The invention discloses a carbon
fiber reinforced
titanium alloy compound material and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method comprises the steps as follows: 1, preprocessing a carbon
fiber; 2, conducting chemical
copper plating on the surface of the carbon
fiber, namely
coating copper onto the surface of the carbon fiber by utilizing a
chemical plating method; 3, conducting chemical
vapor phase deposition on pure
tungsten, namely conducting chemical
vapor phase deposition on the surface of the
copper-coated carbon fiber to obtain a
tungsten deposition layer; 4,
cutting according to the design requirement to obtain the carbon fiber with the
proper length; and 5, mixing
powder according to the design requirement of
titanium alloy content, placing a mixture and the carbon fiber into a pressing mould for hot-press forming, and
sintering to obtain the carbon fiber reinforced
titanium alloy compound material in the required shape at last. According to the carbon fiber reinforced
titanium alloy compound material prepared by the method, the compositionality is good, the
titanium alloy content is adjustable, the carbon fiber distribution is controllable, and the carbon fiber is not decarburized. The carbon fiber reinforced
titanium alloy compound material is high in
specific modulus, low in density, high in
specific strength and
impact toughness and good in adiabatic shear failure resistance, and is a high-performance
structural material.
