摘要: 以平均粒径约80 μm的纯Nb和纯Si粉末为原料,采用500 W、750 W、1 000 W和1 500 W功率的激光束为热源,通过双通道同轴送粉激光熔化沉积(Laser melting deposition,LMD)技术制备了四种Nb-16Si二元合金。利用扫描电子显微镜(Scanning electron microscope,SEM)、X射线能量色散谱仪(Energy dispersive spectrometer,EDS)以及X射线衍射仪(X-ray diffraction,XRD)等手段分析了沉积态合金的宏微观组织演变与维氏硬度。结果表明,随LMD激光功率由500 W增至1 500 W,沉积试样表面形貌逐渐趋于光滑,相对密度由91.1%增至98.5%。激光功率对沉积态Nb-16Si合金相组成无明显影响,在高能激光束的作用下,纯Nb粉末与纯Si粉末发生原位反应,直接合成了室温亚稳态的Nb3Si相和NbSS(Niobium solid solution,NbSS)相。激光功率强烈影响Nb-16Si合金的显微组织形貌,随激光功率的增加,合金中先共晶NbSS相由枝晶状逐渐转变为细小等轴状,其平均尺寸由约50 μm细化至1 μm左右,合金中NbSS+Nb3Si共晶组织形态由细小的层片状共晶,逐渐转变为纳米级的NbSS相弥散分布在Nb3Si基体上的不规则共晶。随激光功率增加,合金的维氏硬度由605 HV逐渐增加至898 HV。

Abstract: The high purity Nb powder and Si powder with the average particle size of 80 μm are used as raw powder and four kinds of Nb-16Si binary alloys are fabricated by laser melting deposition of double coaxial powder feeder method with 500 W, 750 W, 1000 W and 1 500 W laser beam as the energy resource. The macro- and micro-structure evolution and Vickers hardness of these alloys are investigated with scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and X-ray diffraction spectrometer (XRD), etc. The results show that with the laser power increasing from 500 W to 1 500 W, the surface morphology of the as-deposited alloys gradually becomes smooth, and the relative density increases from 91.1% to 98.5%. The laser power of LMD has no obvious effect on the phase constitution of Nb-16Si alloys, and the metastable Nb3Si and NbSS(Niobium solid solution, NbSS) phases are synthesized directly by the in-situ reaction between pure Nb powder and pure Si powder under the laser beam heating condition. With the increase of laser power, the morphology of pro-eutectic NbSS phase changes from dendrite to fine equiaxed gradually, and its average size is also refined from about 50 μm to 1 μm approximately. The microstructure of NbSS+Nb3Si eutectic in the as-deposited alloys changes from fine lamellar eutectic to irregular eutectic of nanometer NbSS distributing on Nb3Si matrix. The Vicker's hardness of as-deposited Nb-16Si alloys increases from 605 HV to 898 HV with the increase of laser power.
