Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of metallurgical smelting, in particular to an electron beam smelting method for preparing a tungsten electrode material. The electron beam smelting method for preparing the tungsten electrode material comprises the following steps of: firstly, processing tungsten powder in a hot-pressing moulding way to obtain a tungsten block; secondly, performing electron beam smelting on the tungsten block in vacuum at high temperature, and solidifying and cooling to obtain a tungsten ingot; and finally, thermally processing the tungsten ingot in vacuum to obtain the tungsten electrode material. The electron beam smelting method for preparing the tungsten electrode material has the advantages as follows: energy with very high density is provided by an electron beam to melt and smelt a tungsten material; the tungsten electrode material obtained after electron beam vacuum smelting is relatively high in compactness; analysis on change of microhardness judges that the hardness of the tungsten electrode material after the electron beam smelting is relatively large; and through heat treatment, the comprehensive performance of the tungsten material is improved, the microhardness is reduced, the plasticity is improved, the cutting processability and the pressing processability are improved, crystal grains are refined, the organization is adjusted, the comprehensive mechanical properties are improved, and using requirements of the tungsten electrode material are met.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of metallurgical smelting, in particular to a method for preparing tungsten electrode materials by smelting. Background technique [0002] Tungsten has a high melting point (3683°C±20°C), strong electron emission capability, high elastic modulus, and low vapor pressure, so it has been used as a thermal electron emission material for a long time. As an indispensable functional material in machinery, shipbuilding, aerospace, construction, nuclear power, metallurgy and other industries, tungsten electrode materials are mainly used in processes such as inert gas shielded welding, plasma cutting, spraying and smelting. At the same time, another important application of tungsten electrode material is to act as a hot cathode electron emission source in the welding process. [0003] So far, there is still little research on tungsten-based electrode materials in China. Although some manufacturers have produced them,...
