-
摘要: 利用熔模精密铸造技术制备了ZTA15钛合金试棒。采用金相法观察和测定表面污染层厚度,制定酸洗量。酸洗前后,使用2点直径测量法和金相法确定污染层去除情况;酸洗后进行真空退火,从3种状态试棒表面取样进行化学成分试验,检测氢、氧含量的变化情况,研究了酸洗对ZTA15钛合金表面污染层及化学成分的影响。结果表明,ZTA15钛合金表面污染层厚度为0.1 ~0.2 mm,当酸洗液中氢氟酸、硝酸和热水按照30%∶30%∶40%的质量比配制、温度40~60 ℃、酸洗时间60 min以内、酸洗量0.25 mm±0.05 mm时,可以彻底去除硬度高、塑性低的α污染层,避免在后续变形或受力时导致脆化或产生裂纹,提高其使用性能。ZTA15钛合金酸洗后表面有轻微的吸氢,氧含量无明显变化,经真空退火后又有析氢,表面氢含量始终满足<0.01%的要求,不会产生氢脆等对成分性能不利的情况。Abstract: The ZTA15 titanium alloy test bars were prepared by investment casting technology. The thickness of the surface contamination layer was observed and measured by metallography, and then the pickling amount was determined. Before and after pickling, the removal of the contaminated layer was determined by the two-point diameter measurement and metallographic method. After pickling treatment, vacuum annealing was also carried out. The chemical composition was tested from the surface of test bars in three states to detect the change of hydrogen and oxygen content. The effect of acid pickling on the surface contamination layer and chemical composition of ZTA15 titanium alloy was studied. The results show that the thickness of the contaminated layer on the surface of ZTA15 titanium alloy is 0.1~0.2 mm. When hydrofluoric acid, nitric acid and hot water in the pickling solution are prepared according to the mass ratio of 30%: 30%: 40%, the temperature is 40~60 ℃, the pickling time is within 60 min, and the pickling amount is (0.25±0.05 )mm, the α contaminated layer with high hardness and low plasticity can be completely removed to avoid embrittlement or crack during subsequent deformation or stress, and improve its service performance. After pickling, the surface of ZTA15 titanium alloy has slight hydrogen absorption, no obvious change in oxygen content. Hydrogen evolution occurs after vacuum annealing, but the hydrogen content on the surface always meets the requirement of <0.01%. Hydrogen embrittlement and other adverse conditions on the composition performance are not to be generated.
