In-situ reaction of Ti-Si-C composite powder and formation mechanism of laser deposited Ti6Al4V/ (TiC+Ti3SiC2) system functionally graded material
Materials & Design(2019)
Abstract
Ti-Si-C composite powder was designed as raw material for laser deposition, and fabricated into quasi-spherical powder particles. On this basis, Ti6Al4V/(TiC+Ti3SiC2) system functionally graded material (FGM) was designed and fabricated using pure Ti powder and the fabricated Ti-Si-C composite powder. The microstructures of the gradient layers were analyzed by a scanning electron microscope (SEM) equipped with an X-ray energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS). An X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectrometer and a transmission electron microscope (TEM) were used for determination of the reaction products in the gradient layers. In-situ chemical reactions took place between elements Ti, Si and C in the deposited layers, and the reaction products included TiC and Ti3SiC2 ceramics as well as Ti5Si3 compound. Finally, Ti6Al4V/(TiC+Ti3SiC2) system FGM with a planar size of 25 mm × 50 mm was fabricated and the total thickness of all the graded layers was 2.2 mm. The average three-point bending strength of the overall Ti6Al4V/(TiC+Ti3SiC2) system FGM was high up to 995 MPa at room temperature, and the outermost layer exhibited the microhardness of 647.5 HV.
