Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of additive manufacturing, and discloses a 4D printing method of in-situ regulation of the functional characteristics of a nickel-titanium alloy and application. A nickel-titanium alloy rod material is powdered by atomization to obtain nickel-titanium alloy powder with a particle size of 15-53 [mu]m, then the nickel-titanium alloy powder is placed in adischarge plasma-assisted ball mill for discharge treatment to promote the activity activation of the powder, and then nano-scale nickel powder with the particle size being 100-800nm is added to obtain mixed powder; the discharge treatment is continued to realize metallurgical bonding between the nickel-titanium alloy powder and the nano-nickel powder to obtain modified powder; and finally the modified powder is prepared and formed by an additive manufacturing technology to obtain the functionalized nickel-titanium alloy. The metallurgical bonding is realized by adding the nano-scale nickel powder and the large-sized spherical nickel-titanium alloy powder during the discharge treatment process, so that a bulk alloy and parts thereof with uniform composition, microstructure and performanceare prepared.
