Transformation Super plasticity of Titanium Alloy
Technology Research Connection
The outstanding characteristic of titanium is its high specific strength and
excellent corrosion resistance, while at the same time has good heat resistance
and low temperature performance, and practical application of a wide range.
As long as the materials properly, not only can greatly increase the
effectiveness of equipment, but also can bring significant economic benefits.
In regard to corrosion resistance, titanium alloys in oxidizing and neutral
media is extremely stable, the corrosion rate in sea water is far below the
stainless steel, compared with platinum, it is suitable for the petroleum,
chemical, electric power, metallurgy, agricultural chemicals, paper-making,
shipbuilding, food and medical applications and health departments.
Due to the characteristics of titanium alloy with the above, it is
particularly suitable for aircraft and spacecraft materials design is required.
Aviation Industry Development and Application of titanium alloys is the first
sector. The beginning of the fifties, the United States succeeded in the use of a
titanium aircraft, although at the time of each aircraft being used for only 1%
the weight of the structure of titanium, but titanium has opened up applications
in the aviation industry in the broad road. Now, the titanium in the world has
been widely used, small screws, nuts, such as connectors, up to the fuselage
frame, every other frame, such as structural parts, and even more than 6 meters
long, weighing two tons of the main support beam of the landing gear. For
high-speed fighters, as a result of high-speed and high maneuverability, the
aircraft structure as far as possible the requirements of light, heat capacity at
the same time; practice has proved that titanium is the most appropriate
material.
Titanium is the world's recognized difficult-to-machine materials, but the
use of super plastic forming / diffusion bonding process (SPF / DB) can be
produced by welding, riveting processes difficult to produce complex titanium
aircraft parts and components to enable integration, light weight, and lower the
cost.
Use of materials under thermal cycle repeated phase-change role in the
effects of pressure welding material so that the contact took place in super
plastic flow, so that the surface in close contact and close to the inter-atomic
forces to achieve the scope of , the realization of the material on both sides of
the interface connected to a reliable welding method known as phase-change
Super plastic diffusion bonding (Transformation Super plastic Diffusion
Bonding). Super plastic conditions, the material under stress in the smaller
plastic deformation has a very good ability to flow the process of super plastic
materials in a highly activated state of atoms, these materials will help to
remove the surface oxide film to improve the combination of the close
connections and speed up the atomic diffusion, resulting in a short period of
time to achieve a reliable connection. Be welded as long as the phase-change
material, the use of such methods can be welded. Repeated phase-change
material is produced by thermal cycling to achieve, and therefore thermal
cycling method has become the core of this welding process links.
Phase transformation super plastic diffusion bonding is a solid-phase
welding method, a general proliferation of welding and the characteristics of
welding deformation, deformation mechanisms and the proliferation of
mechanisms in the formation of welded joints are equally important role in the
process. Phase transformation super plastic diffusion bonding joints or less
after the formation of three phases.
First, physical contact with the formation of phases:
To the formation of the actual physical contact, the material must be
removed on the surface oxide film and the adsorbed layer, but in the welding
process and welding can completely clear the oxide film is of utmost
importance. Vacuum welding, the adsorbed layer and the oxide film under high
temperature description, distillation, evaporation, chemical reaction and
dissolution methods can be eliminated.
In the process of diffusion bonding, only the material near the surface of
each other, reaching between atoms can be caused by physical distance, will it
be possible to form a welded joint quality. In general, the solder materials
were processed through sophisticated, from the micro-view of its surface is
still uneven. Therefore, in the beginning stages of diffusion welding, the
welding material contact surfaces can only form of local contacts, while the
remainder of the full contact is required by the interface of the plastic
deformation of solder material, there is no part of the full contact holes are
formed, the holes on the formation of adverse effect on joint reliability.
Phase change materials in the super plastic deformation resistance under
conditions of low stress in the low to the high occurrence of plastic
deformation, welding interface of the holes can exist in the role of high-plastic
archeology to be filled rapidly. Phase-change material, the grains continue to
migration and conversion, the surface oxide film to break down quickly broken.
The use of phase-change method of super plastic diffusion bonding can be
smaller under the pressure of the rapid realization of fully welded joint
physical contact.
Second, chemical interaction of stages:
The formation of the actual contact and the surface is not enough to have
a strong connection between atoms. In order to obtain the combination of
atoms between the solid, it is necessary to activate the surface atoms.
Activation of the surface atoms will lead to the original bond (for example, the
chemical adsorption and oxygen level) of the tear, and then will it be possible
to make the electronic interactions between atoms. Under the metal in the
external force generated by shear stress and normal stress can cause the metal
surface of the plastic deformation and flow, plastic deformation and flow of
cause defects in the crystal structure (dislocations and hole) to move to the
surface at this time, defect migration the release of atomic energy will activate
