Densification behavior, microstructure evolution, and wear performance of selective laser melting processed commercially pure titanium
چکیده انگلیسی

This work presents a comprehensive study of the densification behavior, phase and microstructure development, hardness and wear performance of commercially pure Ti parts processed by selective laser melting (SLM). An in-depth relationship between SLM process, microstructures, properties, and metallurgical mechanisms has been established. A combination of a low scan speed and attendant high laser energy density resulted in the formation of microscopic balling phenomenon and interlayer thermal microcracks, caused by a low liquid viscosity, a long liquid lifetime, and resultant elevated thermal stress. In contrast, using a high scan speed produced the disorderly liquid solidification front and considerably large balling, due to an elevated instability of the liquid induced by Marangoni convection. A narrow, feasible process window was accordingly determined to eliminate process defects and result in full densification. The phase constitutions and microstructural characteristics of SLM-processed Ti parts experienced a successive change on increasing the applied scan speeds: relatively coarsened lath-shaped α → refined acicular-shaped martensitic α′ → further refined zigzag-structured martensitic α′, due to the elevated thermal and kinetic undercooling and attendant solidification rate. The optimally prepared fully dense Ti parts had a very high hardness of 3.89 GPa, a reduced coefficient of friction of 0.98 and wear rate of 8.43 × 10−4 mm3 N−1 m−1 in dry sliding wear tests. The formation of an adherent, plastically smeared tribolayer on the worn surface contributed to the enhancement of wear performance.
