摘要

To improve mechanical properties of high-Nb TiAl alloys, boron nitride (BN) reinforcement was introduced, and an optimum Nb content was determined. Ti46Al2Cr0.5BN-xNb (at.%) alloys were fabricated through vacuum arc melting. The microstructural evolution of Ti46Al2Cr0.5BN-xNb alloys was studied, including lamellar colony size, lamellar spacing, element distribution, and the characteristics of borides and nitrides. Results show that when Nb content increases from 0 to 8at.%, the lamellar colony size of Ti46Al2Cr0.5BN-xNb alloys is refined from 49 µm to 28 µm, and the lamellar spacing decreases from 463 nm to 239 nm. The increase of Nb content leads to an increase in the volume fraction of TiB2 precipitates and a concomitant decrease in the volume fraction of Ti2AlN precipitates. The compression strength at 800 °C shows an increase from 1,062 MPa to 1,658 MPa as the Nb content increases from 0 to 8at.%. The dominant fracture mechanisms of TiAl composites were revealed, including grain boundary fracture, crack deflection, interlamellar fracture, and pull-out of reinforcing phases.
