Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of welding materials technology, specifically to a corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant welding wire containing tungsten-molybdenum alloy and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Tungsten-molybdenum alloys are alloys composed of tungsten and molybdenum. The preparation methods of tungsten-molybdenum alloys are the same as those of metallic molybdenum materials and molybdenum alloys, namely powder metallurgy sintering followed by processing and smelting processing. They can be made into rods, plates, wires or other profiles. It has been known for a long time that iron and aluminum oxides can be bound to soil and sediments, and this process may determine the decomposition of tungsten-molybdenum alloys, but few studies have quantified this process.

[0003] Currently, in the manufacturing process of tungsten-molybdenum alloy corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant slag-based welding wires, due to the high melting point characteristics of the alloy components and the complexity of the slag composition, the traditional preparation process has the following defects: During the melting stage, the density difference of tungsten and molybdenum elements causes component segregation in the molten pool, resulting in fluctuations in the cross-sectional composition of the alloy billet; When the slag coating layer is mechanically mixed, the high-hardness components such as calcium fluoride and rare earth additives cause gradient stratification due to differences in particle size and density, resulting in local component deviations in the coating layer. Especially during hot working, the mismatch of the thermal expansion coefficients between the core alloy and the slag layer induces interfacial microcracks, ultimately leading to uneven slag coverage and reduced alloy element transfer efficiency during use. These defects cause the traditional welding wire to have large fluctuations in pitting corrosion resistance in high-temperature corrosive environments and a high dispersion coefficient in the service life of the wear-resistant layer, which seriously restricts its reliability under harsh working conditions such as nuclear power and marine engineering.

[0004] Therefore, a corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant welding wire containing tungsten-molybdenum alloy and its preparation method are proposed to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0048] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0049] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant welding wire containing tungsten-molybdenum alloy and its preparation method, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0050] 1. In this invention, when preparing tungsten-molybdenum alloy corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant slag-based welding wire, the synergistic ratio between core alloying elements and the coupling mechanism of slag layer components are designed to ensure the uniform dispersion of high-density elements during the smelting process. At the same time, the interaction between slag coating layer components is optimized, so that the welding wire has both phase stability under high temperature environment and slag self-regulation function. This solves the problem of corrosion resistance fluctuation caused by element segregation in traditional processes and improves the service reliability of welding wire under extreme working conditions.

[0051] 2. In this invention, in the process of controlling the composite interface of the welding wire, gradient hot isostatic pressing technology is used to achieve physical metallurgical bonding between the core and the slag layer, which overcomes the risk of interface defects caused by the difference in thermal expansion of materials, so that the welding wire maintains a stable interface bonding strength during the hot and cold cycle, avoids uneven slag coverage during the deposition process, and ensures efficient transition of alloying elements and controllability of the metallurgical reaction of the molten pool.

[0052] 3. In this invention, by establishing a multi-level post-processing chain, and coordinating cold working deformation strengthening, solid solution strengthening and surface ceramic modification technologies, a gradient functional protective layer is formed on the surface of the welding wire. This enables the welding wire to autonomously repair surface micro-damage under wear-corrosion interaction conditions, while strengthening the synergistic wear resistance mechanism of the core components.

[0169] The welding wire consists of a core alloy and an outer slag layer;

[0185] The welding wires prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-4 were subjected to performance tests. The test items and test methods are as follows:

[0186] Corrosion resistance test: Immerse in 5wt% NaCl solution for 30 days and measure the weight loss per unit area due to corrosion.

[0187] High-temperature wear resistance test: The volumetric wear rate was calculated using a reciprocating friction and wear tester at 600℃ with a load of 50N and a sliding speed of 0.2m / s.

[0190] The test data for the welding wires prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-4 are recorded in the table below:

[0191]

[0192] Comparison and analysis of the data in the table show that the tungsten-molybdenum alloy welding wires prepared using the processes of Examples 1-3 exhibit significantly superior performance compared to Comparative Examples 1-4. This indicates that in preparing tungsten-molybdenum alloy corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant slag-based welding wires, by designing the synergistic ratio between core alloying elements and the coupling mechanism of slag layer components, the uniform dispersion of high-density elements during the smelting process is ensured. Simultaneously, the interaction of slag coating components is optimized, enabling the welding wire to possess both phase stability under high-temperature environments and slag self-regulation capabilities. This solves the corrosion resistance fluctuation problem caused by element segregation in traditional processes, improving the service reliability of the welding wire under extreme conditions. In the composite interface control stage, gradient hot isostatic pressing technology is used to achieve physical metallurgical bonding between the core and the slag layer, overcoming the challenges caused by differences in material thermal expansion. The risk of interface defects is mitigated, ensuring that the welding wire maintains stable interfacial bonding strength during thermal cycling, avoiding uneven slag coverage during deposition, and guaranteeing efficient transition of alloying elements and controllable metallurgical reaction in the molten pool. By establishing a multi-level post-processing chain, and coordinating cold working deformation strengthening, solid solution strengthening, and surface ceramic modification technologies, a gradient functional protective layer is formed on the surface of the welding wire. This allows the welding wire to autonomously repair surface micro-damage under wear-corrosion interaction conditions, while strengthening the synergistic wear resistance mechanism of the core components. This overcomes the performance bottleneck of single protection methods and improves the service life and environmental adaptability of the welded parts.

[0193] By comparing and analyzing the relevant data in the table, it can be seen that the tungsten-molybdenum alloy corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant slag-resistant welding wire prepared by the process of this invention not only has excellent corrosion resistance, high-temperature wear resistance, and stable mechanical properties, but also demonstrates that the tungsten-molybdenum alloy corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant slag-resistant welding wire and its preparation method provided by this invention have a broader market prospect and are more suitable for promotion.
