摘要 | Carbon nanotubes were blended into a Ti–6Al–4V matrix to synthesize titanium carbide (TiC) in situ, via spark plasma sintering. The microstructure and mechanical properties of both the monolithic Ti–6Al–4V alloys and the TiC/Ti–6Al–4V composites were studied to evaluate the strengthening effects of TiC on the Ti–6Al–4V matrix. The morphologies obtained by scanning electronic microscopy and optical microscopy indicated that the grain size of both the Ti–6Al–4V alloy and the TiC/Ti–6Al–4V composite decreased with increasing planetary ball-milling (PBM) speed, leading to an increase in the hardness of the investigated materials. The compressive yield strength of the monolithic Ti–6Al–4V alloys and the TiC/Ti–6Al–4V composites initially increased and then decreased with increasing PBM speed. The strengthening and fracture mechanisms were studied. © 2017 Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining. |
