摘要

The wire-powder synergistic arc additive manufacturing method combines the advantages of both wire-based and powder-based additive manufacturing while maintaining low costs. This work investigates the effects of copper content on the microstructure and properties of Ti-xCu alloys fabricated. The research examines the microstructural composition of Ti-xCu alloys (x = 4, 7.3, and 10 wt.%) and the precipitation mechanisms of Ti2Cu during solidification. Research has shown that the microstructure of Ti-xCu alloys is composed of a basket-weave Widmanstätten structure. With the increase in Cu content, the relative content of original β grains, lamellar α phase, lamellar α phase thickness, and α bundle size in the tissue gradually decreases, while the interlayer α spacing gradually increases. Moreover, the morphology of the Ti2Cu phase has changed significantly. The grain refinement and increased precipitation of hard Ti2Cu phase raised the hardness value by 22% (from 294 HV in Ti-4Cu alloy to 358 HV in Ti-10Cu alloy). Enhanced solid solution of Cu atoms in the α-Ti matrix and promoted precipitation of Ti2Cu as an intermetallic compound. The synergistic effects of these mechanisms improve the yield strength and ultimate tensile strength, while reduce the elongation value. The corrosion resistance demonstrates an initial increase followed by a decrease, primarily governed by Ti2Cu morphology, where granular Ti2Cu phases exhibit superior corrosion resistance.
