Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of medium-entropy alloy additive manufacturing, and in particular to an ODS / NiCoCr medium-entropy alloy and a preparation method thereof, an additive manufacturing process and a printed part. Background Art
[0002] Medium entropy alloys (MEAs) have many excellent properties over traditional metal materials due to their unique composition design and optimized microstructure. In particular, NiCoCr medium entropy alloys with face-centered cubic (FCC) structure have become the representative of the MEA family due to their excellent mechanical properties and damage tolerance, excellent radiation resistance and corrosion resistance, and have attracted attention due to their extremely high fracture plasticity and unique deformation mechanism at low temperatures. Medium entropy alloys exhibit good physical and mechanical properties both at room temperature and low temperature. The alloys show excellent tensile strength and ductility combination in a wide temperature range (-196°℃ to 400°C), especially in low temperature environments. This property makes them have better application potential under extreme conditions. However, the high-temperature strength and plasticity of NiCoCr medium entropy alloys currently prepared by additive manufacturing technology are insufficient. Residual stress and microcracks are the key factors affecting the improvement of their high-temperature strength and plasticity, especially when the use temperature is ≥500°C, and higher environments (≥1000°C) hinder their further application.
[0003] Selective laser sintering (SLM) is the mainstream additive manufacturing process for metals and alloys. It prepares parts for engineering applications by printing layer by layer. This technology has the characteristics of rapid heating / cyclic cooling. The large temperature gradient and rapid cooling during the laser forming process lead to large stresses inside the alloy, especially for the single-phase structure and intrinsic characteristics of the crystal structure of medium-entropy alloys. The macroscopic manifestation of the SLM-formed NiCoCr medium-entropy alloy in the material is that the printed samples are usually distributed with a large number of defects such as cracks and pores, resulting in a serious lack of plasticity of the medium-entropy alloy in additive manufacturing.
[0004] Oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) alloys are alloys that are dispersion strengthened by adding fine oxide particles. The strengthening mechanism is mainly attributed to the Hall-Petch effect, a large number of grain boundaries per unit volume, and the Orowan strengthening mechanism induced by the reinforcing particles. By adding nano-oxide particles, a nano-coherent interface structure is constructed in the ODS / alloy matrix, which will give the composite material a stronger interface bonding, significantly relieve stress, inhibit interface defects and microcracks, and enhance the alloy strengthening and toughening effect.
[0005] How to provide an ODS medium-entropy alloy suitable for additive manufacturing, improve the high-temperature strength and plasticity of the medium-entropy alloy, and broaden its operating temperature range is of great significance to the development of medium-entropy alloys.

[0051] The technical scheme of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, but it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the following described embodiments are part of embodiments of the present invention, rather than all embodiments, and are only used to illustrate the present invention, and should not be considered as limiting the scope of the present invention. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative work, all belong to the scope of protection of the present invention. If the specific conditions are not indicated in the embodiments, they are carried out according to the normal conditions or the conditions recommended by the manufacturer. If the manufacturer is not indicated in the reagents or instruments used, they are all conventional products that can be purchased commercially.
[0052] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms “first”, “second” and “third” are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0053] In the prior art, by adding nano-oxide particles, a nano-coherent interface structure is constructed in the ODS / alloy matrix, which will give the composite material a stronger interface bond, which can significantly reduce stress, inhibit interface defects and microcracks, and enhance the alloy toughening effect. Usually, the particle size of the reinforcing phase at the nano level will be more beneficial to the synergistic improvement of the strength and plasticity of the ODS alloy. The nanoscale ODS phase can reduce the probability of stress concentration and crack generation and expansion inside the reinforcing phase during the plastic deformation of the SLM alloy. Its size, quantity, distribution and interface structure are closely related to the toughening effect. However, due to the small size, large specific surface area and high activity of nano-oxide particles, when the addition amount is high or when the size of the reinforcing particles is reduced to a certain scale, under the action of the huge van der Waals force, agglomeration is likely to occur during the preparation of the composite powder, affecting the uniformity of the composite powder, and easily leading to stress concentration of the printed part and a high density of defects such as cracks, which will be detrimental to obtaining uniform microstructure and excellent mechanical properties.
[0054] In the traditional ball milling technology for preparing ODS / alloy composite powder, although ODS / alloy composite powder containing nanoparticles can be obtained, a small amount of nano ODS particles are still agglomerated after ball milling, which makes the composite material have poor plasticity. In addition, the ball milling method uses grinding balls as grinding media. The strong collision impact during the mixing process and the high energy generated will change the shape of the spherical particles of the alloy powder, destroy its surface morphology and sphericity, and make its fluidity worse. In addition, there are cases where alloy powder particles are welded together, and the number and size of irregularly shaped powders are increased. The control window of ball milling process parameters is extremely narrow, which reduces the quality and qualified rate of composite powders, the stability of powders is poor, and the product cost is increased. The poor sphericity and fluidity also directly affect the uniformity and stability of powder spreading during the SLM process, and ultimately lead to uneven metal melting in the scanning area and the formation of internal defects, such as unfused areas, unreacted reinforcement phase particles, pores and microcracks, etc., which reduce mechanical properties.
[0055] Based on this, the present invention provides a method for preparing an ODS / NiCoCr medium-entropy alloy, which adopts nano Y2O3 as dispersion-enhanced particles and utilizes the technology of resonant acoustic mixing to prepare an ODS / NiCoCr medium-entropy alloy composite powder with high coverage, sphericity and good flowability through coordinated regulation of resonant acoustic mixing and Y2O3 addition.
[0056] The present invention provides a method for preparing an ODS / NiCoCr medium entropy alloy, comprising the following steps:
[0057] The Y2O3 powder is resonantly acoustically mixed with the NiCoCr medium entropy alloy powder; the Y2O3 powder is added in batches;
[0058] The resonant sound mixing includes: a vibration frequency of 30 to 85 Hz, an acceleration of 3 g to 100 g, and a vibration time of 80 to 160 min.
[0059] The present invention coordinates the resonant acoustic mixing and Y2O3 addition mode, does not change the alloy powder morphology, and Y2O3 is not agglomerated and is evenly coated, and the prepared ODS / NiCoCr medium entropy alloy composite powder has high sphericity and good fluidity, and no medium pollution. The preparation process parameters of the composite powder of the present invention are easy to control, and the powder performance stability and consistency are good.
[0060] For example, in different embodiments, in the resonant acoustic mixing, the vibration frequency can be 30Hz, 35Hz, 40Hz, 45Hz, 50Hz, 55Hz, 60Hz, 65Hz, 70Hz, 75Hz, 80Hz or a range consisting of any two thereof, the acceleration can be 3g, 5g, 8g, 10g, 20g, 30g, 40g, 60g, 80g, 100g or a range consisting of any two thereof, and the vibration time can be 80min, 90min, 100min, 120min, 140min, 160min or a range consisting of any two thereof. Wherein, the g in acceleration refers to the acceleration due to gravity, g=9.8m / s 2 It should be noted that the italicized g in the present invention represents the acceleration due to gravity, so as to distinguish it from the mass unit (gram) g.
[0061] In actual operation, the Y2O3 powder can be subjected to ultrasonic dispersion treatment in anhydrous ethanol in advance, and then left to stand until the anhydrous ethanol evaporates to obtain uniformly dispersed Y2O3 powder. In the ultrasonic dispersion, the ultrasonic frequency can be 20 to 22 KHz, and the ultrasonic time can be 12 to 14 hours. Through the above ultrasonic dispersion treatment, it can be further ensured that the Y2O3 powder has no obvious agglomeration phenomenon.
[0062] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, a single resonant acoustic mixing is performed after each addition of Y2O3 powder; the single resonant acoustic mixing includes a first stage and a second stage, the vibration frequency in the first stage is smaller than the vibration frequency in the second stage, the acceleration in the first stage is smaller than the acceleration in the second stage, and the vibration time in the first stage is smaller than the vibration time in the second stage.
[0063] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, in the first stage, the vibration frequency is 30-50 Hz, the acceleration is 3g-25g, and the vibration time is 3-8 min; in the second stage, the vibration frequency is 60-85 Hz, the acceleration is 40g-100g, and the vibration time is 10-70 min.
[0064] For example, in different embodiments, in the first stage, the vibration frequency can be 30Hz, 35Hz, 40Hz, 45Hz, 50Hz or a range consisting of any two thereof, the acceleration can be 3g, 5g, 8g, 10g, 15g, 20g, 25g or a range consisting of any two thereof, and the vibration time can be 3min, 4min, 5min, 6min, 7min, 8min or a range consisting of any two thereof. In the second stage, the vibration frequency can be 60Hz, 65Hz, 70Hz, 75Hz, 80Hz, 85Hz or a range consisting of any two thereof, the acceleration can be 40g, 50g, 60g, 70g, 80g, 90g, 100g or a range consisting of any two thereof, and the vibration time can be 10min, 20min, 30min, 40min, 50min, 60min, 70min or a range consisting of any two thereof.
[0065] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, adjacent single resonance sound mixtures satisfy at least one of the following characteristics:
[0066] (1) The acceleration in the first stage of the subsequent single resonance sound mixing is greater than the acceleration in the first stage of the previous single resonance sound mixing;
[0067] (2) the acceleration in the second stage of the subsequent single resonance sound mixing is greater than the acceleration in the second stage of the preceding single resonance sound mixing;
[0068] (3) the vibration frequency in the second stage of the subsequent single resonance sound mixing is greater than the vibration frequency in the second stage of the previous single resonance sound mixing;
[0069] (4) The vibration time in the second stage of the subsequent single resonance sound mixing is greater than the vibration time in the second stage of the preceding single resonance sound mixing.
[0070] In the resonant acoustic mixing process, when the natural frequency of the mixed material is close to the frequency of the external device, the mixed material will resonate, the vibration amplitude will increase, and the material mixing effect will be better. As the material is added and the degree of mixing continues to change, the natural frequency of the mixed material changes. The present invention further improves the mixing and coating effects by adjusting the frequency, acceleration, vibration time, etc. of the resonant acoustic mixing equipment.
[0071] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, in the first stage of the first single resonance sound mixing, the vibration frequency is 30-50 Hz; in the second stage of the first single resonance sound mixing, the vibration frequency is 60-65 Hz.
[0072] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the acceleration in the second stage of the first single resonance sound mixing is 40g to 50g. Further, the difference between the acceleration in the second stage of the subsequent single resonance sound mixing and the acceleration in the second stage of the previous single resonance sound mixing is ≥20g.
[0073] For example, in different embodiments, the difference between the acceleration in the second stage of the subsequent single resonant sound mixing and the acceleration in the second stage of the previous single resonant sound mixing can be 20g, 21g, 22g, 23g, 24g, 25g, 26g, 27g, 28g, 29g, 30g or a range consisting of any two of them.
[0074] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, Y2O3 powder is added at least three times, including but not limited to 3 times, 4 times, 5 times, etc.
[0075] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the single addition amount of Y2O3 powder increases gradually. Further, 15% to 25% of the total amount of Y2O3 powder is added for the first time, 25% to 35% of the total amount of Y2O3 powder is added for the second time, and 45% to 55% of the total amount of Y2O3 powder is added for the third time.
[0076] For example, in different embodiments, 15%, 18%, 20%, 22%, 25% or any range consisting of two of the total amount of Y2O3 powder can be added for the first time; 25%, 28%, 30%, 32%, 35% or any range consisting of two of the total amount of Y2O3 powder can be added for the second time; 45%, 48%, 50%, 52%, 55% or any range consisting of two of the total amount of Y2O3 powder can be added for the third time.
[0077] Compared with other additive manufacturing processes, the SLM process has stricter requirements on powder sphericity, fluidity, surface quality and the particle size distribution range of the powder. Controlling the size of ODS enhanced particles at the nanoscale and achieving uniform distribution is the key to improving the strong plastic properties of SLM-molded ODS / medium entropy alloys. The SLM process uses a scraper to spread powder, and spherical or nearly spherical powders have good fluidity, the powder layer thickness can be thinner, and the high sphericity also ensures the rate stability of the powder spreading process, as well as the thickness uniformity and continuity of the powder bed, which is conducive to reducing the stress of the printed part and reducing defects such as cracks, thereby improving the dimensional accuracy and surface quality of the parts, obtaining high-density and uniform organization, and improving the surface quality and mechanical properties of the parts. Therefore, in the preparation process of the present invention, a method of gradually increasing the amount of Y2O3 added is adopted, and the parameters such as vibration frequency, acceleration, and mixing time in the resonant acoustic mixing are synchronously adjusted, so that the composite powder of the ODS / NiCoCr medium entropy alloy obtained simultaneously meets the requirements of narrow particle size distribution, high sphericity, good fluidity and high bulk density.
[0078] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, in the first stage of the first single resonant sound mixing, the vibration frequency is 30-50 Hz, the acceleration is 3g-7g, and the vibration time is 3-8 min. In the second stage of the first single resonant sound mixing, the vibration frequency is 60-65 Hz, the acceleration is 40g-50g, and the vibration time is 10-20 min. In the first stage of the second single resonant sound mixing, the vibration frequency is 30-50 Hz, the acceleration is 8g-12g, and the vibration time is 3-8 min. In the second stage of the second single resonant sound mixing, the vibration frequency is 65-75 Hz, the acceleration is 60g-80g, and the vibration time is 20-40 min. In the first stage of the third single resonant sound mixing, the vibration frequency is 30-50 Hz, the acceleration is 13g-25g, and the vibration time is 3-8 min. In the second stage of the third single resonant sound mixing, the vibration frequency is 75-85 Hz, the acceleration is 90g-100g, and the vibration time is 50-70 min.
[0079] By adopting the above-mentioned resonant acoustic mixing treatment conditions, in the ODS / NiCoCr medium-entropy alloy composite powder obtained, Y2O3 is coated on the outer surface of the alloy powder, and the powder coverage rate is ≥95% (powder coverage rate: the ratio of the surface area of the alloy powder coated with Y2O3 in the composite powder to the original surface area of the alloy powder), the coating layer is uniform and continuous, and the thickness is 1 to 3 μm; the sphericity of the alloy powder is not changed, the proportion of spherical and near-spherical powder in the composite powder is ≥95wt%, the fluidity is good, and the requirements of the SLM process for powder fluidity are met.
[0080] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, after the resonant acoustic mixing, the process further includes: screening treatment to collect materials with a particle size of 25 to 53 μm.
[0081] Through screening, materials meeting the SLM process requirements are obtained. In the composite powder obtained by the preparation method of the present invention, the proportion of particles with a particle size of 25 to 53 μm is ≥ 90 wt%.
[0082] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the Y2O3 powder and the NiCoCr medium entropy alloy powder are 0.1% to 2% and 98% to 99.9% respectively in terms of mass percentage.
[0083] For example, in different embodiments, the amount of Y2O3 powder can be 0.1%, 0.5%, 0.8%, 1%, 1.2%, 1.5%, 1.8%, 2% or a range consisting of any two thereof, and the amount of entropy alloy powder in NiCoCr can be 98%, 98.2%, 98.5%, 98.8%, 99%, 99.2%, 99.5%, 99.9% or a range consisting of any two thereof, calculated by mass percentage.
[0084] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the proportion of particles with a particle size of 21 to 60 μm in the NiCoCr medium entropy alloy powder is ≥ 99 wt %. Furthermore, the bulk density of the NiCoCr medium entropy alloy powder is ≥ 4.80 g / cm 3 , fluidity ≤16.3s / 50g.
