Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of powder metallurgy titanium, and in particular relates to a method for preparing a high-performance injection-molded titanium alloy product by adding an oxygen absorber. Background Art
[0002] Titanium and titanium alloys have a series of advantages such as low density, high specific strength, strong corrosion resistance, good biocompatibility, non-magnetic, good heat resistance and low-temperature toughness, etc. They play an important role in aerospace, shipbuilding, chemical industry, medical treatment, automobile manufacturing and other fields, and are known as the "metal of the future". However, the processing performance of titanium alloys is poor, which brings great difficulties to the production of complex titanium alloy parts.
[0003] As a near-net-shape forming technology, metal powder injection molding eliminates the processing steps and has the advantages of flexible process, high material utilization, uniform organization, and fine grains. It is very suitable for the mass production of small (micro) titanium alloy parts with complex structures. However, the titanium alloy powder used for injection molding has a small particle size (usually less than 25μm), a large specific surface area, and the titanium element has a strong oxygen affinity, which easily causes the oxygen content of the powder to increase. The lower the oxygen content of the titanium alloy powder, the more expensive it is. Generally, the oxygen content in titanium alloys is required to be less than 0.2wt.%. Once the oxygen content is too high, the plasticity of the titanium alloy will be seriously deteriorated. Therefore, how to control the oxygen content in titanium alloys is the key to preparing high-performance injection molded titanium alloy products. Summary of the invention

YB6 is used as an oxygen absorber to react with the oxygen element in the titanium alloy spherical powder to reduce the oxygen content in the matrix of the injection-molded titanium alloy product, and at the same time, TiB and Y2O3 reinforcing phases are generated in situ, effectively achieving the simultaneous improvement of strength and plasticity, and obtaining a high-performance injection-molded titanium alloy product.

The binder is removed by catalytic degreasing and parameter control, and the residual binder is fully removed by thermal degreasing and parameter control. The densification sintering of the injection molded parts is achieved by controlling the sintering parameters.
[0024] 3. The yttrium element in the YB6 powder of the present invention has a very strong ability to combine with the oxygen element, and forms Y2O3 during sintering, which can greatly reduce the oxygen content in the titanium alloy matrix. At the same time, it can break the oxide film on the surface of the titanium alloy spherical powder, improve the powder sintering activity, and thus promote sintering densification. On the other hand, the boron element in YB6 can generate the TiB second phase in situ during the sintering process, promote grain refinement, strengthen the matrix, and help improve the comprehensive mechanical properties of the titanium alloy.
