摘要:
TA15 titanium alloy has been widely used in the aerospace industry due to its moderate high-temperature performance. In this research, TA15 samples with excellent mechanical properties were successfully fabricated by laser powder bed fusion (LPBF). Results show that the microstructure of TA15 sample is composed of acicular alpha ' martensites within the columnar prior beta grain. During manufacturing process of LPBF, the non-equilibrium heating and cooling of the thermal cycles experiencing different peak temperatures result in the hierarchical structure of martensite. After heat treatment at 750 degrees C, 840 degrees C, 900 degrees C, and 940 degrees C for two hours, the fine martensitic structure has transformed into a mixture of alpha and beta. With the increase of temperature, the volume fraction of beta increases from 10.3% to 49.9%, the width of primary alpha increases from 0.72 +/- 0.16 & micro;m to 2.96 +/- 0.17 & micro;m because of the simultaneous fragmentation of the primary alpha. So the ultimate and yield strengths decrease while the elongation increases. After heat treatment at 940 degrees C, the specimen shows the best comprehensive mechanical properties, the elongation increases to 11.5%, the tensile strength is 1061 MPa, and the yield strength is 961 MPa. The fracture surface shows the typically ductile fracture character. (c) 2021 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
