轴肩直径对Ti-6Al-4V钛合金搅拌摩擦焊接头组织和性能的影响

Influence of shaft shoulder diameter on microstructure and properties of Ti-6Al-4V friction stir welding joint

作为搅拌摩擦焊用搅拌头的重要尺寸,轴肩直径对焊接接头组织性能都产生影响。采用不同轴肩直径进行了2 mm厚Ti-6Al-4V钛合金搅拌摩擦焊试验,并进行了显微组织的金相(OM)分析和电子背散射衍射(EBSD)分析,以及力学性能的测试与分析。结果表明,当轴肩直径在8~14 mm时,2 mm厚Ti-6Al-4V钛合金搅拌摩擦焊接头焊核区晶粒先细化后粗化、接头抗拉强度和接头系数先提高后下降;当轴肩直径为12 mm时,焊核区晶粒最细小,平均晶粒尺寸~7μm,接头抗拉强度和接头系数最高,分别为929 MPa、91%。

As an important parameter for the stir head of friction stir welding(FSW),the diameter of the shaft shoulder has an effect on the microstructure and properties of the welded joints.The friction stir welding of Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy with 2 mm thickness was carried out with different shaft shoulder diameters.The microstructure and mechanical properties were analyzed.The results show that when the diameter of the shoulder is at 8~14 mm,the grain in the nugget area of the Ti-6Al-4V FSW joint is first refined and then coarse,and the joint tensile strength and joint coefficient are first increased and then decreased.When the diameter of the shoulder is at 12 mm,the grain in the nugget area is the smallest with the average grain size of 7μm,and the joint tensile strength and joint coefficient are the highest with the value at 929 MPa and 91%respectively.
