Problems solved by technology

Especially for the brittle material TiAl, after the welding melting-solidification process, the microstructure in the weld changes from a microstructure with good plasticity to a brittle supersaturated Ti 3 Al phase, the supersaturated phase has a large internal stress of the structure, and the structure is very brittle, which greatly reduces the plasticity of the joint and increases the tendency of cracking
In addition, during the welding process, due to the concentration of electron beam welding energy, the cooling rate is significantly higher than other welding methods. The increase in cooling rate will increase the residual tensile stress at the weld position. In the welding process of brittle materials, the residual stress The increase of will cause the material to crack and form cracks, so in the process of electron beam welding brittle materials, how to eliminate cracks is a problem that must be studied

Abstract

The invention relates to a TiAl / TC4 electronic-beam melting-brazing method with addition of an alloy middle layer. The TiAl / TC4 electronic-beam melting-brazing method comprises the following steps: presetting the middle metal layer consisting of Ni and Nb at the positions of welding seams by TiAl / TC4 electronic beams; and obtaining a high-strength and no-crack TiAl / TC4 electronic-beam welding joint by selecting reasonable middle-layer components, the middle-layer distribution mode, the middle-layer thickness and electronic-beam welding process parameters. In addition, the TiAl / TC4 electronic-beam melting-brazing method is short in welding process flow, simple in operation and easy in implementation and has strong practicability.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a TiAl / TC4 electron beam melting and brazing method with an alloy intermediate layer added, belonging to the field of brittle material welding. Background technique [0002] In the aerospace industry, the structural service conditions are harsh, and they often work in harsh environments such as high temperature, heat resistance, corrosion, and low temperature, so there are high requirements for the performance of materials. In addition, strict restrictions on the weight of the structure put forward higher requirements for the lightweight of materials. Therefore, TiAl, a new material with light weight, high strength, high specific modulus, and high specific strength, has been widely used in the aerospace field. Cracks occur, which greatly limits its popularization and application. [0003] The electron beam welding process carried out in a vacuum environment eliminates the harm of harmful impurities in the air to the weld and ...
