Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of additive manufacturing nuclear materials, and particularly relates to a component design and preparation strategy for refining grains and eliminating anisotropism of stainless steel in additive manufacturing.
Background
Additive manufacturing technology is a preparation method for controlling alloy layer-by-layer printing through a computer program, and can provide extremely high freedom degree in the manufacturing process, so that components with various complex geometric shapes can be manufactured. Additive manufacturing is thus leading a number of industries, such as aerospace, automotive, biomedical and energy, into a new era of manufacturing. Compared with the traditional manufacturing technology, the additive manufacturing technology can greatly shorten the production period and reduce the material cost. In addition, the alloy obtained by the additive manufacturing technology undergoes rapid solidification and repeated heating processes in the preparation process, and the special microstructure provides a new idea for solving the tough synergy problem.
However, during rapid cooling of additive manufacturing, the sample observed a large number of columnar crystals and texture phenomena in a direction parallel to the printing direction. The presence of columnar crystals can lead to anisotropy in properties and increase the cracking sensitivity of the alloy. Therefore, the formation of columnar crystals has become a problem to be solved in the industrial process of manufacturing alloys by additive manufacturing.
Common methods for achieving grain refinement or equiaxed grain structure in additive manufactured alloys are to adjust process parameters and scanning strategies, to add inoculants to create a large number of heterogeneous nuclei, or by adjusting chemical components in the additive manufactured alloy to alter solidification paths.
Although columnar grain growth may be prevented by printing process parameters or scanning strategies, grain refinement is inefficient. In addition, although proper microstructure and excellent mechanical properties can be obtained by adding inoculant, powder mixing is difficult to ensure uniformity of components, and uneven distribution of inoculant can lead to inconsistent microstructure of the matrix.

TABLE 3 comparison of grain size for some examples of the invention and comparative examples
The microstructure of the additive manufacturing 316L stainless steel in the embodiment of the invention is parallel to the printing direction, the columnar crystal structure is not observed, the columnar crystal direction isometric crystal transformation is realized, no obvious holes and cracks are observed, the density is more than 99.9%, and the grain size is less than 23 mu m. Fig. 2 is a graph showing the engineering stress-engineering strain curve versus the printing direction (H) and the printing direction (V) of the 316L stainless steel alloy materials for additive manufacturing of example 1, example 3 and comparative example 2 according to the present invention. From the tensile property test, it was revealed that the mechanical property difference in the H direction and the V direction was smaller for the example sample than for the comparative example sample.
Examples 1,2 and comparative examples 3 and 4 were identical in composition, but slightly different in printing parameters, focusing mainly on three parameters of laser power, scanning speed and hatch distance. Examples 1 and 2 are controlled within the scope of the claims of the present invention, the sample density can reach more than 99.9%, and the occurrence of defects is avoided. However, the scanning speed of comparative example 3 was too low, resulting in too high a laser energy density input into the molten pool, and occurrence of keyhole defects. In contrast, in comparative example 4, the energy density inputted into the molten pool was too low due to the too high scanning speed, and the metal powder was not sufficiently melted, and the incomplete fusion defect occurred.
Examples 3,4 and 5 are respectively added with proper amounts of BCC stabilizing elements Mo, si and Cr on the basis of example 1, the content is in the scope of the claims, cr eq/Nieq of a sample is improved, so that a primary ferrite mode is realized in the solidification process of a matrix, the sample can finish columnar crystal orientation equiaxed crystal transformation, the refinement of crystal grains is realized, and the problem of anisotropy in performance in the original additive manufacturing stainless steel is improved.
In comparative example 1, cr element was excessively added beyond the standard range of 316L, so that a large amount of ferrite phase was finally present in the molded sample, which was not in conformity with the austenitic matrix of 316L.
In comparative example 2, ni element was added to reduce Cr eq/Nieq of the sample, so that the matrix realizes a primary austenite mode in the solidification process, the sample can realize epitaxial growth of crystal grains at the boundary of the molten pool, a large number of columnar crystals can be observed on the section parallel to the printing direction, and the tensile property figure 2 reflects the apparent anisotropic behavior in mechanical properties in comparative example 2.
In addition, the comparative example 4 is a 316L stainless steel sample subjected to complete recrystallization treatment, and has a microstructure similar to that of an as-cast 316L stainless steel sample, and the yield strength in the H direction is 231.02MPa which is far lower than 398.91-466.46MPa in the embodiment, so that compared with the traditional casting technology, the additive manufacturing technology realizes the improvement of the mechanical property of the 316L stainless steel.
Therefore, the invention realizes the columnar crystal orientation equiaxial crystal change of the additive manufacturing 316L stainless steel in the direction parallel to the printing direction (as shown in figure 1) by utilizing the additive technology and optimizing the alloy components and the printing parameters, ensures good alloy compactness, inhibits the generation of holes and cracks, realizes isotropy in structure and performance (as shown in figure 2), and effectively improves the original mechanical property of the alloy. The novel strength is given to the application of the additive manufacturing stainless steel in the energy industry.
The foregoing detailed description of embodiments of the invention has been presented to enable one of ordinary skill in the art to make and use the invention. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications can be made to these embodiments without affecting the spirit of the invention, and that various changes and modifications within the scope of the claims.
