Abstract
- Ti alloy clad plate is of great interest for marine and petrochemical industry applications. However, high interfacial bonding is hardly obtained in the Ti alloy clad plate due to the brittle intermetallic compounds (IMCs) forming at the interface. In this study, a Ti-6Al-4V alloy/EH690 steel clad plate was fabricated by vacuum rolling and subsequently tempered to control the mechanical property of the steel substrate. The tempered sorbite appeared in the EH690 steel after quenching and tempering (QT). A decarburized zone, Fe 2 Ti + TiC mixed phases layer, and β-Ti layer were formed at the interface between steel and Ti. The brittle IMCs with high lattice mismatch resulted in a low interfacial strength of 108 MPa. To improve bonding strength, Nb was inserted between Ti and steel as an interlayer, which effectively inhibited the inter-diffusion of Ti, Fe, and C without brittle TiC or Fe-Ti IMCs. A (Ti, Nb) solid solution layer with high plasticity was present at the Nb/Ti interface. Fe 2 Nb and Fe 7 Nb 6 phases were detected at the steel/Nb interface, exhibiting less brittleness and hardness compared to Fe-Ti IMCs. The interfacial shear strength was up to 265 MPa after adding the Nb interlayer, showing a mixed fracture mode of brittleness and ductility. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
