Problems solved by technology

This method takes advantage of the powder metallurgy method, shortens the process flow, improves the finished product rate, and reduces energy consumption. However, the powder yield in the process of smelting and atomizing pulverization is still a bottleneck restricting production costs, and after sintering The resulting product density is not high enough (<98%), and the oxygen content is high, thus affecting product performance
If the density is increased by means of hot isostatic pressing, the production cost will be increased.

Abstract

The invention discloses a process for preparing a metallurgical powder product from titanium hydride powder preparedmade by hydrogenating sponge titanium instead of titanium powder. The process comprises the following steps of: firstly, hydrogenating sponge titanium, crushing and, rating and mixing brittle titanium hydride, and mixing the titanium hydride with an alloy element; and then, carryingout near-net shape pressing to finish dehydrogenation in a vacuum sintering process. In the process of directly forming the titanium hydride powder, because of the secondary crushing of the brittle titanium hydride powder, the pressed green density is higher than that obtainedan occasion when titanium or titanium alloy powder is used, and the titanium is prevented from being oxidized. In the sintering process, the density of a sintering blank can rapidly rise (to be higher than 99 percent) because of the decomposition of the titanium hydride. The method has the characteristics short process flows, high yield and product density, low cost and oxygen content and good performance.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of metal powder preparation and production, in particular to the field of production and processing of titanium and titanium alloys. Background technique [0002] Production of titanium materials such as figure 1 Firstly, the sponge titanium and its alloys must be melted and cast into large ingots, then blanked, forged, and then various titanium materials are obtained by rolling, extrusion, etc., and finally mechanically processed to produce products. This method has a long process route, large investment in equipment, high energy consumption and high loss in titanium smelting, and a low rate of blanking and rolling, resulting in high production costs. [0003] The traditional powder metallurgy method produces titanium materials such as figure 2 , first melt the titanium and its alloys and then atomize to make powder, after classification and mixing, carry out near-net shape pressing, and then vacuum sintering. Th...
