Abstract

A method for liquid hydrogenation refinement of solidification structure in the process of Ti-6Al-4V alloy induction skull melting relates to a liquid hydrogenation technology in the process of titanium alloy induction skull melting. The method solves the problem of slow speed of hydrogen permeation under titanium alloy atmosphere which is only applicable to the preparation of small specimen or thin specimen, but not to wide production. The detailed procedures of the method are as follows: the charging material of Ti-6Al-4V alloy is put into the crucible of an induction skull melter, heated and melted under the environment of high-purity argon and 400-700Pa pressure; pre-coated bars with the TiH2 of the weight accounting for 0.09 to 0.2 percent of the charging material are added in; when the hydrogen-contained titanium alloy in the crucible cools and the temperature drops below 300 DEG C, the charging material is vented off and cooled until the temperature equal to room temperature. The size of the Ti-6Al-4V alloy crystallization grain after the treatment of liquid hydrogenation with the method is smaller than 800 Mu m. The method is widely applicable in preparation of titanium alloys.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a technology for placing hydrogen in a liquid state in a titanium alloy induction shell smelting process and a method for refining a solidified structure of a titanium alloy. Background technique [0002] Ti-6Al-4V alloy is one of the most widely used titanium alloys, which can be cast and forged to obtain components. Titanium alloy has relatively high specific strength, good anti-corrosion, anti-oxidation, anti-fatigue ability, so it has been widely used in aviation, aerospace, navigation, chemical industry, medical and health, food and sports and other fields. The very large amount of titanium alloy used and the low processing efficiency caused by the mechanical properties of titanium alloy have become a prominent contradiction at present. [0003] The first step in the production and processing of Ti-6Al-4V alloy is that the solidification structure is relatively coarse when melting and casting titanium alloy ingots (castin...
