Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of laser additive manufacturing, and more specifically relates to a method for inhibiting the precipitation of Laves phase during the process of laser additive manufacturing of nickel-based alloys. Background technique [0002] Laser additive manufacturing technology has the characteristics of rapid cooling and rapid solidification, but it is prone to severe segregation of elements such as Nb at the solid-liquid interface, thereby forming a long-chain Laves phase. In addition, during the laser additive manufacturing process, the precipitation of strengthening phases such as γ′-(Ni3Nb) and γ″-Ni3(Al,Ti) is often suppressed, which further affects its mechanical properties. Generally, in order to eliminate Laves phase and to maximize the microstructure and mechanical properties of the deposited nickel-based superalloy, generally requires homogenization or solution treatment. However, for remanufactured parts, if the over...
