Problems solved by technology

However, nickel-based superalloys have complex components and high melting points, and the physical and chemical changes in the gas atomization process are very complex, and powder hollow defects are prone to occur, resulting in gas inclusions.
At the same time, the particle size of the powder required for powder bed selective laser forming is usually less than 45 μm, and the specific surface area is large. It is very easy to absorb oxygen and increase the oxygen content, resulting in a decrease in the performance of the formed sample.
At present, satellite powder and non-metallic inclusions will appear in the powder prepared by AA method, and the yield of fine powder (particle size less than 50 μm) is low, generally not more than 40%, which increases the production cost of powder bed selective laser forming; laser melting Powders with a particle size of 45 μm to 106 μm required for overmolding often have more hollow defects, and these defects are likely to become crack sources during the laser forming process, reducing the quality and performance of the formed sample
[0004] The invention provides a preparation method of nickel-based superalloy powder for laser forming, and prepares nickel-based superalloy powder meeting the technical requirements of laser forming, which effectively improves the yield of fine powder (particle size less than 50 μm) and solves the problem of Problems such as powder hollow defects and satellite powder

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a preparation method of nickel-based superalloy powder for laser forming, belonging to the field of superalloy and powder metallurgy. Background technique [0002] Nickel-based superalloys have excellent high-temperature corrosion resistance, fatigue resistance, wear resistance and high strength, and are widely used in aero-engine turbine disks, rocket engines, aerospace vehicles and other fields. However, nickel-based superalloys are difficult to cut and have a low degree of freedom in forming. Laser forming provides a new technical approach to solve the problems of forming and application of nickel-based superalloys. Laser forming is an important additive manufacturing technology (additive manufacturing, AM) developed in the mid-1990s, including powder bed laser forming technology (selective laser melting) and powder laser cladding technology. Laser forming can directly obtain solid parts with good metallurgical bonding and ...
