低占空比下脉冲电流频率对Ti-6Al-4V焊缝组织性能的影响

Effect of pulse frequency on microstructure and properties of Ti-6Al-4V joints under condition of low duty cycle

  • 摘要: 采用超高频脉冲GTAW(ultra high frequency pulse gas tungsten arc welding,UHFP-GTAW)工艺在占空比20%的条件下完成了Ti-6Al-4V钛合金组织性能试验,以平均晶粒尺寸表征晶粒细化程度,研究了20%占空比条件下,脉冲频率对晶粒细化、组织特征及接头拉伸性能的影响规律.结果表明,与常规GTAW(conventional gas tungsten arc welding,C-GTAW)相比,UHFP-GTAW焊缝区以网篮状组织为主,热影响区α'相以短针状为主呈现;焊缝区平均晶粒尺寸最大减小了32%,晶粒显著细化;断后伸长率和断面收缩率最大分别提高了140%和275%,接头塑性明显改善.与50%占空比下平均晶粒尺寸减小率16.7%相比,晶粒得到进一步细化,同时平均断后伸长率及断面收缩率分别提高了22%,33%.

     

    Abstract: The microstructure and mechanical properties of Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloys joints was studied, which obtained by ultra high frequency pulse gas tungsten arc welding(UHFPGTAW) process on the condition with 20% duty cycle. The degree of grain refinement was characterized by the average grain size in fusion zone(FZ). The characteristic of UHFP-GTAW joints microstructure was investigated, and the effect of pulsed current frequency on grain refinement and mechanical properties was also analyzed under condition of low duty cycle. The results showd that in contrast with conventional GTAW(C-GTAW) process, the microstructure of the FZ remained mainly basketweave, and most of α' phase of the HAZ presented as shortacicular for UHFP-GTAW process. The grains were refined significantly and the average grain size in FZ was decreased by 32% at most. Elongation and reduction of area were increased by 140% and 275%, respectively. Morerover, the ductility of the joints was improved strikingly. In comparision with the 16.7% decline of average grain size in FZ on 50% duty cycle, grains were refined further, and elongation and reduction of area were respectively enhanced by 22% and 33% as the duty cycle was reduced to 20%.
