Problems solved by technology

However, the tensile elongation of this material is only 2%-3%, which is far lower than that of commonly used high-temperature structural materials such as stainless steel and heat-resistant steel, and its machinability is poor, which hinders its large-scale industrial production as a high-temperature structural material. application
[0003] Bridgman method (Bridgman) is a common crystal growth method. Bridgman method has the characteristics of mature technology and stable crystallization process, but the solidification rate of Bridgman technology is 2-15cm / h, which is relatively low, which makes solidification The tissue cannot be further refined; the temperature gradient of the Bridgman technique is also low, about 45K / cm, and the low temperature gradient also severely restricts tissue control and performance improvement

(Using a ring electron gun to melt the test bar and form a narrow melting zone on it. The melting zone is maintained between the original material bar and the solidified material bar by surface tension. When the test bar moves slowly in the vertical direction, it solidifies directionally behind the melting zone. , So as to grow along the vertical direction of the entire rod.)

Abstract

The invention discloses an electron beam floating zone melting directional solidification preparation method for a Fe-Al-Ta composite material. The method includes: adding trace of high-ductility refractory metal Ta into a Fe-Al intermetallic compound, preparing eutectic alloy or non-eutectic alloy, and performing eutectic reaction to obtain a Fe(Al, Ta) / Fe2Ta(Al) eutectic composite material or Fe-Al-Ta non-eutectic composite material, wherein the Laves phase Fe2Ta(Al) has a hexagonal C14 structure (with a melting point higher than 700 DEG C) and is high in strength when the temperature is higher than 1000 DEG C, and fragility improvement and strength improvement of the material are realized due to intergrowth compounding of the matrix phase Fe(Al, Ta) and the Laves phase Fe2Ta(Al) in melt. A theoretical basis is provided for Laves phase alloy composition design and novel high-temperature structural material research and development, and a significant academic value in development of application of the electron beam floating zone melting directional solidification technique is achieved.

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of metallurgy, and relates to the improvement of the brittleness of Fe-Al intermetallic compounds, and in particular to a method for preparing Fe-Al-Ta composite material by smelting and directional solidification in the electron beam suspension zone. Background technique [0002] In addition to metal bonds, intermetallic compounds also have some covalent bonds. They have both the good plasticity of metals and the good high-temperature strength of ceramics. They are a class of high-temperature structural materials with great potential. Fe-Al intermetallic compound (Fe 3 Al, FeAl, FeAl 2 , Fe 2 Al 5 FeAl 3 ) Is one of the most typical representatives. The raw materials use two basic natural elements, Fe and Al, which are low in price. In addition, the Fe-Al intermetallic compound has a long-range ordered crystal structure, and the bonding between atoms has both metal bonds and Covalent bond and ionic bond, the uni...
