The invention discloses a method for preparing a large
powder metallurgy TZM blank with uniform carbon and
oxygen distribution, which comprises the following steps of: 1, weighing raw materials; 2, mixing
powder, namely mixing the weighed four raw materials twice under vacuum or the protection of
inert gas, mixing
titanium hydride powder,
zirconium hydride powder and
carbon black powder to prepare mixed powder, adding a volatile
organic solvent into the mixed powder, uniformly stirring to prepare suspension, adding the weighed
molybdenum powder into the suspension for uniform mixing, and adding residual
molybdenum powder for uniform mixing; 3, performing cold isostatic pressing; and 4,
sintering by keeping the temperature at stages, namely adopting a
vacuum sintering furnace and
sintering at three stages, wherein the process comprises the following steps of: raising the temperature at the first stage, raising the temperature at the second stage, and
sintering at high temperature. The preparation method has the advantages of reasonable design, simple and convenient operation, and good using effect. The carbon content in the center and on the surface of the prepared larger-size TZM blank can be controlled to be approximately consistent, and the
oxygen content in the center and on the surface of the TZM blank also can be reduced to a lower level.
