Abstract

The invention discloses titanium or titanium alloy spherical powder with rare earth oxide distributed on the surface. Flaky rare earth oxide with the equivalent diameter being 100-1000nm and the thickness being 20-50nm is in dispersed distribution on the surface of the powder; and with formation of the rare earth oxide, the surface properties of the powder and the adhesion performance among the powder are changed, bonding among the powder is reduced, the quantity of satellite powder is reduced, the quality of the powder is improved, and a new raw material selection is provided for 3D printingof titanium or titanium alloy. In addition, the invention further provides a preparation method for the titanium or titanium alloy spherical powder. In the method, by using the titanium or titanium alloy and rare earth metals, including yttrium, neodymium and gadolinium, as raw materials and controlling technological parameters of a vacuum induction melting gas atomization powder preparation, oxidation of the rare earth metals before being unmolten is reduced, the fluidity of a melt is improved, a pressure difference between a smelting chamber and an atomization chamber is increased, and preparation of the titanium or titanium alloy spherical powder with the rare earth oxide distributed on the surface is realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of metal powder materials, in particular to a titanium or titanium alloy spherical powder with rare earth oxides distributed on the surface and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Titanium or titanium alloy 3D printing has very broad application prospects in aerospace, biomedical and automotive fields. At present, the two main types of titanium or titanium alloy 3D printing technologies are: powder feeding method and powder spreading method. Both methods use spherical titanium or titanium alloy spherical powder with good fluidity as raw material, and the performance of the powder raw material depends to a large extent. It affects the performance of titanium or titanium alloy 3D printed devices. The spherical titanium or titanium alloy spherical powder prepared by gas atomization is the most used in the field of 3D printing. However, the titanium or titanium alloy spherical powder pre...
