采用放电等离子烧结(SPS)技术取代传统热等静压工艺,制备出具有超细晶粒的纳米结构9Cr氧化物弥散强化(ODS)钢。利用SEM及阿基米德排水法分析了不同放电烧结温度(900,950,1050℃)对ODS钢组织形貌和致密度的影响;通过HRTEM,STEM-HAADF及EDS分析了SPS-ODS钢的微观组织特征等。结果表明机械合金化粉末在950℃时SPS效果最好,密度可达理论密度的97.7%;SPS-ODS钢由超细晶粒(≤200 nm)和大晶粒(≥1μm)混合组织构成;基体中弥散分布着高密度纳米尺寸的Y-Ti-O团簇及Y2Ti2O7相,在晶界上存在少量尺寸较大(30~100 nm)的尖晶石结构Mn(Ti)Cr2O4。
Ultra-fine grain 9Cr-oxide dispersion strengthened(ODS) steel was prepared by spark plasma sintering(SPS),instead of the traditional hot isostatic pressing(HIP).The microstructure and density of the SPS-ODS steel with different sintering temperatures(900,950,1050 ℃) were analyzed by SEM and Archimedes' Principle,respectively.The grain size and precipitates characterization of the SPS-ODS steel were analyzed by HRTEM,STEM-HAADF and EDS.The results show that 950 ℃ is the optimal SPS temperature and the relative density reaches up to 97.7%.The mixture of ultra-fine nano grains(≤200 nm) and coarse grains(≥1 μm) is observed in SPS-ODS steel.High-density nano-sized Y-Ti-O clusters and Y2Ti2O7 phases are dispersed homogenously in the ODS steel.Large size spinel structured Mn(Ti)Cr2O4 precipitates(30~100 nm) are formed mainly at grain boundaries.
