements, the yield strength and the low-temperature wear resistance of the high-entropy alloy are improved to different degrees, and the crystal grains of the alloy are further refined by matching with a proper machining and manufacturing process, so that the strength of the alloy is further improved.
5. The high-strength low-temperature wear-resistant high-entropy alloy provided by the invention has excellent mechanical properties at room temperature. The high-entropy alloy provided by the invention is a metastable state high-entropy alloy, and can generate martensite phase transformation from an FCC-gamma phase to an HCP-epsilon phase after being subjected to the action of external force, so that the plasticity of the alloy is improved.
6. The high-strength low-temperature wear-resistant high-entropy alloy provided by the invention has excellent wear resistance at low temperature. Under the condition of low temperature, the stacking fault energy of the alloy is reduced along with the reduction of the temperature, so that the phase transformation of the alloy at the low temperature is promoted, and the generation of HCP (hydrogen phosphate) phase is facilitated. HCP phases, on the other hand, may make the alloy more wear resistant at low temperatures due to their high hardness properties. So that the alloy has the characteristics of lower temperature and higher wear resistance in a certain temperature range.
