摘要
采用机械合金化的方法制备了Ti_(44)Ni_(47)Nb_9形状记忆合金粉末,采用X射线衍射(XRD)、扫描电镜(SEM)分析和能量色散光谱(EDS)等分析了球磨工艺参数对粉末非晶度和颗粒尺寸的影响,得出了最佳的球磨工艺参数。分析了球磨转速、球料比以及球磨时间等参数对机械合金化过程的影响规律。结果表明:合金粉末在球磨60 h时已出现大部分非晶相,100 h时已接近完全非晶化。机械合金化制备的Ti_(44)Ni_(47)Nb_9合金粉末尺寸随球磨时间的增加先迅速减小后在60 h左右趋于稳定,在球磨速率不变的条件下,随着球磨时间增长,粉末的平均粒径大幅度减小,且由棱角分明的不规则体逐渐变化为球形体,在球磨初期(10~30 h)存在颗粒团聚的现象,随球磨时间延长(30 h后)该现象逐渐消失。从粉末颗粒尺寸、分布状况、圆滑程度等方面分析考虑:在球磨时间为100 h的条件下,当球磨转速为200 r/min、球料比为10∶1时机械合金化效果最佳。
Ti_(44)Ni_(47)Nb_9 shape memory alloy powders were prepared by mechanical alloying, and the effects of milling parameters on amorphous degree and particle size of the powder were analyzed by means of X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy(EDS) analysis. The optimum milling parameters were obtained. The effects of milling speed, ball-to-batch ratio and milling time on mechanical alloying process were analyzed. The results show that most of the amorphous phases have appeared in the alloy powder after milling for 60 h and are close to the complete amorphous phase at 100 h. The powder size of Ti_(44)Ni_(47)Nb_9 alloy prepared by mechanical alloying first decreases rapidly with the increase of milling time and then tends to stabilize at about 60 h. Under the condition of constant milling rate, the average particle size of the powder decreases greatly with the increase of milling time. At the beginning of milling(10-30 h), the phenomenon of particle agglomeration is observed, which is gradually changed from angular irregular body to ball shape, and the phenomenon disappeares with the prolongation of milling time(more than 30 h). From the aspects of particle size, distribution, smoothness and so on, it is considered that the mechanical alloying effect is the best when the milling time is 100 h with milling speed of 200 r/min and the ratio of ball-to-batch of 10∶1.
