Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of medium-entropy alloys, and relates to a high-strength, high-ductility and corrosion-resistant FeCrNiAlTi-based medium-entropy alloy with a tensile strength of 1500 MPa and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] High-entropy alloys are one of the important developments in the field of materials in the past decade or so. They are multi-principal-element metallic materials with configurational entropy as the core design index. They have structural characteristics different from those of traditional metals, so they have unique deformation mechanisms and mechanical property characteristics. In addition, due to their variety, they bring opportunities to the field of material development, attracting extensive research by domestic and foreign research scholars, especially the mechanical properties are the research focus. After more than a decade of research, the design of high-entropy alloys has gradually developed towards alloying "performance-oriented". The composition ratio can be non-equiatomic ratio, and at the same time, the existence of second phases such as precipitated phases or intermetallic compounds is tolerated. Medium-entropy alloys are developed on this basis.
[0003] For both medium-entropy alloys and high-entropy alloys, researchers improve the strength and plasticity of alloys by changing the elemental composition, microstructure and structure of the alloys, and using various strengthening methods such as grain refinement and precipitation. Among them, high-density dispersed nano-precipitates can effectively improve the alloy strength without sacrificing plasticity, and are applied to the development of high-strength medium / high-entropy alloys. Patent Publication No. CN108193088A discloses a precipitation-strengthened AlCrFeNiV system high-entropy alloy and its preparation method. The atomic stoichiometric ratios of the components in the high-entropy alloy are Al 0.30-0.60, Cr 0.20-0.89, Fe 0.60-1.20, Ni 1.50-3.50, and V 0.10-0.30, and it is prepared by a melting and forming process and a thermomechanical treatment process. By regulating the content of each element and optimizing the synthesis process, this invention obtains a modulated structure with coherent two phases of disordered FCC and ordered L12, and the grains are fine, significantly improving the strength of the high-entropy alloy. Its yield strength exceeds 1200 MPa, and its tensile strength exceeds 1300 MPa. In the prior art, researchers (Yang T, Zhao Y L, Tong Y, et al, Multicomponent intermetallic nanoparticles and superb mechanical behaviors of complex alloys. Science, 2018, 362:933-937.) used traditional thermodynamics methods for composition screening and microstructure control, controllably prepared ductile multi-component intermetallic nanoparticles in the (FeCoNi)86Al7Ti7 alloy, and controlled the order-disorder phase transformation and elemental partitioning to achieve the strengthening and toughening of the alloy, making the tensile strength of the alloy as high as 1.5 GPa while maintaining a post-elongation rate of up to 50%. Literature reports (Du, X.H., Li, W.P., Chang, H.T. et al. Dual heterogeneous structures lead to ultrahigh strength and uniform ductility in a Co-Cr-Ni medium-entropy alloy. Nat Commun, 2020, 11:2390.) adopted cryogenic large-deformation cold rolling to introduce a dual-phase heterogeneous structure in the Co-Cr-Ni medium-entropy alloy combined with precipitation strengthening to effectively improve the strength of the alloy, making the strength of the alloy as high as 2.2 GPa while maintaining excellent elongation performance of 13%.
[0004] The currently disclosed ultra-high strength medium / high entropy alloys have good strength-ductility matching, which is superior to the properties of traditional materials. However, most of them contain a large amount of Ni and Co elements. The high cost and the difficult-to-scale-up process routes such as cryogenic cold rolling seriously restrict their potential for commercial application. At the same time, although the reported high strength medium / high entropy alloys have excellent mechanical properties, their corrosion resistance has not been considered or evaluated. Scholars generally believe that medium / high entropy alloys with excellent mechanical properties may be applied to harsh conditions or even extreme service environments, so it is very necessary to evaluate their corrosion resistance. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The object of the present invention is to provide a high strength, high plasticity and corrosion resistant FeCrNiAlTi-based medium entropy alloy with a tensile strength of 1500 MPa level and its preparation method, so as to obtain a high strength and high plasticity medium entropy alloy with a tensile strength ≥ 1500 MPa and an elongation after fracture ≥ 12% at a lower cost, and with good corrosion resistance. The preparation method of this medium entropy alloy is economical, safe and reliable.
[0006] To achieve the above object, the present invention is realized through the following technical solutions:
[0007] A high strength, high plasticity and corrosion resistant FeCrNiAlTi-based medium entropy alloy with a tensile strength of 1500 MPa level, and the chemical composition of this medium entropy alloy by weight percentage is:
[0008] Fe a%; Cr b%; Ni c%; Al d%; Ti e%; Mo f%; Cu g%; P i%; S j%; wherein, 58 < a < 66, 11 ≤ b < 13, 18 ≤ c ≤ 20, 2 ≤ d ≤ 3, 2 ≤ e ≤ 3, 1 ≤ f ≤ 2, 0 ≤ g ≤ 1, i ≤ 0.001, j ≤ 0.001, a + b + c + d + e + f + g + i + j = 100; the mixing entropy is 1R - 1.5R, R = 8.314 J / (mol*K).
[0009] The purity of the metal raw materials of Fe, Cr, Ni, Al, Ti, Mo, and Cu is all ≥ 99.9 wt.%.
[0010] The addition of Ni in the FeCrNiAlTi medium-entropy alloy mainly stabilizes the FCC structure, making the stable structure of the alloy at room temperature the FCC structure, ensuring the cold-working plastic deformation ability and the plasticity of the alloy. The addition of Cr and Mo elements mainly ensures that the alloy has a certain corrosion resistance, and at the same time can form σ-phase and χ-phase rich in Cr and Mo elements. The main purpose of adding Al and Ti elements is to promote the formation of B2-phase rich in Ni and Al elements. After homogenization of the alloy, large-deformation cold rolling can provide more nucleation points for the precipitated phases. The medium-temperature aging process ensures the precipitation of the precipitated phases while restricting the growth of the precipitated phases. The nano-precipitates distributed dispersedly can play a significant precipitation strengthening role, while the soft FCC matrix can effectively slow down the crack formation and crack propagation. The soft matrix and the hard second phases such as σ-phase, χ-phase and B2-phase work together to make the alloy achieve excellent strength-ductility matching performance.
[0011] A preparation method of a high-strength, high-ductility and corrosion-resistant FeCrNiAlTi medium-entropy alloy with a tensile strength of 1500 MPa grade. Using an electric arc furnace for melting, after homogenizing the sample, plastic processing and forming are carried out, and then the medium-entropy alloy is obtained after aging treatment; specifically, it includes the following steps:
[0012] 1) Prepare raw materials: Weigh and mix the constituent elements of the medium-entropy alloy according to the described weight percentages.
[0013] 2) Electric arc furnace melting: It is carried out under the protection of argon with a content of more than 99.99%. The melting current is 350 - 450 A, and the ingot is turned over and remelted at least 4 times. The melting time for each time is 60 ± 20 s, and finally an ingot with uniform composition is obtained.
[0014] 3) Homogenization treatment: The ingot is homogenized at 1000℃ - 1200℃ for 2 h - 12 h and then quenched and water-cooled.
[0015] 4) Cold rolling forming
[0016] 5) Aging treatment: The rolled sample is aged at 500℃ - 700℃ for 2 h - 12 h and then water-cooled to obtain the high-strength, high-ductility and corrosion-resistant medium-entropy alloy.
[0017] In the described cold rolling forming, the total cold rolling deformation amount is 80% - 85%.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0019] The high-strength, high-ductility and corrosion-resistant FeCrNiAlTi medium-entropy alloy with a tensile strength of 1500 MPa grade has good corrosion resistance, the tensile strength ≥ 1500 MPa, the elongation after fracture ≥ 12%, does not contain high-cost elements such as Co, and saves Ni, reducing the preparation cost, which is beneficial to industrial production; the preparation method of the present invention is economical, safe and reliable, and is also applicable to large-scale production.
[0020] This medium-entropy alloy can be used to prepare cold-rolled thin sheets and cold-drawn wires, with both high strength and corrosion resistance, and can be applied to fields such as national defense and military industry, cross-sea bridges, etc. It has a very broad development prospect and high industrial development potential.
