摘要: 采用球磨+冷压制坯+微波加热烧结工艺制备Ti–15Mg复合材料,研究球磨工艺对Ti–15Mg混合粉末性能以及烧结后复合材料力学性能的影响。结果表明:以200 r·min−1球磨转速球磨8~10 h,随着球磨时间延长,混合粉末的平均粒径明显变小,粉末粒度分布逐渐集中在10~45 μm区间,粉末的球形度增加。在长时间球磨过程中,软质镁颗粒受到强烈撞击、研磨,引起表面破碎,钛颗粒出现了体积破碎和表面破碎,最终导致软质镁颗粒包裹脆性钛颗粒。球磨8 h后,混合粉末未出现明显的氧化,混合粉末中钛、镁粉末分布较为均匀,复合材料的力学性能较为优良,符合作为医用材料的力学性能要求。在低球磨转速下,球磨转速的提高不会导致粉末性能和烧结后复合材料性能出现明显变化。最佳球磨工艺参数为球磨时间8 h、球磨速度200 r·min−1,过程控制剂为正己烷。Abstract: Ti–15Mg composites were prepared by ball milling, cold pressing, and microwave heating sintering. The effects of ball milling parameters on the properties of the Ti–15Mg mixed powders and the mechanical properties of the sintered composites were studied. The results show that, the average particle size of the mixed powders decreases significantly with the extension of the milling time at the ball milling speed of 200 r·min−1 for 8~10 h, the particle size distribution gradually concentrates in the range of 10~45 μm, and the sphericity of the powders increases. In the process of long-time ball milling, the soft Mg particles are subjected to the strong impact and ground, eventually leading to the soft Mg particles wrapped in the brittle Ti particles. After ball milling for 8 h, there are no obvious oxidations in the mixed powders. The distribution of Ti and Mg powders in the mixed powders are relatively uniform, and the mechanical properties of the composites are relatively excellent, which meets the requirements of medical materials. At low milling speed, the increase of milling speed can not lead to the significant change in the powder’s properties and the sintered composite properties. The optimal ball milling parameters are obtained as the ball milling time of 8 h and the milling speed of 200 r·min−1 with n-hexane as the process control agent.
