Abstract
A major quality challenge in the application of titanium alloys is the persistence of substances known as “hard-alpha inclusions”. Although hard-alpha inclusions are extremely rare and typically small in size in high-quality titanium alloys for aero-engine disks, their hard and brittle nature poses a non-negligible threat to the structural integrity of the disks. Due to the extreme scarcity of natural hard-alpha inclusions, most previous studies have focused on “synthetic dense hard-alpha particles” rather than “real porous hard-alpha inclusions”, inevitably over-looking the differences between them. In this work, a method of introducing titanium nitride sponge preforms into the electrode preparation step of the smelting process is proposed and implemented, successfully fabricating real porous hard-alpha inclusions in TC4 titanium alloy disks. On this basis, the detection…
