Microstructural homogeneity and high-temperature tensile uniformity of TC4 alloy disk forgings
-
摘要: 采用模锻成形与固溶时效处理制备了TC4钛合金盘锻件,系统研究了盘锻件不同位置的显微组织特征以及对应的高温拉伸性能。结果表明,盘件沿径向存在一定的高温强度差异:其中轮缘区域强度最高,距轮心1/2R区域(R为半径)最低,而不同位置的塑性差异较小。显微组织与断口形貌分析表明,显微组织和织构差异是造成高温强度存在差异的主要原因。轮缘与轮心区域具有细小、均匀分布的板条状α相,能有效缩短位错运动的平均自由程,从而在提高强度的同时保持良好的塑性。然而,1/2R区域的α相主要呈现出粗大的集束状,导致强度与塑性下降。Abstract: A TC4 titanium alloy disk was fabricated via die forging followed by solution and aging heat treatment. The microstructure and corresponding high temperature tensile properties were systematically investigated across three representative regions. The results reveal significant radial non-uniformity in high temperature tensile properties, the rim region exhibits the highest strength, the 1/2R region appears the lowest, while ductility shows little difference among the three regions. Microstructure, texture and fracture surface analyses indicate that the non-uniformity in high temperature tensile properties originates from variations in the morphology and texture of α phase. The rim and hub regions contain fine secondary α phase with basket-weave morphology, which effectively suppresses dislocation motion and void coalescence, thereby enhancing strength without compromising ductility. In contrast, the 1/2R region contains coarser secondary α phase with a colony-like morphology, promoting localized void growth and early fracture. In addition, due to the high Schmidt factor of the basal slip of the α phase in the 1/2R region, the tensile strength is reduced.
