Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of metal material surface engineering and heat treatment, and particularly relates to a surface treatment method for improving the corrosion resistance of eutectic high-entropy alloy, and also relates to eutectic high-entropy alloy subjected to surface strengthening treatment. BACKGROUND

[0002] The eutectic high-entropy alloy balances the performance of single-phase high-entropy alloy by means of composite material, and the materials with different excellent performances are compounded to improve the performance defects of single material. AlCoCrFeNi 2.1 The alloy as a typical representative of eutectic high-entropy alloy with dual-phase structure of FCC phase and BCC phase has a series of excellent performances such as high strength and plasticity at room temperature, good radiation resistance, high wear resistance, high temperature corrosion resistance and thermal stability, and has very broad application potential. The main elements of the FCC phase are Fe, Co and Cr, the main components of the BCC phase are Ni and Al, the dual-phase has significant composition and structure difference, and there is also difference in chemical potential, which causes selective corrosion of phase due to micro-electric couple in the application process, and seriously reduces the service life of the material.

[0003] The main reason for selective corrosion is that the Cr element of the FCC phase forms a dense corrosion-resistant passivation layer and has a relatively high corrosion potential, while the Ni and Al oxides of the BCC phase are easily corroded by Cl - and have a lower potential, and in the liquid phase environment, the FCC phase acts as a cathode and the BCC phase acts as an anode and is preferentially corroded. It can be seen that reducing the potential difference between the phases and the dense passivation film can effectively alleviate the selective corrosion, and the inter-element homogenization can effectively solve the above two problems. Both aging treatment and surface remelting process can make the inter-element diffuse with each other, but in terms of corrosion resistance, the aging treatment has limited improvement. Laser surface remelting can generate a surface passivation layer, and the corrosion resistance is obviously improved, but there are defects such as surface overheating, residual stress, pores, inclusions and cracks, and the principle is to improve the surface corrosion resistance of the material by surface grain refinement.

[0049] Example 3

[0050] The surface treatment method for improving the corrosion resistance of eutectic high-entropy alloy is as follows: the as-cast AlCoCrFeNi 2.1 The eutectic high-entropy alloy substrate is pretreated, pretreated, ultrasonic impacted for n passes, and post-treated.

[0051] (1) The as-cast AlCoCrFeNi 2.1 The as-cast eutectic high-entropy alloy is cut into a sample with a size of 50 mm x 50 mm x 5 mm, and then pretreated. The pretreatment is specifically as follows: the as-cast eutectic high-entropy alloy is polished, placed in a degreasing agent, heated at 70 ℃ for 15 min for degreasing, washed with distilled water, and finally washed with anhydrous ethanol, dried and treated.

[0052] The as-cast eutectic high-entropy alloy is prepared by vacuum arc melting technology and is remelted for 6 times.

[0053] The degreasing agent is alkaline with a pH of 9. The solvent in the degreasing agent is 100 mL of deionized water. The solutes in the degreasing agent and the corresponding molar concentrations are as follows: sodium hydroxide 0.25 mol / L, sodium phosphate 0.1 mol / L, and sodium silicate 0.05 mol / L.

[0055] (3) The surface of the alloy pretreated in step (2) is continuously impacted for 20 passes by ultrasonic impact. The specific process of continuously impacting for 20 passes is as follows: the punch moves on the surface of the pretreated alloy in an S-shaped point-by-point manner, as shown in Figure 1 The relative movement speed of the sample surface and the punch in the X direction is 5 mm / s. When the punch moves to a predetermined distance in the X direction (which can be determined according to the size of the sample), it returns. Each time it returns, it moves 1 mm in the Y direction. One impact stroke is counted as one pass, and this process is repeated for 20 passes. The impact frequency of the ultrasonic equipment used is 5 kHz, the output power is 1.5 kW, the ultrasonic impact punch is hemispherical with a ball diameter of 5 mm, and the material of the ultrasonic impact punch is tungsten carbide hard alloy.

[0056] (4) After the alloy in step (3) is subjected to ultrasonic impact, the alloy is subjected to post-treatment, i.e., aging treatment, specifically: the alloy after ultrasonic impact is placed in a box furnace with a temperature of 600°C, and is kept for 24h, and is cooled in the furnace to obtain the eutectic high-entropy alloy subjected to surface strengthening treatment, which is named AlCoCrFeNi 2.1 -S3.

[0057] The AlCoCrFeNi 2.1 -S3 obtained based on the treatment in Example 3 has an X-ray diffraction pattern and a cross-sectional morphology as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 respectively. The AlCoCrFeNi 2.1 -S3 is subjected to electrochemical test, and the corrosion resistance of the AlCoCrFeNi 2.1 -S3 is evaluated from two aspects: potentiodynamic polarization curve test and electrochemical impedance spectrum test. According to the test results, the corrosion resistance of the AlCoCrFeNi 2.1 -S3 high-entropy alloy subjected to surface ultrasonic strengthening treatment is evaluated.

[0058] Ultrasonic impact treatment is an effective method for surface grain refinement. A passivation layer is generated on the surface without changing the material composition, so as to improve the corrosion resistance of the material, and defects caused by laser surface remelting are avoided. Solid solution treatment before ultrasonic impact can improve the tensile strength and yield strength of the metal in advance; can also make the solute elements in the material uniformly distributed, reduce the strengthening effect of the grain boundary, and thus improve the plasticity and toughness of the material, and can also avoid the brittle peeling of the surface strengthening layer of the material due to serious work hardening caused by large plastic deformation during the subsequent continuous ultrasonic impact process. Aging strengthening after ultrasonic impact treatment can precipitate fine Cr-rich particle phases from the supersaturated solid solution, form a passivation film layer with good corrosion resistance, and can partially eliminate the dislocations and residual stress generated by ultrasonic impact treatment while maintaining the fine-grained structure of the surface strengthening layer, thereby improving the corrosion resistance of the sample surface.

[0059] The surface treatment method of the present embodiment uses ultrasonic impact combined with solid solution treatment and aging treatment to refine the grain size of the alloy surface, control the element distribution, and change the composition of the surface passivation layer, thereby significantly improving the corrosion resistance.

As can be seen from the figure, both alloys are mainly composed of light gray FCC and dark gray BCC phases, forming lamellar and cellular eutectic structures. The eutectic structure of the cast alloy is coarser, with larger interlamellar spacing. Figure 4 As can be seen, severe plastic deformation occurred in region I, with a thickness of approximately 15 μm, and the eutectic structure was significantly refined. In region II, the eutectic structure underwent significant distortion, serving as a deformation buffer layer with a thickness of approximately 30 μm. The refined grains have the characteristics of large specific surface area and high surface activity, which can improve the passivation ability of the material and enhance its corrosion resistance.
