The light weight of the high-performance structural material is the key for improving the performance of the aerospace engine, prolonging the service life of the aerospace engine and reducing the energy consumption and the cost, and the future sustainable development of the aerospace industry is directly determined. The TiAl-based alloy has the advantages of low density, high specific strength, excellent high-temperature oxidation resistance, creep resistance and the like, and meanwhile, the density of the TiAl-based alloy is about one half of that of the nickel-based superalloy, so that the TiAl-based alloy is a primary candidate material for replacing the nickel-based superalloy to realize the large-scale weight reduction of the aerospace engine. At present, the conventional service temperature of the nickel-based superalloy is more than 1000 ℃, but the high-temperature strength of the TiAl-based alloy at the temperature is insufficient, so that the nickel-based superalloy is difficult to completely replace to meet the performance requirement of the aerospace industry on high-temperature structural materials. Therefore, the high-temperature strength of the TiAl-based alloy is obviously improved, and the TiAl-based alloy is very important to the promotion of wide application in the aerospace field.
In order to improve the mechanical property of the TiAl-based alloy, scientific researchers at home and abroad introduce different types of second-phase reinforcements into the material, and the high-temperature ultimate strength of the material is improved by controlling the growth, distribution and volume fraction of the reinforcements.

Meanwhile, the rod-shaped TiB reinforcement has higher hardness and strength, can effectively pin tissue interface sliding at high temperature, and inhibits high-temperature creep of TiAl-based alloy; however, tiB is relatively brittle, which is unfavorable for improving the plasticity of the material. Therefore, further development of a technical means capable of achieving the comprehensive mechanical properties of the TiAl-based alloy is necessary.

1. the invention introduces a reinforcing structure (shown in figures 2-6) with reinforcing bodies distributed in a quasi-continuous net shape into the TiAl-based alloy. According to the H-S theory of the composite material, the mechanical property of the discontinuous net-shaped reinforced TiAl-based alloy can reach the upper limit of a theoretical value, and when the spherical soft phase is surrounded by the hard phase to form a capsule structure, the material has the highest elastic modulus, and can furthest exert the reinforcing effect of the reinforcing body and the toughening effect of the matrix, so that the comprehensive mechanical property of the material is improved. Therefore, the invention finally obtains the uniform reinforcing structure that the in-situ autogenous reinforcing body is connected with the TiAl matrix unit in a metallurgical bonding mode and is distributed in a quasi-continuous net shape around the matrix unit through regulating and controlling the growth and distribution of the reinforcing body and the volume fraction of the reinforcing body. For the independent matrix units, the reinforcement is encapsulated around the matrix units, and is uniformly distributed around the matrix units in a quasi-continuous net structure on the whole, so that the high-temperature mechanical properties of the TiAl-based alloy are remarkably improved.

In summary, the invention has the following technical advantages:
1. the invention introduces a reinforcing structure (shown in figures 2-6) with reinforcing bodies distributed in a quasi-continuous net shape into the TiAl-based alloy. According to the H-S theory of the composite material, the mechanical property of the discontinuous net-shaped reinforced TiAl-based alloy can reach the upper limit of a theoretical value, and when the spherical soft phase is surrounded by the hard phase to form a capsule structure, the material has the highest elastic modulus, and can furthest exert the reinforcing effect of the reinforcing body and the toughening effect of the matrix, so that the comprehensive mechanical property of the material is improved. Therefore, the invention finally obtains the uniform reinforcing structure that the in-situ autogenous reinforcement body is connected with the TiAl matrix unit in a metallurgical bonding mode and is distributed in a quasi-continuous net shape around the matrix unit through controlling the growth, distribution and volume fraction of the reinforcement body. For the independent matrix units, the reinforcement is encapsulated around the matrix units, and is uniformly distributed around the matrix units in a quasi-continuous net structure on the whole, so that the high-temperature mechanical properties of the TiAl-based alloy are remarkably improved.
2. The invention designs and introduces a multi-element blending quasi-continuous reticular reinforced structure with boride and carbide of different types and forms into TiAl-based alloy, and builds the quasi-continuous reticular reinforced structure in a basal body unit interface layer through in-situ autogenous reaction of B and C elements and a TiAl basal body. The rod-shaped and granular in-situ authigenic carbide reinforcement has good self-lubricating performance, and the dispersion distribution of the reinforcement can coordinate plastic deformation of a material while improving the strength of the TiAl-based alloy, but the capability of pinning interface sliding at high temperature is limited. In addition, the rod-shaped TiB reinforcement has higher hardness and strength, can effectively pin tissue interface sliding at high temperature, and inhibits high-temperature creep of TiAl-based alloy; however, tiB is relatively brittle, which is unfavorable for improving the plasticity of the material. In view of this, the present invention utilizes the synergistic effect between boride and carbide to stabilize the quasi-continuous network reinforcing structure while achieving toughening of the matrix unit interfacial layer, rather than providing a single strengthening or toughening effect, thereby achieving simultaneous elevation of yield strength and ultimate compressive strength of the material under high temperature service conditions.
3. The invention passes through micron-sized B 4 C realizes the synchronous introduction of polybasic boride and carbide reinforcing body by the in-situ autogenous of B 4 The special crystal structure and bonding mode of C regulate and control the combination process of B and C atoms and Ti and Al atoms, effectively solve the problems of aggregation, precipitation and coarsening of boride, promote the boride and carbide to be embedded into TiAl matrix units in the form of whiskers, and improve the integrity and connectivity of the matrix units.
4. The invention realizes micron-sized B by utilizing low-energy ball milling technology under the protection of high-purity argon atmosphere 4 The C powder is uniformly embedded on the surface of the spherical TiAl prealloy powder, does not damage the surface morphology of the spherical TiAl prealloy powder, is favorable for obtaining a complete quasi-continuous net-shaped reinforcing structure, greatly avoids oxidation of raw material powder, and reduces the danger and cost in the ball milling process.
5. The invention passes through micron-sized B 4 C introduces B and C elements, and utilizes in-situ autogenous synergism of the B and C elements to introduce polybasic mixed boride and carbide. Wherein, micron-sized B 4 The introduction cost of B and C elements is effectively reduced from the raw materials, and the introduction efficiency of B and C elements is improved; b and C have good compatibility with TiAl matrix, similar expansion coefficient, firm and stable combination with the matrix, and are favorable for improving the mechanical property of the materials.
6. The invention can change the micron-sized B 4 And C, controlling the volume fraction of the reinforcement by weight percentage, controlling the distribution of the reinforcement by regulating and controlling the low-energy ball milling process parameters, controlling the types of the reinforcement by regulating and controlling the components of the spherical TiAl prealloy powder and the sintering process parameters, and finally realizing the optimal regulation and control of the multi-element blending quasi-continuous net-shaped reinforcement structure.
