Problems solved by technology

[0002] Laser additive manufacturing of titanium alloys is an emerging technology developed in recent years. This technology melts synchronously transported titanium alloy powder through high-power lasers, and accumulates formed parts point by point, which overcomes the high melting point of titanium alloy itself. , poor thermal conductivity, high molten state activity, and large deformation resistance, the disadvantages of difficult processing and complex parts processing technology have been more and more researched and applied in the field of aerospace and defense manufacturing. However, due to Laser additive manufacturing has the characteristics of instant heating and cooling, and large temperature gradient, which is difficult to control, resulting in the macrostructure of its titanium alloy forming parts being coarse β columnar crystals penetrating through multiple cladding layers along the forming direction, resulting in anisotropy of titanium alloy components. (can reach 15%-70%) Obviously, the fracture toughness and low cycle fatigue strength are low, which seriously restricts its application in the defense industry and aerospace fields

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for utilizing boron alloying metamorphism to reduce anisotropy of TC4 additive manufacturing. The method includes the following steps of S1, drying Ti-6Al-4V-0.05B alloy powder under a vacuum environment at 120 DEG C for 8 hours; S2, using a laser additive manufacturing device for conducting laser melting, covering and forming on the alloy powder dried in step S1 under a protective atmosphere of inert gas to obtain a formed sample component; S3, conducting thermal dissolution and aging treatment on the formed component under argon protection of the inert gas. By using a new material obtained by alloying boron and TC4 in the method for laser melting, covering and sedimentation, boron effectively inhibits generation of thick preliminary cylindrical crystals in a TC4 titanium alloy during forming and facilitates isometry and refining of TC4 titanium alloy grains, the structure is more uniform, and the anisotropy of conventional mechanical performance is controlled within 10%. A new approach is provided for laser additive manufacturing of the TC4 titanium alloy.
