Abstract
En 中文
This study investigates the effects of C alloying below and near the solid-solubility limit on the microstructure, high-temperature tensile properties, and deformation behavior of high-Nb TiAl alloys. The results indicate that C acts as a potent α-phase stabilizer, and the resulting solid-solution strengthening is primarily responsible for the enhanced high-temperature strength of the alloy. The addition of C significantly improves high-temperature strength at the expense of ductility. Dislocation slip and twinning serve as the dominant plastic deformation mechanisms of the alloy, while dynamic recrystallization, acting as a microstructural softening mechanism, is progressively suppressed with increasing C content. When the C content reaches 0.7%, nano-sized Ti3AlC precipitates along lamellar colony boundaries and equiaxed γ grain boundaries, which significantly refines the lamellar colony size. These findings provide valuable insights for the design and development of TiAl alloys for high-temperature applications.
