热处理对第二代镍基单晶合金DD11显微组织及持久性能的影响

采用光学显微镜和扫描电镜对铸态、固溶态和时效态的第二代镍基单晶合金DD11的显微组织进行定量表征,并测试了不同一级时效处理后的合金1 100℃/140MPa和980℃/250MPa条件下的持久性能。结果表明:合金经过1 320℃/6h固溶处理后,(γ+γ′)共晶相全部溶解,凝固偏析显著降低,合金组织均匀。一级时效温度低于1 160℃时,γ′相为方形,一级时效温度高于1 180℃时,γ′相为球形,γ通道显著变宽,并在通道内析出细小的γ′相。随一级时效温度提高,合金的持久寿命先增大后降低。持久性能与γ′相尺寸、体积分数及形态密切相关。     

固溶热处理对一种第三代镍基单晶高温合金组织及高温持久性能的影响

研究了固溶热处理对一种Re含量为6.5%(质量分数)的第三代单晶高温合金组织及持久性能的影响,实验结果表明:合金铸态下存在明显的凝固偏析,枝晶间区域存在大量的(γ+γ′)共晶组织。固溶过程中,共晶组织在1 335℃以上开始快速溶解,但难熔元素,尤其是Re元素的偏析需要在1 360℃以上才能有明显改善;经过1 365℃固溶后疏松含量增加至0.21%(体积分数),接近铸态下疏松含量的5.2倍。铸态及经1 360℃和1 365℃固溶热处理后合金的持久性能测试结果显示:固溶热处理显著改善了合金的持久性能,且固溶温度越高,持久性能越高。在高温持久加载过程中,铸态合金的裂纹主要沿枝晶间分布,在(γ+γ′)共晶组织处萌生;当固溶温度较低时,且枝晶干处析出了较多的TCP(topologically close-packed)相,未能充分降低Re元素的偏析可能是导致枝晶干处TCP相大量析出的主要原因;当固溶温度较高时,TCP相析出量较少。     

一种单晶高温合金中g?相的析出行为

研究了固溶冷却速度和时效时间对一种镍基单晶高温合金中γ′相的析出的影响。合金经1 250℃固溶处理4 h,从炉中快速取出,分别进行空冷、油冷和水冷,以考察冷却速度对γ′相析出的影响。随后对固溶处理后试样进行时效处理,以考察时效时间和固溶冷却速度对γ′相长大的影响。结果表明,合金在固溶处理后,γ′相尺寸随固溶冷却速率的升高而下降。在时效处理时,γ′相尺寸的增大率随固溶冷却速度的增大而减小;随着时效时间的增加,γ′相的尺寸增加。

叶片在服役过程中主要承受〈001〉轴向的离心载荷,由离心应力导致的蠕变损伤是叶片的主要失效机制之一。基于单晶叶片的典型服役条件,总结了国内外关于高温低应力和中温高应力蠕变变形损伤机制的研究现状,指出深入开展含典型缺陷单晶高温合金蠕变行为、氧化和热腐蚀对单晶合金蠕变-疲劳变形损伤机制影响研究十分必要。     

晶体取向对一种单晶高温合金再结晶的影响

采用晶体劳厄衍射仪对高温合金DD419的单晶试棒铸件进行晶向测量,切取不同一次晶向及二次晶向的样品。对各种晶体取向的样品实施相同的静压加载,然后进行标准固溶热处理。研究结果表明：样品受压表面下方发生了不同程度的再结晶,再结晶的深度与晶体取向具有明显的相关性。当一次晶向[001]与样品表面法向的偏离角度β从0°到90°变化时,样品的再结晶深度H首先逐渐增加,在β=45°时达到最大值,然后逐渐减小至初始值。当二次晶向[010]与样品法向的偏离角度α从0°到45°变化时,样品再结晶深度H也是逐渐增加,在α=45°时同样达到最大深度。单晶高温合金中一次晶向和二次晶向对再结晶具有相同的影响规律。

单晶镍基高温合金微铣削力试验

以单晶镍基高温合金DD98为研究对象,从单晶高温合金微观组织分析材料去除机理,得出DD98滑移面为密排面{111},滑移向为密排方向110,克服阻力最小,最易滑移.采用双刃微铣刀对单晶镍基高温合金DD98进行正交试验,通过极差分析比较获得切削参数对微铣削力的影响程度.结果表明,主轴转速的影响最大,进给速度其次,铣削深度最小.通过优化获得理想的切削参数为:主轴转速36 000 r/min,铣削深度5μm,进给速度20μm/s,此时微铣削力最小.并对其原因进行深入分析,为单晶高温合金的微加工理论的机理揭示提供理论参考和试验依据.     

一种镍基单晶高温合金的反相热机械疲劳行为

采用扫描电镜、透射电镜等方法研究了一种镍基单晶高温合金在600～900℃的反相位热机械疲劳行为,旨在探讨单晶合金的热疲劳变形及断裂机制,丰富单晶合金热机械疲劳理论。试验结果表明:当应变幅由0.6%增大至0.9%时,热机械疲劳寿命下降,塑性应变量和应力范围增大。合金的循环应力响应曲线在低温半周表现为循环硬化行为,而在高温半周则表现为循环软化行为。合金主要的变形特征是局部区域滑移带的运动。热机械疲劳裂纹起始于试样表面应力集中处,并沿着滑移带在{111}面向合金内部扩展,拉应力对合金的断裂起到了主导作用。     

Effects of Mo addition on microstructure of a 4th generation Ni-based single crystal superalloy

The effects of Mo addition on the microstructure of a 4th generation Ni-based single crystal superalloy were investigated. Mo addition significantly promoted elements Mo, W and Re partition into γ phase and enhanced absolute lattice misfit at 1100 ?°C. The increase of Mo concentration from 2 ?wt% to 4 ?wt% also decreased the content of eutectic islands and the segregation ratios of other alloying elements in the as-cast state, especially Re and W. After heat treatments, the size of γ′ phase and width of γ channels decreased slightly with higher Mo content. More Mo additions slightly enhanced the segregation behavior of Re while reducing the segregation behavior of Mo. However, it revealed that the primary and secondary dendrite arm spacings were barely affected by Mo addition.     

Influence of minor boron on the microstructures of a second generation Nibased single crystal superalloy

Boron is added into single crystal superalloys as a micro-alloying element to strengthen low angle grain boundaries.However,systematic investigations on the effect of boron on microstructures of single crystal superalloys are limitedly reported.The effect of boron on as-cast and heat-treated microstructures was investigated in two experimental Ni-based single crystal superalloys containing 3 wt% Re.The current results indicated that the volume fraction of(γ+γ′)eutectic and M_3B_2 borides was evidently increased,while the number of micropores was evidently decreased with the addition of 0.02 wt% boron.The(γ+γ′)eutectic could not be dissolved completely due to the lower incipient melting temperature caused by the formation of M_3B_2 borides.Meanwhile,the M_3B_2 borides were found to be enriched with indispensable strengthening elements Cr,Mo,W and Re,and this may lower the strengthening effect and cause stress concentration during high temperature creep.     

Effect of Mo content on microstructure and stress-rupture properties of a Ni-base single crystal superalloy

The additional 1.5 wt% Mo was added in a Ni-base single crystal(SC) alloy with the composition of Ni–6.5Al–8.0Mo–2.4Cr–6.2Ta–4.9Co–1.5Re–(0.01–0.05)Y(wt%) to study the effect of Mo content on the microstructure and stress-rupture properties. The creep and stress-rupture tests under the conditions of 850 °C/500 MPa and 1100 °C/130 MPa were conducted, and the microstructure of as-cast, heat treated and stress ruptured specimens were analyzed. It was found that the 1.5 wt% Mo addition enhanced the stress-rupture lives at both intermediate(850 °C) and high(1100 °C)temperatures. The microstructure analysis showed that adding 1.5 wt% Mo in the basic alloy affected the microstructure dramatically, i.e., the Mo-rich phases formed in the specimens of as-cast and stress-ruptured specimens. It is considered that the improvement of the stress-rupture lives is duo to the strengthening effect of Mo to both γ and γ'phases and the decrease of stacking fault energy, diffusion constant and dislocation spacing. The Mo-rich phases precipitated under condition of 1100 °C/130 MPa did not affect the creep and stress-rupture properties obviously in the present study.     

应力时效对镍基单晶合金DD11组织及持久性能的影响

研究了1070℃/100MPa应力时效对镍基单晶合金DD11组织和持久性能的影响,通过扫描电镜和透射电镜对应力时效前后的组织进行了观察和分析,并对合金应力时效前后的持久性能进行了测试与分析。实验结果表明:应力时效前50h是形筏阶段,竖直方向的γ相通道逐步变窄或消失,水平方向的γ相通道宽度逐步增加,立方状γ′相在应力的作用下向水平方向扩展并相互连接在一起逐渐形成筏排形貌。应力时效50h后是筏排粗化阶段,随应力时效时间的延长,组织缓慢粗化,但是筏排形貌基本保持稳定。对应力时效后的组织进行1 070℃/140 MPa持久性能测试,结果表明,在形筏阶段持久寿命基本保持稳定,在筏排粗化阶段,持久寿命逐步下降。应力时效500h后,持久寿命由热处理后初始状态的360h左右降低至140h左右。研究结果表明,γ相通道尺寸的粗化和组织的筏排化是持久性能衰退的主要因素。     

High temperature creep mechanisms of a single crystal superalloy: A phasefield simulation and microstructure characterization

The high temperature creep behavior of a single crystal Ni-based superalloy was studied by combined experimental and numerical methods. The creep test results showed that the creep curves exhibited a three-stage feature. The qualitative explanations for each stage of the creep curves were carried out based on the microstructure characterizations of γ/γ′ phases and dislocations. An elastoplasticity incorporated phase-field model was developed to provide quantitative understanding on directional coarsening(rafting) of γ′ phase. The simulation results showed that the directionality of γ′ coarsening was induced by both dislocation activity in γchannels and elastic inhomogeneity between γ and γ' phases, therein the dislocation activity played a major role.This findings provide new insights into the design of novel single crystal superalloys with improved creep properties.
