Description

Method for regulating and controlling obdurability and failure mode of TiZrHfNbTa system refractory high-entropy alloy
Technical Field
The invention particularly relates to a method for regulating and controlling the obdurability and failure mode of a TiZrHfNbTa system refractory high-entropy alloy, belonging to the field of metal materials.
Background
The high-entropy alloy is a novel multi-principal-element alloy designed based on the concept of 'entropy', provides a brand-new idea for designing alloy components, and provides a revolution opportunity for customizing materials meeting different application requirements. The refractory high-entropy alloy is a material widely researched in high-entropy alloys, mainly comprises Ti, zr, hf, ta and other high-melting-point elements, and has good application prospect in the field of warhead structural materials due to the advantages of high density and high strength.
The materials of the components of the warhead are generally required to have good obdurability and be adjustable in a large range so as to meet the service requirements of various detonation/high-speed impact loading. Taking the blast-killing warhead fragment as an example, the fragment material requires that the structure is kept complete after detonation loading, the mass loss is less in the penetration process, the material is required to have high toughness, and the fragment is required to be fully crushed after penetration in order to realize high after-effect damage, which is in contradiction with high toughness.
The refractory high-entropy alloy reported at present, such as TiZrHfTa alloy, has high density and high strength, but has poor plastic deformation capability, is easy to break under detonation loading, and has low effective fragment rate. A Xue Yunfei team of Beijing university of science and engineering designs and prepares a Ti-Zr-Hf-Nb-Ta system high-entropy alloy in an early stage, which has high toughness characteristics and can meet detonation loading, but the localized shear failure is easy to occur under high-speed impact, so that the broken alloy after the impact is insufficient, and the subsequent damage power is limited. In a word, the existing refractory high-entropy alloy has limited regulation and control on obdurability, and the dual requirements of detonation loading and full crushing after invasion are difficult to meet by the failure mode of localized shearing.

Further, the Ti a Zr b Hf c Nb d Ta e M x In the refractory high-entropy alloy, a is not less than 25 and not more than 50,5 and not more than 20,5 and not more than c and not more than 30,5 and not more than d and not more than 20, e is not less than 15 and not more than 35,0 and not more than x and not more than 5, a + b + c + d + e + x =100, and b + c is not less than 15 and not more than 50.
Further, M is one or more of Al, cr, cu and Mo.

Has the advantages that:
(1) In the regulation and control method, on one hand, the added M element and the TiZrHfNbTa system refractory high-entropy alloy component have relatively negative mixed enthalpy and are easy to form a second phase, and the difference between the atomic radiuses of the M element and the refractory high-entropy alloy component is relatively large, so that a precipitated phase is easy to segregate at a crystal boundary; on the other hand, the optimization of preparation process parameters can regulate and control the content, the form and the precipitation position of a precipitated phase, and the controllable change of the toughness and the failure mode of the TiZrHfNbTa system can be realized based on the regulation and control of the microstructure.
(2) In the regulation and control method, along with the change of the content of the M element, the content and the distribution state (continuous or discontinuous distribution) of the interface precipitated phase also change, so that the plasticity, the failure mode and the like of the refractory high-entropy alloy are changed along with the change; in addition, because the atomic sizes of the M elements are different, the solid solution strengthening of the refractory high-entropy alloy by different M elements has obvious difference, and therefore the regulation range of the obdurability can be further increased through the selection of the types of the M elements and the regulation and control of the content of the M elements.
(3) According to the regulating method, the precipitated phase is completely dissolved back through solid solution treatment, then the content and distribution of the second phase can be effectively controlled through aging treatment, particularly, the content of the second phase at the crystal boundary of the alloy can be increased and distributed densely through optimizing aging temperature and aging time, so that the toughness of the alloy is continuously changed, the failure mode of the alloy gradually tends to uniform fracture along the crystal from crystal-crossing shear fracture, and uniform fracture under high-speed impact is realized.
(4) The regulation and control method provided by the invention is used for carrying out microstructure design on the refractory high-entropy alloy by utilizing the delayed diffusion effect of the refractory high-entropy alloy and combining the solid solution and aging treatment processes, realizes toughness regulation in a large range, is controllable in failure mode in an impact environment, is simple to operate, and is suitable for industrial production.

According to the dynamic compression test results, the dynamic yield strength of the alloy 1-300-4 is 1670MPa, and the corresponding fracture strain is 50%, as shown in FIG. 4. In addition, as can be seen from fig. 5, after the dynamic compression test, the fracture of 1-300-4 is 2 parts along the direction of the maximum shear stress, and the fracture mainly has the characteristic of transgranular ductile fracture.
