Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of metallurgical technology, and more specifically, to a high-damping copper-titanium alloy, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of society, mechanical equipment is gradually developing towards high efficiency, high speed and automation. As a result, the problems of mechanical vibration, noise and fatigue damage are becoming increasingly prominent. Usually, noise occurs together with vibration. These two not only easily cause damage to mechanical structures, reduce the life of mechanical parts, reduce the precision of processing, and reduce the concealment of equipment, but also affect the comfort of human production and life. Therefore, it is necessary to adopt appropriate methods to reduce vibration and noise: (1) increase mass, improve rigidity and reduce resonance amplitude; (2) avoid resonance points; (3) attenuate vibration. In engineering, many methods and measures have been studied and developed to solve vibration and noise problems. Compared with traditional methods such as increasing rigidity and improving structural design, the use of high damping materials can fundamentally reduce vibration and noise without increasing the mass of equipment and the complexity of system structure. It is a very convenient and practical vibration and noise reduction control measure. Moreover, damping alloy materials have good mechanical properties. Under working conditions with high requirements for mechanical properties, damping alloy materials can show certain advantages. They can usually remain stable over a wide range of temperatures and frequencies.

[0003] However, with the continuous development of technology, the requirements for damping materials are getting higher and higher, especially the mechanical properties of damping alloys need to be further improved. In addition, conventional damping alloys have insufficient service stability and low service temperature. Among them, the maximum service temperature of multiphase alloys is about 150℃, the maximum service temperature of twinned alloys is 80℃, and the maximum service temperature of dislocation alloys is 150℃.

[0004] Therefore, it is of great significance to provide a copper-titanium alloy with high comprehensive mechanical properties and high damping performance.

[0035] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. However, those skilled in the art will understand that the embodiments described below are some embodiments of the present invention, but not all embodiments, and are only used to illustrate the present invention, and should not be regarded as limiting the scope of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Where specific conditions are not specified in the embodiments, conventional conditions or conditions recommended by the manufacturer shall be followed. Where the manufacturers of reagents or instruments are not specified, they are all conventional products that can be purchased commercially.

[0036] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a method for preparing a high-damping copper-titanium alloy, comprising the following steps:

[0037] Cu powder and Ti powder are mixed and ground in a mass ratio of 45 to 95 (including but not limited to the point values ​​of any one of 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90 or any range between two) to 5 to 55 (including but not limited to the point values ​​of any one of 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50 or any range between two). After grinding until the average particle size of the material is ≤35μm, it is cold-pressed to obtain an alloy billet.

[0038] Among them, the average particle size is ≤35μm, including but not limited to the point value of any one of 33μm, 30μm, 25μm, 23μm, 20μm, 15μm, 10μm, 5μm, 1μm or any range between two of them.

[0039] The billet obtained above is then melted at 1300-1500°C, then cast, and cooled at a cooling rate of 30-60°C / min to obtain a high-damping copper-titanium alloy.

[0040] The melting temperature of 1300-1500℃ includes, but is not limited to, any one of 1350℃, 1400℃, 1450℃, and 1480℃, or any range between two of them.

[0041] The cooling rate of 30 to 60℃ / min includes, but is not limited to, any one of 35℃ / min, 40℃ / min, 45℃ / min, 50℃ / min, and 55℃ / min, or any range between two of them.

[0042] The method for preparing high-damping copper-titanium alloy provided by this invention can produce high-damping copper-titanium alloy with excellent comprehensive mechanical properties and high damping performance.

[0043] The high-damping copper-titanium alloy prepared by this invention is a multiphase damping alloy. The multiphase damping alloy dissipates the vibration energy brought by stress as frictional heat by the micro-elastic deformation of the matrix structure under stress and the plastic flow or phase transformation of the second phase along the grain boundary. This achieves the purpose of improving the damping performance of the alloy.

[0044] Specifically, the present invention improves the damping and mechanical properties of the prepared copper-titanium alloy by using Cu powder and Ti powder with a specific mass ratio, mixing and grinding Cu powder and Ti powder to a specific particle size, performing melting treatment at a specific temperature, and cooling at a specific cooling rate.

[0045] More specifically, this invention improves the mechanical properties of copper-titanium alloys by controlling the mass ratio of Cu powder to Ti powder to be 45-95:5-55 and by employing a specific preparation method.

[0046] Meanwhile, by controlling the average particle size of the mixed Cu and Ti powders to be ≤35μm after grinding, the interfacial area of ​​the material is increased, improving interfacial torsion and interfacial slip. This effectively absorbs and dissipates strain energy in the material, thereby enhancing the damping performance of the copper-titanium alloy. Furthermore, the smaller powder particle size promotes solid-state diffusion and grain boundary migration, leading to a reduction in grain size and an increase in lattice defects, further improving the damping performance of the copper-titanium alloy.

[0047] Furthermore, by employing a specific melting temperature, this invention achieves two advantages: firstly, at higher liquid-solid reaction temperatures, the grain size of the solid metal (Ti atoms) decreases, resulting in larger grain boundary areas and providing more possibilities for the generation and movement of dislocations; secondly, higher liquid-solid reaction temperatures increase the lattice vibration energy of the solid metal, making existing dislocations easier to move and generating new dislocations. This increase in dislocations improves the damping performance of the alloy to some extent.

[0048] Furthermore, this invention employs a specific cooling rate during the casting process. The rapid cooling prevents atoms from diffusing quickly enough, causing the liquid metal in the alloy to solidify more rapidly, forming smaller grains and increasing the number of grain boundaries. The faster the solidification process, the easier it is to form high-density defects such as dislocations and twins, resulting in a smaller grain size in the resulting Cu-Ti alloy. This smaller grain size leads to a higher grain boundary density. When external forces are applied to the copper-titanium alloy, the grain boundaries, dislocations, twins, and other defects bear some of the shear stress, consuming energy and thus improving the alloy's damping performance.

[0049] In addition, the preparation method provided by the present invention has the advantages of short preparation time, high efficiency, safe and pollution-free preparation process, guaranteed repeatability, and more uniform distribution of copper-titanium alloy microstructure.

[0050] Preferably, the Cu powder comprises gas-atomized Cu powder, and the Ti powder comprises gas-atomized Ti powder.

[0051] By using gas-atomized Cu powder and gas-atomized Ti powder, the particle shape and size are more uniform, which is beneficial to improving damping performance.

[0052] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the purity of the gas-atomized Cu powder is ≥99.9%, and the purity of the gas-atomized Ti powder is ≥99.9%.

[0056] Using Cu and Ti powders within the aforementioned particle size range facilitates subsequent grinding to an average particle size ≤35μm, and also reduces costs.

[0063] Induction melting furnaces can provide higher melting temperatures and faster cooling rates, which helps to improve damping performance.

[0064] Preferably, the holding time for the melting treatment is 30 to 60 minutes, including but not limited to a value of 40 minutes or 50 minutes, or a range between the two.

[0065] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the cooling method includes water cooling.

[0066] In some specific embodiments of the invention, the casting and cooling are carried out in an induction melting furnace to provide a sufficiently large cooling rate.

[0068] The high-damping copper-titanium alloy is composed of Cu 45% to 95% by mass percentage (including but not limited to any one of 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90% or any range between any two) and Ti 5% to 55% by mass percentage (including but not limited to any one of 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50% or any range between any two).

Unless otherwise specified in the examples, conventional conditions or conditions recommended by the manufacturer are followed.
