HALBZEUG AUS EINER ALPHA/ALPHA2 -TITANLEGIERUNG UND VERFAHREN ZU SEINER HERSTELLUNG HALF TOOL FROM AN ALPHA / ALPHA2 TITANIUM ALLOY AND METHOD FOR THE PRODUCTION THEREOF
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Halbzeug auf der Basis von α-Titan und intermetallischer Phasen des Legierungssystems Titan- Aluminium nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 sowie ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines Bauteils oder einer Bauteilkomponente für einen Verbrennungsmotor nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 5.The invention relates to a semifinished product based on α-titanium and intermetallic phases of the alloy system titanium-aluminum according to the preamble of claim 1 and a method for producing a component or a component component for an internal combustion engine according to the preamble of claim 5.
Aus der DE 100 24 343 Al ist bekannt, Bauteile für Verbrennungsmotoren auf der Basis von intermetallischen γ- TiAl-Legierungen herzustellen. Diese Legierungen sind mehrphasig aufgebaut und enthalten neben dem geordneten tetragonalen γ-TiAl als Hauptphase das geordnete hexagonale ct2-Ti3Al . Sie zeichnen sich aus durch vorteilhafte mechanische und thermophysikalische Eigenschaften bei geringem spezifischem Gewicht. Der AI-Anteil dieser Legierungen liegt typischerweise bei 40-50 Atom-%.From DE 100 24 343 Al is known to produce components for internal combustion engines based on intermetallic γ- TiAl alloys. These alloys are multiphase and contain, in addition to the ordered tetragonal γ-TiAl as the main phase, the ordered hexagonal ct 2 -Ti 3 Al. They are characterized by advantageous mechanical and thermophysical properties at low specific weight. The Al content of these alloys is typically 40-50 atomic%.
Weiterhin ist aus der WO 2004/079237 A2 eine TiAl-Legierung bekannt, die sich durch einen hohen AI-Anteil auszeichnet und sich die Aushärtung durch die α2-Phase zunutze macht. Eine solche Legierung hat allerdings einen hohen Anteil an ß-Phase stabilisierenden Elementen, die sich negativ auf die Hochtemperatureigenschaften auswirken . Ganz allgemein werden bei kommerziell erhältlichen TiAl- Legierungen durch die Zugabe von ß-Phase stabilisierenden Elementen zweiphasige Legierungen (α/ß) erzeugt, die bei niedrigen und mittleren Temperaturen eine gute Festigkeit aufweisen. Da sich die kubisch raumzentrierte ß-Phase (aufgrund eines höheren Diffusionskoeffizienten) bei höheren Temperaturen leichter verformt als die α- und α.2-Phase, ist die Hochtemperaturfestigkeit dieser Legierungen begrenzt.Furthermore, a TiAl alloy is known from WO 2004/079237 A2, which is characterized by a high Al content and makes use of the curing by the α 2 phase. However, such an alloy has a high proportion of β-phase stabilizing elements, which have a negative effect on the high-temperature properties. More generally, in the case of commercially available TiAl alloys, the addition of β-phase stabilizing elements produces biphasic alloys (α / β) which have good strength at low and medium temperatures. As the cubic body-centered ß-phase (due to a higher diffusion coefficient) deforms more easily at higher temperatures than the α- and α. 2 phase, the high temperature strength of these alloys is limited.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, auf der Basis des Ti-Al-Legierungssystems einen Werkstoff für Bauteile und Bauteilkomponenten in Verbrennungsmotoren vorzuschlagen, der sich durch geringes spezifisches Gewicht, eine besonders hohe Steifigkeit und große Festigkeit bei höheren Temperaturen auszeichnet. Weiterhin soll ein Verfahren zur Herstellung von Bauteilen und Bauteilkomponenten aus einem solchen Werkstoff bereitgestellt werden.The invention has for its object to propose a material for components and components components in internal combustion engines based on the Ti-Al alloy system, which is characterized by low specific gravity, a particularly high rigidity and high strength at elevated temperatures. Furthermore, a method for the production of components and component components is to be provided from such a material.
Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die Merkmale der Ansprüche 1 und 5 gelöst.The object is achieved by the features of claims 1 and 5.
Danach wird zur Herstellung der Bauteile und Bauteilkomponenten ein Halbzeug aus einer α-Titanlegierung mit einem Anteil von 40-50 Vol.-% α2~Phase (Ti3Al, geordnete hexagonale Phase) und 50-60 Vol.-% α-Phase verwendet. Das Halbzeug kann außerdem bis zu 1 Vol.-% Suizide und in geringen Anteilen (bis zu 1 Vol.-% bei Betriebstemperatur) ß-Phase enthalten.Thereafter, a semifinished product of an α-titanium alloy with a proportion of 40-50 vol .-% α2 ~ phase (Ti 3 Al, ordered hexagonal phase) and 50-60 vol .-% α-phase is used to produce the components and component components , The semifinished product may additionally contain up to 1% by volume of suicides and in minor proportions (up to 1% by volume at operating temperature) of β-phase.
Der Werkstoff des Halbzeugs setzt sich vorzugsweise aus 8 - 10 Gew.-% Al; 0,2 - 5,0 Gew.-% Nb; 0,1 - 1,0 Gew.-% Mo; 0,1 - 2,0 Gew.-% Si; 0,2 - 4,0 Gew.-% Zr; 0,1 - 1,0 Gew.-% B und dem Rest Ti zusammen. Eine solche Legierung hat ein geringes spezifisches Gewicht und eine feinkörnige lamellare Gefügestruktur. Als besonders vorteilhaft hat sich eine Zusammensetzung von 9 Gew.-% Al; 0,5 Gew.-% Nb; 0,5 Gew.-% Mo; 0,5 Gew.-% Si und den restlichen Gew.-% Ti herausgestellt.The material of the semifinished product is preferably composed of 8-10% by weight of Al; 0.2-5.0% by weight Nb; 0.1-1.0 wt% Mo; 0.1-2.0% by weight of Si; 0.2-4.0 wt% Zr; 0.1-1.0 wt% B and the balance Ti together. Such an alloy has a low specific gravity and a fine-grained lamellar Microstructure. Particularly advantageous is a composition of 9 wt .-% Al; 0.5% by weight of Nb; 0.5% by weight of Mo; 0.5 wt% Si and the remaining wt% Ti exposed.
Bauteile aus den erfindungsgemäßen α-Titanlegierungen weisen eine Streckgrenze > 1000 MPa bei Raumtemperatur, > 550 MPa bei 600° C und > 250 MPA bei 800° C auf. Ihr E-Modul liegt bei Raumtemperatur bei > 125 GPa. Da die erfindungsgemäßen Legierungen auch bei hohen Temperaturen eine erhöhte Steifigkeit und hohe Festigkeit aufweisen, eignen sie sich insbesondere als Werkstoff für Bauteile und Bauteilkomponenten in Verbrennungsmotoren, die im Betrieb hohen thermischen und mechanischen Belastungen ausgesetzt sind. Aufgrund des hohen Al-Gehalts und des geringen Anteils an schweren Legierungselementen haben die erfindungsgemäßen Legierungen eine niedrige Dichte (etwa 4.35 g/cm3). Durch den sehr niedrigen Gehalt an ß-Phase stabilisierenden Elementen wird die Ausprägung von ß-Phase unterbunden, was zu einer hohen Warmfestigkeit führt. Es bilden sich jedoch Bereiche aus, in denen eine Anreicherung an ß-Phase stabilisierenden Elementen vorliegt, was zu vielen festigkeitssteigernden inneren Grenzflächen führt. Das in der erfindungsgemäßen Legierung enthaltene Si führt zu einer effektiven Mischkristallverfestigung und bildet feine Suizide; dies hat eine Festigkeitssteigerung im gesamten Temperaturbereich zur Folge. Bei Betriebstemperatur der Motorenbauteile (d.h. zwischen 600° C und 800° C) ist die ß-Phase also unterbunden; der Anteil der α2-Phase beträgt bei 600° C vorzugsweise > 30 Vol.-% und bei 800° C vorzugsweise > 5 Vol.-%.Components made from the α-titanium alloys according to the invention have a yield strength> 1000 MPa at room temperature,> 550 MPa at 600 ° C. and> 250 MPA at 800 ° C. Its modulus of elasticity is> 125 GPa at room temperature. Since the alloys according to the invention have increased rigidity and high strength even at high temperatures, they are particularly suitable as material for components and component components in internal combustion engines which are exposed to high thermal and mechanical stresses during operation. Due to the high Al content and low content of heavy alloying elements, the alloys of the present invention have a low density (about 4.35 g / cm 3 ). Due to the very low content of ß-phase stabilizing elements, the expression of ß-phase is suppressed, resulting in a high heat resistance. However, areas are formed in which there is an accumulation of ß-phase stabilizing elements, resulting in many strength-enhancing internal interfaces. The Si contained in the alloy of the invention results in effective solid solution strengthening and forms fine suicides; This results in an increase in strength over the entire temperature range. At operating temperature of the engine components (ie between 600 ° C and 800 ° C), the ß-phase is therefore suppressed; the proportion of the α 2 phase is preferably> 30% by volume at 600 ° C. and preferably> 5% by volume at 800 ° C.
Zur Herstellung solcher Bauteile und Bauteilkomponenten werden Halbzeuge aus den erfindungsgemäßen α-Titanlegierungen einer Warmumformung im Zustandsbereich der ß-Phase unterzogen. Die Warmumformung erfolgt vorzugsweise bei Temperaturen zwischen 1000° C und 1150° C, insbesondere zwischen 1050° C und 1110° C.For the production of such components and component parts are semi-finished products of the α-titanium alloys according to the invention subjected to hot working in the state region of the β-phase. The hot forming is preferably carried out at temperatures between 1000 ° C and 1150 ° C, in particular between 1050 ° C and 1110 ° C.
In einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung wird die α-Titanlegierung als Werkstoff für Ventile in Verbrennungsmotoren verwendet. Ausgangspunkt zur Herstellung eines solchen Ventils ist ein zylinderförmiges Halbzeug aus einer erfindungsgemäßen α-Titanlegierung, dessen Durchmesser kleiner als der Tellerdurchmesser des zu fertigenden Ventils ist. Das Halbzeug wird im Zustandsbereich der ß-Phase, vorzugsweise bei 1050° C - 1110° C, warmumgeformt. Dabei wird durch einen Strangpressvorgang der Ventilschaft ausgeformt; gleichzeitig wird durch eine Schmiedeoperation der Ventilteller ausgeformt. Auf diese Weise wird sichergestellt, dass sowohl das Material im Ventilschaft als auch das Material im Ventilteller eine Mindestumformung und dadurch die gewünschte Gefügeveränderung erfährt.In an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the α-titanium alloy is used as a material for valves in internal combustion engines. The starting point for the production of such a valve is a cylindrical semi-finished product of an α-titanium alloy according to the invention, the diameter of which is smaller than the diameter of the valve to be manufactured. The semifinished product is hot-worked in the state region of the β-phase, preferably at 1050 ° C.-1110 ° C. In this case, the valve stem is formed by an extrusion process; At the same time, the valve disk is formed by forging operation. In this way it is ensured that both the material in the valve stem and the material in the valve plate undergoes a minimum deformation and thereby the desired microstructural change.
Neben der oben beschriebenen Herstellung eines gesamten Ventils mit Hilfe der Warmumformung kann auch lediglich eine Einzelkomponente (z.B. der Ventilschaft) aus der erfindungsgemäßen α-Titanlegierung warmumgeformt werden und in einem Folgeschritt mit einer anderen Komponente (z.B. dem Ventilteller) aus demselben oder einem anderen Werkstoff verbunden werden (z.B. mittels Reibschweißen). Die erfindungsgemäße Legierung eignet sich nicht nur als Werkstoff für thermisch hochbelastete Motorenbauteile und - komponenten, sondern auch für Niedertemperaturanwendungen, bei denen besonders hohe Anforderungen in Bezug auf Steifigkeit, Festigkeit und Gewichtseinsparung gestellt werden . Die Verwendung der erfindungsgemäßen Legierung als Ventilwerkstoff bietet die Möglichkeit höherer Motordrehzahlen und dadurch höherer Leistungen. Die Herstellung und Bearbeitung von Ventilen aus dieser Legierung erfolgt analog zu den bisher verwendeten, kommerziell erhältlichen Ventilen aus Ti-Legierungen und ist daher wesentlich einfacher und kostengünstiger als die von TiAl- Ventilen. Weiterhin ergibt sich eine höhereIn addition to the production of an entire valve by means of hot forming described above, only a single component (eg the valve stem) of the α-titanium alloy according to the invention can be hot-formed and connected in a subsequent step with another component (eg the valve disc) of the same or a different material be (eg by friction welding). The alloy according to the invention is suitable not only as a material for thermally highly stressed engine components and components, but also for low-temperature applications in which particularly high demands are made in terms of stiffness, strength and weight saving. The use of the alloy according to the invention as a valve material offers the possibility of higher engine speeds and thus higher powers. The production and processing of valves made of this alloy is analogous to the previously used, commercially available valves made of Ti alloys and is therefore much easier and less expensive than that of TiAl valves. Furthermore, there is a higher

Figur 1 zeigt das Ergebnis einer Modellierung der Gleichgewichts-Phasenanteile der Legierung Ti-9A1-O, 5Nb- 0,5Mo-O, 5Si in Abhängigkeit von der Temperatur; diese Legierungszusammensetzung (9 Gew.-% Al, 0,5 Gew.-% Nb, 0,5 Gew.-% Mo, 0,5 Gew.-% Si, Rest Ti) hat sich bezüglich ihrer Warmfestigkeit als besonders vorteilhaft erwiesen. Durch den niedrigen Gehalt an ß-Stabilisatoren bildet diese Legierung die ß-Phase nicht oder in nur minimalen Volumengehalten aus. Insbesondere im Temperaturbereich zwischen 600° C und 800° C, der der Betriebstemperatur der hier betrachtetenFigure 1 shows the result of a modeling of the equilibrium phase proportions of the alloy Ti-9A1-O, 5Nb-0.5Mo-O, 5Si as a function of the temperature; this alloy composition (9% by weight Al, 0.5% by weight Nb, 0.5% by weight Mo, 0.5% by weight Si, remainder Ti) has proved to be particularly advantageous with regard to its heat resistance. Due to the low content of ß-stabilizers this alloy forms the ß-phase is not or in only minimal volume levels. Especially in the temperature range between 600 ° C and 800 ° C, the operating temperature of the considered here
Motorbauteile entspricht, liegt keine ß-Phase im Gleichgewicht vor. Trotzdem besteht eine quasi mehrphasige Gefügesubstruktur, die bei niedrigen und mittleren Temperaturen zu Eigenschaften analog zweiphasiger α/ß- Legierungen führt. Diese mehrphasige Gefügestruktur ist z.B. aus der Schuffansieht der Figur 2 ersichtlich, die die Mikrostruktur der Legierung Ti-9A1-O, 5Nb-O, 5Mo-O, 5Si zeigt und bandartige Bereiche 1 aufweist. Wie aus dem in Figuren 3a bis 3e gezeigten chemischen Mapping - in bezug auf Al (Fig. 3a), Si (Fig. 3b), Ti (Fig. 3c), Nb (Fig. 3d) und Mo (Fig. 3e) - dieser bandartigen Bereiche 1 hervorgeht, handelt es sich in diesen Bereichen 1 um Anreicherungen von ß- Stabilisatoren . Beugungsbilder zeigen jedoch, dass in den bandartigen Bereichen 1 keine ß-Phase vorliegt.Motor components corresponds, there is no beta phase in equilibrium. Nevertheless, there is a quasi-multi-phase microstructure substructure, which leads at low and medium temperatures to properties analogous to two-phase α / ß-alloys. This multiphase microstructure is e.g. 2, which shows the microstructure of the alloy Ti-9A1-O, 5Nb-O, 5Mo-O, 5Si and has band-like regions 1. As is apparent from the chemical mapping shown in FIGS. 3a to 3e with respect to Al (FIG. 3a), Si (FIG. 3b), Ti (FIG. 3c), Nb (FIG. 3d) and Mo (FIG. 3e). This band-like regions 1 shows that these regions 1 are enrichments of β-stabilizers. However, diffraction patterns show that there is no beta phase in the band-like regions 1.
In der erfindungsgemäßen Legierung unterbindet bei hohen Temperaturen das Fehlen der ß-Phase den ansonsten bei α/ß- Legierungen beobachteten Festigkeitseinbruch. Gleichzeitig trägt der hohe Anteil an 012-Phase zu einer Steigerung der Hochtemperaturfestigkeit bei. Ein weiterer festigkeits- steigernder Beitrag wird durch die Zugabe der 0,5 Gew.-% Si und die dadurch bedingte Mischkristallstruktur und die Ausscheidung feiner Ti5Si3-Teilchen erzielt. Insgesamt ist die Legierung Ti-9A1-O, 5Nb-O, 5Mo-O, 5Si in Bezug auf Hochtemperaturfestigkeit und Ermüdungseigenschaften den konventionellen Ti-Legierungen deutlich überlegen und kommt denen von TiAl nahe. In the alloy according to the invention, at high temperatures, the absence of the β-phase prevents the strength drop otherwise observed in α / β alloys. At the same time, the high proportion of 01 2 phase contributes to an increase in high-temperature strength. Another strength-increasing contribution is achieved by the addition of 0.5 wt .-% Si and the consequent mixed crystal structure and the excretion of fine Ti 5 Si 3 particles. Overall, the alloy Ti-9A1-O, 5Nb-O, 5Mo-O, 5Si is superior to the conventional Ti alloys in terms of high-temperature strength and fatigue properties and is close to those of TiAl.
