(Embodiment)
[composition]
First, a tungsten alloy wire according to the present embodiment will be explained using FIG. 1. FIG. 1 is a schematic perspective view of a tungsten alloy wire 1 according to the present embodiment.
 図1に示されるように、タングステン合金線1は、巻枠2に巻回されて保管される。巻枠2は、ボビン、リール、スプール又はドラムなどと称される場合がある。タングステン合金線1は、例えば、100m程度のメートル(m)オーダーの全長からキロメートル(km)オーダーの全長を有するが、特に限定されない。 As shown in FIG. 1, the tungsten alloy wire 1 is wound around a winding frame 2 and stored. The winding frame 2 is sometimes referred to as a bobbin, reel, spool, or drum. The tungsten alloy wire 1 has, for example, a total length on the order of meters (m) of about 100 m to a total length on the order of kilometers (km), but is not particularly limited.
 図1に示されるタングステン合金線1は、金属製品の製造に利用される。図2A~図2Cはそれぞれ、本実施の形態に係るタングステン合金線1を備える金属製品の一例を示す模式的な斜視図である。 The tungsten alloy wire 1 shown in FIG. 1 is used for manufacturing metal products. 2A to 2C are each a schematic perspective view showing an example of a metal product including the tungsten alloy wire 1 according to the present embodiment.
 図2Aに示される棒11は、金属製品の一例であり、タングステン合金線1を備える。具体的には、棒11は、所定の長さのタングステン合金線1である。棒11の長さは、特に限定されず、用途に応じて適切な長さとすることができる。棒11は、タングステン合金線1を備える様々な金属製品の一部又は中間加工部材として利用されるが、用途は特に限定されない。なお、棒は、ピンと称される場合もある。 The rod 11 shown in FIG. 2A is an example of a metal product, and includes a tungsten alloy wire 1. Specifically, the rod 11 is a tungsten alloy wire 1 of a predetermined length. The length of the rod 11 is not particularly limited, and can be set to an appropriate length depending on the purpose. The rod 11 is used as a part of various metal products including the tungsten alloy wire 1 or as an intermediate processed member, but its use is not particularly limited. Note that the rod may also be referred to as a pin.
 図2Bに示される電極12は、金属製品の一例であり、タングステン合金線1を備える。具体的には、電極12は、所定の長さのタングステン合金線1の先端部分を細く加工したものである。電極12の先端形状は、例えば円錐形状であるが、これに限定されない。電極12の先端形状は、先端部が丸い円錐形状若しくは円錐台形状、又は、角錐若しくは角錐台形状などであってもよい。電極12は、例えば放電加工に利用されるが、用途は特に限定されない。 The electrode 12 shown in FIG. 2B is an example of a metal product, and includes a tungsten alloy wire 1. Specifically, the electrode 12 is made by processing the tip of the tungsten alloy wire 1 of a predetermined length into a thinner one. The tip shape of the electrode 12 is, for example, a conical shape, but is not limited to this. The shape of the tip of the electrode 12 may be a rounded cone or truncated cone, or a pyramid or truncated pyramid. The electrode 12 is used, for example, in electric discharge machining, but its use is not particularly limited.
 図2Cに示される撚り線13は、金属製品の一例であり、複数のタングステン合金線1を備える。具体的には、撚り線13は、所定の長さの複数のタングステン合金線1に対して合撚加工を行うことで製造される合撚糸である。なお、撚り線13は、タングステン合金線1を芯糸又は鞘糸として備えるカバーリング糸であってもよい。芯糸及び鞘糸の一方は、タングステン合金線1以外の金属線であってもよく、化学繊維、天然繊維、再生繊維などであってもよい。撚り線13は、さらに束ねられてロープ又は紐などに利用されてもよく、用途は特に限定されない。 The stranded wire 13 shown in FIG. 2C is an example of a metal product, and includes a plurality of tungsten alloy wires 1. Specifically, the stranded wire 13 is a twisted yarn manufactured by performing a twisting process on a plurality of tungsten alloy wires 1 having a predetermined length. Note that the stranded wire 13 may be a covering thread that includes the tungsten alloy wire 1 as a core thread or a sheath thread. One of the core thread and the sheath thread may be a metal wire other than the tungsten alloy wire 1, or may be a chemical fiber, a natural fiber, a recycled fiber, or the like. The stranded wire 13 may be further bundled and used as a rope or string, and the use thereof is not particularly limited.
 なお、タングステン合金線1を利用した金属製品の例は、図2A~図2Cに示されるものには限定されない。例えば、金属製品は、ソーワイヤ、メッシュ、カテーテル、繊維製品などであってもよい。金属製品は、タングステン合金線1と、金属以外の材料(例えば樹脂)を用いて形成された部材と、を備えてもよい。 Note that examples of metal products using the tungsten alloy wire 1 are not limited to those shown in FIGS. 2A to 2C. For example, the metal product may be a saw wire, a mesh, a catheter, a textile product, etc. The metal product may include the tungsten alloy wire 1 and a member formed using a material other than metal (for example, resin).
 本実施の形態に係るタングステン合金線1は、1100℃以上の熱影響を少なくとも1回受ける環境下で使用される。具体的には、タングステン合金線1は、金属製品の製造のための加工時、又は、金属製品としての使用時に熱影響を少なくとも1回受ける。熱影響の具体例としては、例えば、タングステン合金線1を鉄などの他の金属部材に溶接する場合、又は、放電電極として使用された場合などであるが、特に限定されない。 The tungsten alloy wire 1 according to the present embodiment is used in an environment where it is subjected to heat effects of 1100° C. or more at least once. Specifically, the tungsten alloy wire 1 is affected by heat at least once during processing for manufacturing a metal product or when used as a metal product. Specific examples of thermal effects include, for example, when the tungsten alloy wire 1 is welded to another metal member such as iron, or when it is used as a discharge electrode, but is not particularly limited.
 タングステン合金線1は、1100℃以上の熱影響を受けたとしても、折り曲げに強い。すなわち、タングステン合金線1は、耐屈曲性に優れている。タングステン合金線1を、所定の曲率で曲げたとしても破断又は表面剥離などが生じない。なお、1100℃は、タングステンが一次再結晶する温度の一例である。 The tungsten alloy wire 1 is resistant to bending even if it is affected by heat of 1100° C. or higher. That is, the tungsten alloy wire 1 has excellent bending resistance. Even if the tungsten alloy wire 1 is bent at a predetermined curvature, no breakage or surface peeling occurs. Note that 1100° C. is an example of the temperature at which tungsten undergoes primary recrystallization.
 一般的に、タングステンは、高温に耐えられる特性を有する。しかしながら、タングステンは、結晶粒界が弱い、すなわち、結晶粒界を起点として亀裂が入りやすいという問題がある。具体的には、結晶粒のサイズが変化する程度(具体的には、タングステンが一次再結晶する温度(1100℃)以上)の熱影響を受けた場合には、タングステンの結晶粒が大きくなって結晶粒界が少なくなるだけでなく、結晶粒界に酸素が入り込む。結晶粒界が少なくなることで、結晶粒界に入り込む酸素の量も相対的に多くなるので、タングステンの強度が弱くなる。この結果、熱影響後にタングステンに対する折り又は曲げなどの応力が加わった場合、結晶粒界を起点として亀裂が入りやすくなって耐屈曲性が悪化する。 Generally, tungsten has the property of being able to withstand high temperatures. However, tungsten has a problem in that its grain boundaries are weak, that is, cracks tend to form starting from the grain boundaries. Specifically, if the tungsten crystal grains are affected by heat to a degree that changes the size of the crystal grains (specifically, the temperature at which tungsten recrystallizes (1100°C) or higher), the tungsten crystal grains become larger. Not only are the number of grain boundaries reduced, but oxygen also enters the grain boundaries. As the number of grain boundaries decreases, the amount of oxygen that enters the grain boundaries also increases, which weakens the strength of tungsten. As a result, when stress such as bending or bending is applied to tungsten after being affected by heat, cracks tend to form starting from the grain boundaries, resulting in poor bending resistance.
 これに対して、本実施の形態に係るタングステン合金線1は、タングステンとレニウム(Re)とを含み、タングステンとレニウムとが固溶体を形成して合金化されている。タングステン合金線1におけるレニウムの含有量は、5wt%以上26wt%以下である。あるいは、タングステン合金線1におけるレニウムの含有量は、6wt%以上であってもよく、7wt%以上であってもよく、8wt%以上であってもよく、9wt%以上であってもよく、10wt%以上であってもよく、12wt%以上であってもよく、15wt%以上であってもよく、20wt%以上であってもよい。また、タングステン合金線1におけるレニウムの含有量は、25wt%以下であってもよく、20wt%以下であってもよく、15wt%以下であってもよく、12wt%以下であってもよく、10wt%以下であってもよく、9wt%以下であってもよく、8wt%以下であってもよく、7wt%以下であってもよく、6wt%以下であってもよい。 On the other hand, the tungsten alloy wire 1 according to the present embodiment contains tungsten and rhenium (Re), and the tungsten and rhenium are alloyed to form a solid solution. The content of rhenium in the tungsten alloy wire 1 is 5 wt% or more and 26 wt% or less. Alternatively, the rhenium content in the tungsten alloy wire 1 may be 6 wt% or more, 7 wt% or more, 8 wt% or more, 9 wt% or more, or 10 wt% or more. % or more, 12 wt% or more, 15 wt% or more, or 20 wt% or more. Further, the content of rhenium in the tungsten alloy wire 1 may be 25 wt% or less, 20 wt% or less, 15 wt% or less, 12 wt% or less, or 10 wt% or less. % or less, 9 wt% or less, 8 wt% or less, 7 wt% or less, or 6 wt% or less.
 タングステン合金線1では、レニウムの含有量が5wt%以上であることによって、熱影響を受けた場合に入り込む酸素を、結晶粒内に存在するレニウムが取り込むことができる。これにより、結晶粒界に存在する酸素の量を少なくすることができるので、亀裂が入りにくくなって耐屈曲性の悪化を抑制することができる。 In the tungsten alloy wire 1, since the rhenium content is 5 wt% or more, the rhenium present in the crystal grains can take in oxygen that enters when it is affected by heat. This makes it possible to reduce the amount of oxygen present in the grain boundaries, making it difficult for cracks to form and suppressing deterioration in bending resistance.
 また、タングステン合金線1では、レニウムの含有量が26wt%以下であることによって、レニウムとタングステンとの固溶体を形成することができる。レニウムの含有量が26wt%を超えると固溶体が形成できなくなり、タングステン合金線1の強度が低下して脆くなるおそれがある。 Further, in the tungsten alloy wire 1, since the rhenium content is 26 wt% or less, a solid solution of rhenium and tungsten can be formed. If the rhenium content exceeds 26 wt%, a solid solution cannot be formed, and the strength of the tungsten alloy wire 1 may decrease and become brittle.
 [耐屈曲性]
 続いて、本実施の形態に係るタングステン合金線1の耐屈曲性について、図3及び図4を用いて説明する。
[Bending resistance]
Next, the bending resistance of the tungsten alloy wire 1 according to the present embodiment will be explained using FIGS. 3 and 4.
 図3は、本実施の形態に係るタングステン合金線の熱影響を受けた後の耐屈曲性を示す図である。図3に示す実施例1~8は、線径及び成分の少なくとも一方が異なるタングステン合金線である。各実施例に係るタングステン合金線1の線径は、0.02mm以上1.00mm以下の範囲内である。また、各実施例に係るタングステン合金線1におけるレニウムの含有量は、5wt%以上26wt%以下の範囲内である。また、各実施例に係るタングステン合金線1におけるタングステンの含有量は、74wt%以上95wt%以下である。 FIG. 3 is a diagram showing the bending resistance of the tungsten alloy wire according to the present embodiment after being affected by heat.

 本願発明者らは、実施例1~8に係るタングステン合金線、並びに、比較例1~7に係るタングステン合金線、カリウムドープタングステン線及び純タングステン線に対して、所定の温度で熱処理を行った。各実施例及び各比較例について5本ずつサンプルを作成し、各サンプルに対して異なる温度(1100℃、1300℃、1500℃、1700℃、2000℃)で熱処理を行った。熱処理時間は、特に影響を与えるものがないが、例えば、1分程度である。 The inventors of the present application heat-treated the tungsten alloy wires according to Examples 1 to 8, and the tungsten alloy wires, potassium-doped tungsten wires, and pure tungsten wires according to Comparative Examples 1 to 7 at a predetermined temperature. . Five samples were prepared for each example and each comparative example, and each sample was heat treated at different temperatures (1100°C, 1300°C, 1500°C, 1700°C, 2000°C). The heat treatment time has no particular influence, but is, for example, about 1 minute.
 熱処理後、各実施例及び各比較例の各サンプルに対して、コイリング試験を行った。図4は、本実施の形態に係るタングステン合金線1のコイリング試験の概要を示す図である。 After the heat treatment, a coiling test was conducted on each sample of each Example and each Comparative Example. FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an outline of a coiling test of the tungsten alloy wire 1 according to the present embodiment.
 コイリング試験では、断面形状が円形で均一な径の棒状の芯材20に対して、タングステン合金線1を巻き付け、タングステン合金線1の破断又は表面剥離が生じるか否かを確認した。コイリング試験に用いる芯材20の断面の径Rは、対象となるタングステン合金線1の線径φと同じにした。すなわち、タングステン合金線1の線径が小さい程、小さい曲率半径(大きい曲率)で屈曲(コイリング)が行われるようにしている。例えば、実施例1に係る線径1.00mmのタングステン合金線1の場合、線径1.00mmの円柱状の芯材20を利用した。実施例7に係る線径0.04mmのタングステン合金線1の場合、線径0.04mmの円柱状の芯材20を利用した。比較例1~7に係るタングステン合金線、カリウムドープタングステン線及び純タングステン線についても同様である。 In the coiling test, the tungsten alloy wire 1 was wound around a rod-shaped core material 20 with a circular cross-sectional shape and a uniform diameter, and it was confirmed whether the tungsten alloy wire 1 would break or the surface would peel off. The diameter R of the cross section of the core material 20 used in the coiling test was made the same as the wire diameter φ of the tungsten alloy wire 1 to be tested. That is, the smaller the wire diameter of the tungsten alloy wire 1 is, the smaller the radius of curvature (larger curvature) is bent (coiling). For example, in the case of the tungsten alloy wire 1 with a wire diameter of 1.00 mm according to Example 1, a cylindrical core material 20 with a wire diameter of 1.00 mm was used. In the case of the tungsten alloy wire 1 with a wire diameter of 0.04 mm according to Example 7, a cylindrical core material 20 with a wire diameter of 0.04 mm was used. The same applies to the tungsten alloy wire, potassium-doped tungsten wire, and pure tungsten wire according to Comparative Examples 1 to 7.
 図3の実施例1~8に係るタングステン合金線1では、いずれの温度においても破断又は表面剥離が生じなかった(図中“OK”で表している)。すなわち、線径によらず、レニウムの含有量が5wt%以上26wt%以下の範囲では、1100℃以上の熱影響を受けたとしても、折り曲げに対して強い(耐屈曲性に優れた)タングステン合金線1が実現できている。 In the tungsten alloy wires 1 according to Examples 1 to 8 in FIG. 3, no breakage or surface peeling occurred at any temperature (represented by "OK" in the figure). In other words, regardless of the wire diameter, if the rhenium content is in the range of 5 wt% or more and 26 wt% or less, the tungsten alloy is strong against bending (has excellent bending resistance) even when subjected to heat effects of 1100°C or more. Line 1 has been realized.
 これに対して、比較例1~3に示されるように、レニウムの含有量が1wt%又は3wt%である場合、比較例3の1100℃の熱影響を受けた場合を除いて、いずれも破断又は表面剥離が生じた(図中“NG”で表している)。比較例3では、線径が0.10mmであって細いので、低い温度(1100℃)では結晶粒界に取り込まれる酸素が少なく破断にまでは至らなかったと想定される。 On the other hand, as shown in Comparative Examples 1 to 3, when the rhenium content is 1wt% or 3wt%, all cases break except for the case where the rhenium content was affected by heat at 1100°C in Comparative Example 3. Or surface peeling occurred (represented by "NG" in the figure). In Comparative Example 3, the wire diameter was 0.10 mm, which was small, so it is assumed that at a low temperature (1100° C.), less oxygen was taken into the grain boundaries and the wire did not break.
 また、比較例4~6に示されるように、カリウムドープタングステン線の場合、線径が小さく、かつ、熱処理の温度が低い場合(比較例5の1100℃、並びに、比較例6の1100℃及び1300℃)を除いて、いずれも破断又は表面剥離が生じた。なお、カリウムは、レニウムとは異なり、結晶粒界に存在し、酸素を取り込む効果がない。 In addition, as shown in Comparative Examples 4 to 6, in the case of potassium-doped tungsten wire, when the wire diameter is small and the heat treatment temperature is low (1100 ° C in Comparative Example 5, 1100 ° C and Breakage or surface peeling occurred in all cases except at 1300°C. Note that, unlike rhenium, potassium exists at grain boundaries and has no effect of taking in oxygen.
 比較例7に示されるように、純タングステン線の場合、熱影響による酸素が結晶粒界に入り込むので、破断又は表面剥離が生じた。 As shown in Comparative Example 7, in the case of pure tungsten wire, oxygen entered the grain boundaries due to the influence of heat, resulting in breakage or surface peeling.
 [効果など]
 以上のように、本実施の形態に係るタングステン合金線1は、1100℃以上の熱影響を少なくとも1回受ける環境下で使用されるタングステン合金線であって、レニウムを5wt%以上26wt%以下の含有量で含む。
[Effects etc.]
As described above, the tungsten alloy wire 1 according to the present embodiment is a tungsten alloy wire used in an environment where it is subjected to heat effects of 1100° C. or higher at least once, and contains rhenium in a proportion of 5 wt% or more and 26 wt% or less. Included in content.
 これにより、タングステン合金線1は、レニウムを5wt%以上含有することによって、熱影響を受けた場合に結晶粒界に入る酸素をレニウムが取り込むことができ、結晶粒界を起点とする亀裂の発生を抑制することができる。よって、熱影響を受けたとしても、断線などが発生しにくく、耐屈曲性に優れたタングステン合金線1を実現することができる。また、レニウムの含有量が26wt%以下であることで、レニウムとタングステンとの合金(固溶体)を形成することができるので、タングステン合金線1の強度を高めることができる。 As a result, since the tungsten alloy wire 1 contains 5 wt% or more of rhenium, rhenium can take in oxygen that enters the grain boundaries when affected by heat, and cracks occur starting from the grain boundaries. can be suppressed. Therefore, it is possible to realize a tungsten alloy wire 1 that is less likely to be disconnected even if it is affected by heat and has excellent bending resistance. Further, since the rhenium content is 26 wt% or less, an alloy (solid solution) of rhenium and tungsten can be formed, so that the strength of the tungsten alloy wire 1 can be increased.
 また、本実施の形態に係る金属製品は、タングステン合金線1を備える。例えば、金属製品は、棒11、電極12又は撚り線13である。 Further, the metal product according to this embodiment includes a tungsten alloy wire 1. For example, the metal products are rods 11, electrodes 12 or strands 13.
 これにより、金属製品の製造時又は使用時に熱影響を受けたとしても、タングステン合金線1は折り曲げに強い。このため、金属製品の品質の低下を抑制することができる。 As a result, the tungsten alloy wire 1 is resistant to bending even if it is affected by heat during manufacturing or use of the metal product. Therefore, deterioration in the quality of metal products can be suppressed.
 [製造方法]
 本実施の形態に係るタングステン合金線1は、例えば、次のような方法で製造することができる。
[Production method]
The tungsten alloy wire 1 according to this embodiment can be manufactured, for example, by the following method.
 まず、タングステン粉末とレニウム粉末とを混合し、プレス成型して焼結してインゴット化する。タングステン粉末とレニウム粉末との混合比を調整することで、レニウムの含有量を5wt%以上26wt%以下に調整することができる。 First, tungsten powder and rhenium powder are mixed, press-molded, and sintered to form an ingot. By adjusting the mixing ratio of tungsten powder and rhenium powder, the content of rhenium can be adjusted to 5 wt% or more and 26 wt% or less.
 次に、インゴット化したタングステン塊に対して、周囲から鍛造圧縮して伸展するスエージング加工を施すことによりワイヤ状にする。その後、伸線ダイスを用いた線引き(伸線)を行う。線引きは、孔径が互いに異なる複数の伸線ダイスを、孔径が漸次小さくなる順番で用いることで行われる。 Next, the ingot-shaped tungsten lump is made into a wire shape by performing a swaging process in which the ingot is forged and compressed from the periphery and then expanded. Thereafter, wire drawing is performed using a wire drawing die. Wire drawing is performed by using a plurality of wire drawing dies having different hole diameters in order of decreasing hole diameter.
 伸線ダイスの孔径を適宜調整することによって、図3に示したような0.02mmから1.00mmの範囲のタングステン合金線1を製造することができる。なお、線引き時には、所定の温度での加熱が行われてもよい。また、線引き後のタングステン合金線1に対して、電解研磨などの表面処理が行われてもよい。 By appropriately adjusting the hole diameter of the wire drawing die, it is possible to manufacture a tungsten alloy wire 1 having a diameter ranging from 0.02 mm to 1.00 mm as shown in FIG. Note that during wire drawing, heating may be performed at a predetermined temperature. Further, the tungsten alloy wire 1 after drawing may be subjected to surface treatment such as electrolytic polishing.

Although the tungsten alloy wire and metal product according to the present invention have been described above based on the above-described embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments.
 例えば、タングステン合金線は、レニウムの代わりに、ルテニウム(Ru)又はコバルト(Co)を含んでもよい。例えば、タングステン合金線は、タングステンの含有量が99.8wt%であり、ルテニウムの含有量が0.2wt%であり、微量の不純物を含んでもよい。当該タングステン合金線に対して熱処理を行った後、コイリング試験を行った結果、熱処理の温度が1100℃、1300℃、1500℃、1700℃、2000℃のいずれの場合も、耐屈曲性の悪化が見られなかった。 For example, the tungsten alloy wire may contain ruthenium (Ru) or cobalt (Co) instead of rhenium. For example, the tungsten alloy wire has a tungsten content of 99.8 wt%, a ruthenium content of 0.2 wt%, and may contain trace amounts of impurities. After heat-treating the tungsten alloy wire, a coiling test was conducted, and it was found that the bending resistance deteriorated regardless of the heat treatment temperature of 1100°C, 1300°C, 1500°C, 1700°C, or 2000°C. I couldn't see it.
