Improving primary Nbss morphology and fracture toughness in hypoeutectic Nb-Si-Ti ternary alloy by ultrasonic treatment
Nb-Si ultra-high temperature alloys have been a hot topic in aviation materials, but low fracture toughness limits the application. Ultrasound treatment has a significant advantage on the grain refinement and properties improvement, successfully induced into hypoeutectic Nb-Si-Ti ternary alloys to i...

Nb-Si ultra-high temperature alloys have been a hot topic in aviation materials, but low fracture toughness limits the application. Ultrasound treatment has a significant advantage on the grain refinement and properties improvement, successfully induced into hypoeutectic Nb-Si-Ti ternary alloys to improve primary morphology and fracture toughness. In this work, Nb-16Si-22Ti alloy was treated by ultrasound of 0 s, 80 s, 120 s, 160 s and 200 s. Meanwhile, the coupled physical fields were simulated in Comsol Multiphysics to reveal the mechanism of ultrasonic action. Results show that γ-Nb5Si3 appears with ultrasound induced, and the solidification path is close to the equilibrium transition. Primary Nbss phases were coarsened and spheroidized after ultrasound treatment, and fracture toughness improved by 69.16%. Simulation results show that the strong acoustic active zone is at the height of 15 mm in the ingot, with maximum sound pressure of 36.3 MPa. The high sound pressure can break dendrites. Maximum fluid velocity reaches 0.03 m/s in the longitudinal section and 0.02 m/s in the transversal section with several circulations. Acoustic streaming and cavitation effects break dendrites and spheroidize Nbss phase, benefit to elements distribution uniformly, equilibrium transition and fracture toughness improvement. |
