Problems solved by technology

[0003] Niobium and tantalum are metal elements in titanium alloys. The addition of niobium and tantalum in the production of domestic titanium alloys is mainly in the form of simple metals, and there will be the following problems: the cost of single metals of niobium and tantalum is too high; niobium and tantalum are refractory metals, And the melting point is very high; the uniformity of titanium alloy composition is not good, and the titanium alloy ingot will have large segregation, which cannot meet the requirements of titanium alloy preparation
The advantages of the above two methods are simple equipment, convenient operation, and low investment. The disadvantages are that the uniformity of the alloy is poor, and impurity elements, especially gas phase impurity elements such as oxygen and nitrogen, cannot be controlled, which directly affects the quality of titanium alloys.

Abstract

The invention provides an aluminum-niobium-tantalum intermediate alloy and a preparing method thereof and relates to the technical field of metal materials. The aluminum-niobium-tantalum intermediatealloy comprises, by mass, 8.0%-12.0% of Nb, 30.0%-34.0% of Ta and the balance Al. due to component and content control, the components of the aluminum-niobium-tantalum intermediate alloy are uniform,segregation is small, when the titanium alloy is smelted, titanium alloy component homogenization is facilitated, and component segregation is prevented. The preparing method of the aluminum-niobium-tantalum intermediate alloy is provided. The aluminum-niobium-tantalum intermediate alloy is prepared through a two-step method, namely the two steps of the thermit reaction and vacuum smelting are conducted. By means of the preparing method, homogenization stability of the components of the aluminum-niobium-tantalum intermediate alloy can be improved, the content of impurities of O, N and the likeis reduced, and the requirement for titanium alloy production can be better met.
