The invention discloses Al-Si-Ti
system spherical composite
powder for additive manufacturing and a preparation method and application of the Al-Si-Ti
system spherical composite
powder, and belongs to the technical field of
metal-based composite materials for additive manufacturing. The composite
powder is prepared from the following
raw material components in percentage by
mass: 81.8 to 94.2 weight percent of aluminum, 5.3 to 15.83 weight percent of
silicon, 0.5 to 6.25 weight percent of
titanium, 0.8 to 10 weight percent of Ti5Si3 generated by in-situ reaction in the composite powder, and 5 to 15 weight percent of residual Si. The prepared composite powder is high in
sphericity degree and low in
impurity content, in-situ synthesized Ti5Si3 reinforced phase particles are evenly distributed in an
alloy matrix in a nanoscale mode, the content is controllable, and eutectic Si is small in size. The invention further discloses a preparation method of the composite powder, through preparation of the Al-Si-Ti
system spherical composite powder containing fine Ti5Si3 reinforced phase particles, the problems that in a traditional powder mixing process, powder mixing is not uniform, Ti reaction is incomplete, and the
sphericity degree of the powder is reduced are effectively solved; and ideal
raw material powder is provided for additive manufacturing of the high-performance Al-Si-Ti
composite material.
