The invention relates to an in-situ TaC particle and iron-based amorphous
alloy synergistically strengthened medium-high
manganese steel-based
composite material and a preparation method thereof. Thepreparation method mainly comprises the following steps that
tantalum (Ta)
powder is mixed with
carbon black or
graphite (C)
powder, after high-energy ball milling is carried out, Ta-C intermediate phase
alloy powders with high reaction activity are obtained;
coating nickel layers on the surfaces of intermediate phase
alloy particles is carried out by utilizing high-energy ball milling; then ironpowders and
manganese powders are added, high-energy ball milling is carried out, enabling part of the iron powders and
manganese powders to reach nanoscale is carried out, high-pressure pressing is utilized to obtain a compact block blank; and the blank is put into a vacuum double-chamber heat treatment furnace to perform
vacuum sintering, rapid
air cooling is carried out after
sintering is completed, and the finally needed
composite material is obtained. According to the in-situ TaC particle and iron-based amorphous alloy synergistically strengthened medium-high manganese steel-based
composite material and the preparation method thereof, the composite material shows ultrahigh
elastic modulus, strength and
hardness and good
plasticity and
toughness, the process is simple, scale is easy, and the composite material is suitable for developing products with long service life, such as gears, bearings, connecting rods, lining plates, rollers, cutters, molds and the like, under the working conditions of high temperature,
high stress, hard
abrasive wear and the like.
