Abstract

Mechanical alloying (MA) is an efficient approach for fabricating particle-dispersion alloys, and has recently been introduced to strengthen structural materials including vanadium alloys for fusion application. Dissolution behavior of the alloying elements is a key issue for optimizing MA in fabricating particle-dispersion vanadium alloys. This paper studies the MA process for V–4Cr–4Ti alloys with Y addition. The result shows that, in V matrix, the dissolution rate of Y is higher than that of Cr, and the dissolution rate of Cr is higher than that of Ti. In addition, dissolution of milling ball material and dispersion particles can harden the MA-fabricated alloy.
