Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of alloy powder preparation, and particularly relates to a high-fluidity titanium alloy powder and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Titanium and titanium alloys are materials very suitable for aviation and aerospace because their specific gravity is only about 4.5, which is almost 1 / 2 compared to the common steel alloys with a specific gravity of over 7.8. Moreover, titanium and titanium alloys have high strength, and their strength-to-weight ratio far exceeds that of light aluminum and aluminum alloys, especially in terms of temperature resistance and acid and alkali resistance. However, low-oxygen titanium powder needs to be strictly controlled in various environments such as preparation and storage, so that the low-oxygen titanium powder is always in an inert gas or vacuum atmosphere to avoid powder passivation, which greatly increases the costs in aspects such as the use and storage of low-oxygen titanium powder. At the same time, the powder produced by this method has a large surface activity. After being exposed to air, it will be quickly passivated, forming a dense passivation film and adsorbing a large amount of gas impurities, deteriorating the powder properties and the fluidity of spherical powder.

[0003] At the same time, titanium alloy is an alloy with very high activity. To obtain high-purity titanium alloy powder with low impurity content, it is necessary to ensure that the environment is always under high-purity inert gas protection or high-vacuum environment during the preparation process to avoid the pollution of titanium alloy. The titanium alloy powder produced by gas atomization has a large surface activity. Especially when the particle size of the prepared powder is below 100 microns, the powder shows a fluffy and agglomerated characteristic, with very poor fluidity, causing great difficulties for the subsequent screening of the powder. On the other hand, fine titanium alloy powder has a very high activity. When it quickly contacts air, its surface is rapidly oxidized and a large amount of heat is released, posing a great potential safety hazard.

[0004] Therefore, in the preparation process of titanium alloy powder, it is particularly important to reduce the surface tension after surface passivation treatment of titanium alloy powder while having few surface impurities, high stability and high fluidity without affecting the chemical composition of the titanium alloy powder itself.

[0005] Therefore, according to the above related technologies, it is urgent to develop a high-fluidity titanium alloy powder and a preparation method thereof. Summary of the Invention

[0080] Performance test:

[0081] Determination of stability:

[0082] Referring to the determination standard of GB / T1480 - 2012 "Determination of Particle Size of Metal Powders by Dry Sieving Method", 100 g of high - fluidity titanium alloy powder was sieved step by step with sieves of different pore sizes. After sieving, the powder on each sieve surface and the chassis was weighed (weighing accurate to 0.1 g). Then, the proportion of titanium alloy powder with a particle size between 21 - 30 μm was calculated. According to this method, the proportion (%) of high - fluidity titanium alloy powder with a particle size between 21 - 30 μm in the high - fluidity titanium alloy powder just prepared in Examples 1 - 5 and Comparative Examples 1 - 10 and the titanium alloy powder stored in a non - airtight environment for 100 days after preparation was determined. Then, the stability (%) of the high - fluidity titanium alloy powder was calculated according to the following formula;

[0083] The stability calculation formula is: Stability (%) = W 0 -W 1

[0084] where, W 0 is the proportion (%) of high - fluidity titanium alloy powder with a particle size between 21 - 30 μm in the high - fluidity titanium alloy powder just prepared; W 1 is the proportion (%) of high - fluidity titanium alloy powder with a particle size between 21 - 30 μm in the high - fluidity titanium alloy powder stored in a non - airtight environment for 100 days after preparation;

[0085] Determination of fluidity:

[0086] Referring to the determination standard of GB / T1482 - 2022 "Determination of Fluidity of Metal Powders - Standard Funnel Method (Hall Flowmeter)", the fluidity (s·50 g -1 ) of 50 g of high - fluidity titanium alloy powder just prepared in Examples 1 - 5 and Comparative Examples 1 - 10 and 50 g of high - fluidity titanium alloy powder stored in a non - airtight environment for 100 days after preparation was determined with a Hall flowmeter; The determination results are shown in Table 1;

[0087] Determination of oxygen content:

[0088] Referring to the test standard of GB / T5158.4 - 2001 "Determination of Total Oxygen Content in Metal Powders - Reduction - Extraction Method", the oxygen content (ppm) of 50 g of high - fluidity titanium alloy powder just prepared in Examples 1 - 5 and Comparative Examples 1 - 10 and 50 g of high - fluidity titanium alloy powder stored in a non - airtight environment for 100 days after preparation was determined; The determination results are shown in Table 1;

[0095] Data analysis:

[0096] As can be seen from Table 1, the high-flowability titanium alloy powders prepared in the present invention have better stability, fluidity, oxygen content stability, apparent density (sphericity), and fracture toughness of the prepared specimens;

[0097] This may be because the addition of the flow aid in the present invention can generate a stable nanoscale passivation film on the surface of the titanium alloy powder, thereby improving the fluidity of the titanium alloy powder, and at the same time reducing the possibility of the titanium alloy powder adsorbing interstitial elements such as oxygen and nitrogen in the environment, making the prepared high-flowability titanium alloy powder have higher purity; the synergist can react with the passivation film when the high-flowability titanium alloy powder is heat-treated, improving the plasticity of the high-flowability titanium alloy powder and the fracture toughness of the prepared device. Therefore, compared with the prior art, the titanium alloy powder prepared in the present invention has better stability, fluidity, oxygen content stability, and sphericity while not affecting the plastic properties such as the fracture toughness of the prepared specimens. The present invention also adjusts the particle size of the titanium alloy powder, the particle size of the flow aid, and the particle size of the synergist, so that the particle size of the prepared high-flowability titanium alloy powder is kept between 21 - 30 μm, thereby further improving the forming ability of the high-flowability titanium alloy powder and the mechanical properties of the prepared specimens.
