Abstract:Ti-47.5Al-6.8 Nb-0.2W-xY (x=0,0.1,0.2 at.%) alloys were prepared by high - energy ball milling and spark plasma sintering processes, and the effects of Y microalloying on the high temperature compression creep properties of Ti-47.5Al-6.8 Nb-0.2W alloys were investigated by SEM, EBSD and TEM. Creep experiments were carried out at 800~850 ℃, with a stress of 250 MPa and a time of 50 h. The results show that the Ti-47.5Al-6.8Nb-0.2W-xY alloys are all composed of equiaxial γ grains, γ grain boundaries of the bulk α2 and B2 phases, α2/γ lamellar colonies .The added Y is mainly in the form of Al2Y particles at the grain boundaries to form a chain structure, Y can refine the grains and increase the α2/γ lamellar colonies, when the Y content was increased from 0 to 0.2, the grain size was reduced from 12.1 μm to 7.8 μm, with the most significant refining effect. After creep in the alloy γ grains slightly flattened, lamellar bending and degradation phenomenon, lamellar clusters within the appearance of a large number of fine recrystallised grains and spherical B2 phase, creep temperature increases to promote the formation of dynamic recrystallisation. The addition of Y significantly improves the compressive creep properties of the alloy. At 800 ℃, the maximum creep strain of the 0.2Y alloy is 8.96%, and the minimum creep rate is 4.01×10-7 s-1, which is reduced by 48.88% and 62.09%, respectively, compared with that of the alloy without Y. The improvement in the mechanical properties of the alloys was attributed to the precipitation strengthening of the second phase Al2Y particles, lamellar refinement and reduction of the B2 phase.
