Problems solved by technology

Potassium-doped tungsten mainly uses nano-sized potassium bubbles formed in tungsten by trace amounts of potassium in the alloy to pin dislocations and grain boundaries to strengthen tungsten alloys. Potassium-doped tungsten has high strength, high thermal conductivity, high recrystallization, etc. Advantages, such as filaments have been widely used in the field of lighting, and it has also attracted widespread attention in the application of fusion reactor facing plasma wall materials, but potassium-doped tungsten has weak resistance to plasma etching, and usually requires a large amount of deformation Thermoplastic processing can obtain high strength and high temperature performance, and the strength and toughness of bulk products are low

Abstract

The invention discloses a potassium zirconium carbide co-doped tungsten alloy and a preparation method thereof. The tungsten alloy is composed of K, Al, Si, ZrC and W, and the K content is 0.003-0.03% and the ZrC content is 0.1% in weight percentage. ~1.5%, the total content of Al and Si alloy elements is less than or equal to 0.05%, the W content is 98.4~99.85%, and the rest are impurities. The tungsten alloy of the invention has excellent low temperature toughness, high temperature strength and high temperature stability, and has obvious plasticity at 150°C; the strength is much higher than that of potassium-doped tungsten and pure tungsten, and also significantly higher than that of tungsten-zirconium carbide alloy; After annealing at ℃ for 1 hour, the strength of the tungsten alloy of the present invention at 500 ℃ is more than 40% higher than that of potassium-doped tungsten and tungsten-zirconium carbide alloys under the same conditions. The plasma etching resistance of the invention is similar to that of tungsten-zirconium carbide alloy, but better than potassium-doped tungsten and pure tungsten.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of fusion reactor facing plasma wall materials, in particular to a potassium zirconium carbide co-doped tungsten alloy, and also relates to a preparation method of the tungsten alloy. Background technique [0002] The plasma-facing wall materials in nuclear fusion reactors need to serve under extremely harsh conditions such as high temperature, high thermal load shock, and high-energy particle bombardment, which is the key to the development of fusion energy. Due to its high melting point, high strength, low thermal expansion coefficient, high thermal conductivity, anti-sputtering, and low deuterium-tritium retention, metal tungsten is considered to be one of the most promising candidate wall materials for fusion reactors facing the plasma wall. However, tungsten has shortcomings such as room temperature brittleness (the ductile-brittle transition temperature of commercial pure tungsten is about 400°C), recrystallizat...
