Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of additive manufacturing and high-entropy alloy, in particular to a refractory high-entropy alloy powder material, a preparation method and application thereof in additive manufacturing.
Background
Refractory superalloy has gained widespread attention throughout the world due to its excellent high temperature resistance, and is believed to lead to a revolutionary transformation in the superalloy field. The NbMoTaW refractory high-entropy alloy is reported by Senkov team in air force laboratory in the United states for the first time in 2010, and can keep stable phase structure and structure at 1400 ℃, still has outstanding comprehensive mechanical properties at high temperature of 1600 ℃, and has far super-nickel-based superalloy with yield strength, specific yield strength and other high-temperature mechanical properties at above 1000 ℃.
However, most refractory high entropy alloys have not been reasonably coordinated between strength and formability. The NbMoTaW refractory high-entropy alloy has poor room-temperature plasticity and severe brittleness (the room-temperature compressive strain is only 2.1 percent), and the fracture is quasi-cleavage fracture, so that the machinability is extremely poor. Therefore, the existing preparation modes of arc melting, powder metallurgy and the like of refractory high-entropy alloy have great limitations: the defects of insufficient size, simple shape, poor processability and the like of the prepared refractory high-entropy alloy severely limit the further popularization and application of the refractory high-entropy alloy.
The additive manufacturing has the advantages of near net forming, short production flow, controllable local shape and the like, and has unique advantages in part weight reduction design, rapid iteration design and high-performance manufacturing. Due to the characteristic of near net shape formation of the technology, the bottleneck of complex structure preparation of refractory high-entropy alloy can be well solved. However, the refractory high-entropy alloy has great room temperature brittleness and great solid state cooling temperature interval (high melting point) resulting in difficult stress control, so that the additive manufacturing of the refractory high-entropy alloy has extremely high difficulty. If the NbMoTaW refractory high-entropy alloy powder material suitable for additive manufacturing can be designed and prepared, the preparation of large-size components of the NbMoTaW refractory high-entropy alloy can be realized, the method can be effectively promoted to be popularized and applied in the field of high-temperature structural materials, and a solid new-generation material support is provided for the innovation and development of new-generation equipment in important fields such as aerospace vehicles, power devices, nuclear reactors, power generation equipment and the like.
The pursuit of good toughness matching of NbMoTaW refractory high-entropy alloys, in particular improvement of room temperature brittleness, is an important pursuit goal. The refractory high-entropy alloy is high in strength and fragile at room temperature, and is difficult to promote strengthening by mechanical processing induced deformation, and the currently adopted method is still mainly optimized in composition. At present, the material design for NbMoTaW refractory high-entropy alloy mainly aims at an arc melting process, a solid-phase sintering process and the like, and lacks a material and powder material design method special for the characteristic of rapid unbalanced solidification of additive manufacturing. In order to solve the cracking and forming problems caused by brittleness of refractory high-entropy alloy in the process of rapid unbalanced cooling in laser additive manufacturing, the key parameters such as the components and the grain size range of the powder material need to be specially designed.
Accordingly, those skilled in the art have focused their efforts on developing a refractory high-entropy alloy powder material suitable for additive manufacturing and methods of application that are very important to drive its application.
