Abstract

Intermetallic TiAl alloys are light-weight high-temperature materials and intended to partly replace Ni based alloys in jet engines. Due to difficult forming operations, component prices are high and limit the possible field of application. During hot-working, recovery and recrystallization effects determine the microstructural evolution and thereby the mechanical properties of the finished part as well as its behavior during deformation. To study the occurring phenomena, in-situ diffraction experiments with high-energy X-rays were conducted. By means of this method, the dominating processes were identified. The results were validated through electron back scatter diffraction experiments.

Kurzfassung

Intermetallische TiAl-Legierungen sind hochwarmfeste Werkstoffe geringer Dichte und sollen zum Teil Legierungen auf Nickelbasis in Strahltriebwerken ersetzen. Auf Grund komplexer Umformschritte sind die Preise der Teile hoch und schränken den möglichen Anwendungsbereich ein. Während der Warmverformung werden die Entwicklung der Mikrostruktur und dadurch die mechanischen Eigenschaften des fertigen Teils sowie dessen Verhalten bei der Umformung von Erholungs- und Rekristallisationsvorgängen bestimmt. Um diese Phänomene zu untersuchen wurden in-situ Beugungsexperimente mit hochenergetischer Röntgenstrahlung durchgeführt. Mit Hilfe des verwendeten Verfahrens wurden die vorherrschenden Prozesse charakterisiert und die gewonnenen Resultate mittels EBSD-Untersuchungen validiert.
