利用选区激光熔化技术制备析出强化型高性能多主元合金存在难以成形的问题,极易开裂。本工作通过选区激光熔化制备Ni58Cr23Fe10W5Ti2Ta1Nb1 (含0.02%B,质量分数)多主元合金,揭示其裂纹形成机理,探索抑制裂纹形成的途径。结果表明,裂纹沿粗大柱状晶的晶界开裂,且优先出现在大角度晶界处,裂纹表面呈现光滑、清晰的树枝晶形貌,为典型的凝固裂纹。形成凝固裂纹的主要原因是:在凝固末期,B元素偏析于晶界,促进低熔点液膜产生,大角度晶界使得液膜保持稳定状态,循环加热/冷却导致的残余应力作用于液膜进而触发凝固开裂。热输入与开裂敏感性并非线性关系,仅通过调控热输入无法消除裂纹,只能在一定程度上抑制裂纹。通过添加TiB2纳米颗粒,增加晶界密度,缓解局部应力集中,成功消除了凝固裂纹。

With the increasing sophistication of laser additive manufacturing technology, the need for high-performance alloys suitable for additive manufacturing has grown. Developing new alloys with excellent mechanical properties and good formability has become a critical direction in the field of additive manufacturing, but severe defect-like cracking remains a major concern. Based on a new design concept from the corners of the phase diagrams to the central region, multi-principal element alloys (MPEAs, i.e., high-entropy alloys) have introduced new opportunities for the development of high-performance additive manufactured alloys. Ni58Cr23Fe10W5Ti2Ta1Nb1 MPEA (containing 0.02%B element, mass fraction) shows great potential for overcoming the severe trade-off between manufacturability and high strength. On the one hand, Ni58Cr23Fe10W5Ti2Ta1Nb1 MPEA has a yield strength of ~1 GPa and an elongation of ~25%, thus its comprehensive performance is superior to that of most existing MPEAs. On the other hand, because of its slower precipitation kinetics than the IN718 alloy, the main strengthening phase (
