Definitions

  • This invention Relates to a TiAl -Ti3Al composite material for use as a raw material of parts required to have excellent heat resistance and toughness, for example, parts to move rotationally such as a gas turbine, a turbine blade of a jet engine and a turbocharger rotor, and parts to move reciprocally such as an engine valve, a piston and a valve rocker arm.
  • Ni based heat-resisting alloys have been used for the turbine blade, the rotor and so on, heat-resisting steels have been used for the engine valve, casting aluminum alloys have been used for the piston, and cast irons have been often used for the valve rocker arm.
  • titanium and titanium alloys are used as lightweight materials superior in strength in the field of aircraft industry Furthermore, TiAl -intermetallic compound based materials have attracted attention as lightweight materials having improved heat resistance.
  • Said TiAl -intermetallic compound based materials are light and excellent in heat resistance, however they do not get to the stage of practical application even now because of the poor toughness (ductility) at room temperature.
  • US-A-3,203,794 discloses binary Ti-(34-46%) Al alloys which exhibit a single phase, face-centred, tetragonal microstructure.
  • Ti-Al alloy having duplex phase structure is disclosed and it is described that the main phase is ⁇ -phase (TiAl) and globular ⁇ 2-phase (Ti3Al) is contained a little in said ⁇ -phase.
  • the present invention is made in view of the above mentioned problem of the prior art, it is an aim to provide TiAl -Ti3Al composite material having improved ductility at room temperature which has the excellent light weight and heat-resisting characteristics of TiAl -intermetallic compound, furthermore by using Ti3Al intermetallic compound.
  • the inventors have found out that the ductility is improved remarkably (the elongation of alloy at room temperature gets to 1.5% or more) in an alloy containing Ti3Al -intermetallic compound in a specified range in TiAl - intermetallic compound. This was determined by investigating the amount of Ti3Al -intermetallic compound and the strength in detail by X-ray diffraction and the tensile testing of ingots melted so as to contain aluminum in the range of 33.2 to 34.9% wt% in titanium.
  • the TiAl -Ti3Al composite material according to this invention has the construction that Al is contained in the range of 33.2 to 34.9% by weight percentage, the balance being Ti and unavoidable impurities, and wherein the TiAl-intermetallic compound contains 11.7 to 31% of fine lamellar Ti3Al-intermetallic compound by volume percentage.
  • the TiAl - Ti3Al composite material according to one of the preferred aspects of this invention has the construction that Al is contained from 33.2% to less than 34% by weight percentage, the balance being Ti and unavoidable impurities and wherein the TiAl-intermetallic compound contains from 15 to 31% of fine lamellar Ti3Al-intermetallic compound by volume percentage. It is characterized by adopting such a construction of TiAl -Ti3Al composite material as a means for solving the aforementioned problem.
  • TiAl -Ti3Al composite material In the TiAl -Ti3Al composite material according to this invention, Al is contained in the range of 33.2 to 34.9% by weight percentage, the balance is Ti and unavoidable impurities, and the TiAl-intermetallic compound contains 11.7 to 31% of fine lamellar Ti3Al -intermetallic compound by volume percentage. Tensile ductility of TiAl -intermetallic compound is at its highest when Ti3Al -intermetallic compound is contained in the range of 11.7 to 31%, preferably 15 to 31%, by volume percentage in TiAl -intermetallic compound at a state in which Ti3 Al-intermetallic compound is distributed finely in lamellar form.
  • Al content is defined in the range of 33.2 to 34.9% by weight percentage so that Ti3Al-intermetallic compound in the range of 11.7 to 31% by volume percentage in order to obtain excellent tensile ductility.
  • Said Ti3Al-intermetallic compound in TiAl -inter metallic compound is variable by not only the composition but also by heat treatment at the time of manufacturing. Namely, if TiAl -intermetallic compound solidified in a non-equilibrium state at the time of manufacturing is maintained at high temperature (more than 1100°C) for a long time, Ti3Al -intermatallic compound dissolves in TiAl -intermetallic compound, the amount of Ti3Al-intermetallic compound decreases, and Ti3Al-intermetallic compound coheres and becomes gross, so that the deterioration of ductility is induced. Accordingly, it is undesirable to perform the heat treatment for a long time at high tempetature in excess of 1100°C. In the case of a heat treatment at 1150°C, for example, it has been found that it is desirable not to exceed 8 hours or so.
  • the TiAl -Ti3Al composite material according to this invention contains 33.2 to 34.9% of Al by weight percentage and the balance is Ti and unavoidable impurities, wherein the TiAl-intermetallic compound contains 11.7 to 31% of Ti3Al-intermetallic compound by volume percentage, so Ti3Al-intermetallic compound is dispersed in proper quantity in TiAl -intermetallic compound. Consequently, said Ti3Al -intermetallic compound dispersed in proper quantity in TiAl -intermetallic compound produces a remarkable improvement in toughness (especially ductility) of TiAl-intermetallic compound which is lightweight and excellent in heat resistance.
  • Ti-Al alloys having chemical composition shown in Table 1 as Nos.1 to 10 were melted in an atmosphere of Ar using a plasma skull crucible furnace, and then cast into ingots of approximately 5 kg in weight.
  • comparative alloy No.6 short of Al content, which is less than 33.2% by weight percentage, is remarkably inferior in the ductility due to Ti3Al -intermetallic compound being in excess.
  • comparative alloy No.8 containing more Al than that of alloy No.7 has inferior mechanical strength and ductility because Ti3Al -intermetallic compound content is lower.
  • the TiAl -Ti3Al composite material according to this invention contains 33.2 to 34.9% of Al by weight percentage and the balance is Ti and unavoidable impurities, wherein the TiAl-intermetallic compound contains 11.7 to 31% of Ti3Al - intermetallic compound by volume percentage. Therefore, it is lightweight and excellent in heat resistance, more over excellent in mechanical strength and elongation. And it is a composite material suitable for a raw material of rotational parts required to have heat resistance and toughness such as a turbine blade and a turbocharger rotor. An excellent effect is obtained in that it results in a weight reduction.
