Definitions

  • ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A ternary metal composite containing about 5085 percent, by Weight, beryllium, about 10.5 to 35 percent, by weight, aluminum and about 4.5 to percent, by weight, silver.
  • the present invention relates to composites of beryllium-aluminum-silver and more particularly to means and methods for providing such composites through liquid phase sintering.
  • Liquid phase sintering differs from the several other types of sintering techniques in that the sintering of the compact is carried out in the presence of a liquid phase.
  • Liquid phase sintering encompasses raising the temperature of the compressed powder metal constituents to a temperature wherein a predetermined amount of the liquid phase appears.
  • the solid In the liquid phase, one of the metal constituents, the solid, is progressively dissolved in the other metal constituent, the liquid.
  • the quantities of these constituents are such that, at equilibrium, some solid phase always exists. It is thought that the liqquid wets the solid so as to bring about favorable surface energies existing between the liquid and the solid thereby permitting solution into the liquid phase.
  • the present invention prevents the expulsion of the liquid from the specimen by using an agency to intervene in the sintering stage.
  • the agency either breaks down the oxide film on the beryllium or segregates to the metal oxide interface and lowers the surface energy of the liquid metal with respect to the beryllium oxide film so that the liquid metal progressively dissolves the solid metal.
  • the agency can be called a fluxing agent or flux, however, the agent has other characteristics which assist in wetting beryllium so as to surround the beryllium with a ductile envelope phase of an aluminum-silver-beryllium alloy matrix metal thereby avoiding the expulsion of the liquid from the specimen.
  • Beryllium has several desirable physical features which make it attractive for a variety of applications such as lightweight gears, lightweight fasteners, airplane parts or the like.
  • beryllium has one major drawback which has seriously limited its commercial acceptance, that is, beryllium is inherently brittle at room temperature.
  • beryllium alloys might be fabricated by pressing and sintering a mix of metal powders.
  • such a method results in expulsion of the matrix metal or metals from the beryllium specimen and the eventual freezing of the matrix metal or metals into globs on the surface of the solid specimen. It is thought that the expulsion of the matrix metal or metals is due to the surface energies of the solid beryllium and the various liquids formed. The unfavorable surface energy equilibrium is believed to be due to a tough, tenacious film of beryllium oxide which is present on each particle of beryllium.
  • the ductility is due to the resulting microstructure of the composite.
  • the 85 percent, by weight, beryllium composite showed a considerable amount of particle contiguity and would represent, it is thought, an upper limit on the percent by weight of beryllium contained by the composite. Although no sagging was observed in the percent by weight of beryllium composite, a further decrease in beryllium content would raise, it is thought, the density value of the composite to a value of little interest.
  • the aluminum and the silver are in a ratio of a least 50 parts aluminum by weight in this ratio as the beryllium content of the composite is modified within the hereinbefore disclosed limits. It is thought that the ratio of aluminum to silver may be varied without having any substantial adverse effect on the properties of the composite.
  • Alkali and alkaline earth halogenide agents such as lithium fluoride-lithium chloride or the like in a determined ratio are utilized to segregate to the solid interface of the beryllium particle and either break down the film on the particle of beryllium and/or alter the liquid-solid surface energy in the system.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide a ductile beryllium composite having alow. density andhigh strength.
  • Another object of thBPIESGDflIIVCHllQHIS to'provide a ductile beryllium composite having a matrix phase that is heat treatable.
  • a further object of'the present invention is to provule a ductile compositeof berylliumin which beryllium is the predominate ingredient.
  • Another object of the. present invention is to provide a 1 means and method of producing a ductile composite of I beryllium-aluminumsilver whose .microstructure consistsof berylliumparticles surrounded by a ductileenvelope A phase of an aluminurnsilver-.beryllium alloy matrix metal.
  • Yet another object of the present invention is to provide a ductile composite of. beryllium-aluminum silver contain from a berylliumspecimen.
  • Still 'another'object of the present inventionisto provide alkali and alkaline earthhalogenide agents used in the fabrication of a beryllium composite.
  • Another-object of the present invention is to provide a composite of berylliurn alurninum-silver that. may be sin tered to substantially theoretical density.
  • Yet another object of the present invention i'sto provide I a'rneans and method whereby a'du'ctile' beryllium composite may be successfully fabricated in both a practical and economical manner.
  • Afurther object of the present invention 'isto provide a lithium fluoride-lithium chloride agent for promoting liquid phase sintering in aberyll-ium, aluminum, andsilver mix.
  • Yet still another object of the present invention is to provide a lithium fluoride-lithium chloride agent wherein the constituents are used in a predetermined ratio.
  • the present invention in another of its aspects, relates to novel features of the instrumentalities of the invention described herein for teaching the principal object of the invention and to the novel principles employed in the instrumentalities whether or not these features and principles may be used in the said object and/or in the said field.

  • a beryllium base compact is fabricated by any suitable means such as powder metallurgy techniques.
  • a suggested method utilizing this technique is to mix beryllium powder with an alloy of aluminum-silver or the elemental powders and an agent of equal parts of lithium fluoride-lithium chloride.
  • the powders are blended and mixed by ball milling the metal powders and the flux agent.
  • the blended and mixed powders are compacted to form a green compact by accepted metallurgical methods such as by compacting within the confines of a dies or a hydraulic or an automatic press or by placing the powders in a rubber or a plastic mold and compacting in a hydrostatic press.
  • the green compact is sintered in a non-oxidizing atmosphere such as argon or the like at a temperature of about 1000 centigrade to about 1100 centrigrade. It is seen that the range of the sintering temperatures is below the 1277 centigrade melting point temperature of beryllium but above the 620 centigrade melting point temperature of the aluminum-silver alloy.
  • the aluminum-silver alloy will dissolve smaller beryllium particles and will dissolve the surfaces of the larger beryllium powder particles thereby surrounding the remaining beryllium particles with a ductile envelope phase of aluminum-silver-beryllium alloy during sintering of the compact.
  • the agent lithium fluoride-lithium chloride, either breaks down the oxide film on the beryllium or segregates to the metal oxide interface lowering the surface energy of the liquid metal with respect to the beryllium oxide film. Simply, the agent causes the liquid to wet the beryllium.
  • FIGURE 2 shows a beryllium specimen 20 having on the surface thereof an expelled alloy 21 of aluminum-silver-beryllium. Specimens from which the aluminum-silver-beryllium alloy has been expelled have gross porosity and as a result are weak, brittle, and of little commercial value.
  • composition of the agent utilized is about 50 parts, by weight, of lithium fluoride to about 50 parts, by weight, of lithium chloride.
  • the agent provides an action, such that, upon heating or sintering of the pressed powder mix to the temperature at which the liquid phase forms, expulsion of the melt from the specimen is eliminated. Furthermore, it was found that solution of the beryllium into the alloy was enhanced as evidenced by the rounded particles of beryllium in the microstructure.
  • lithium fluoride-lithium chloride agent should exceed 0.5 percent, by weight, of the total of all metal additions. It would appear that the optimum range of the agent is from about 0.5 percent to about 2.0 percent, by weight, of the total of all metal additions. It is believed that the quantity of lithium fluoride-lithium chloride agent required is related to the amount necessary to cover the total beryllium surface area. Hence, the minimum amount of agent needed 'would be a function of the surface area of the beryllium powder. The utilization of lithium fluoride-lithium chloride agent in other than equal parts is possible. It is thought, however, that an equal parts mixture achieves optimum results.

  • the compo-s ite was sintered to between about 88 and 92 percent of its theoretical density by a single sinter and achieved about 96 percent of theoretical density by a double repress and an intermediate re-liquid phase sinter.

  • the beryllium and the matrix metal deform continuously under load.
  • FIGURE 1 An aluminum-silver phase diagram is illustrated in FIGURE 1.
  • Silver is an effective material for hardening aluminum.
  • the theory of the deformation of dispersed particle composite materials states that ductility in such a composite will be enhanced when the constrained flow stress of the matrix phase can be made as equal as possible to the flow stress of the dispersed particles.
  • silver is used to harden aluminum.
  • the phases present in the beryllium-aluminum-silver system at room temperature consist of beryllium particles dispersed in an aluminum-silver matrix in which some residual zeta phase containing 40' atomic percent aluminum may be dispersed.
