Antiphase boundary-like structure in α′′ martensite of TC21 titanium alloy

TC21钛合金α′′马氏体中的反相畴界状结构(英文)

The morphology and formation mechanism of the substructure of martensite in TC21 alloy was investigated by XRD and TEM. The results showed that the martensitic transformation from β to α＂ occurs upon quenching after solution treatment between 960-1000 ℃. The antiphase boundary （APB）-like structure was observed clearly in the α＂ martensite plates. The APB-like contrasts exist along the （001） and （020） planes of α＂ martensite. This APB-like structure of α＂ martensite was identified as a kind of stacking fault with an APB-like morphology induced by martensitic transformation and not by order/disorder transition. During martensitic transformation, martensitic domains nucleate and grow, eventually encounter each other, resulting in the formation of the APBdike contrast.

采用X射线衍射(XRD)和透射电子显微镜(TEM),研究TC21钛合金马氏体中亚结构的形貌和形成机理。结果显示,在960～1000°C温度范围内,TC21合金进行固溶淬火处理后会发生β→α′′马氏体相变。在板条状α′′马氏体内部发现有反相畴界状结构,并且该结构平行于α′′马氏体的(001)和(020)面。该结构被确定为马氏体相变过程中诱导产生的一种堆垛层错,它具有反相畴界的形貌特征,但并不是有序/无序相变过程中产生的反相畴界。在马氏体相变过程中,马氏体畴形核并且长大,畴与畴之间相互碰撞,最终导致反相畴界状结构的产生。
