摘要
Multisheet structure of Inconel 718 superalloy will be widely used in vehicles as heat resisting and heat shielding structure due to its lightweight, high strength and stiffness. Multisheet structure of Inconel 718 superalloy was processed by laser beam welding and superplastic forming (LBW/SPF) technology in the present paper. Multisheet structure of Inconel718 superalloy processed by LBW/SPF technology exhibits good configuration and uniform thickness distribution. Laser beam welding parameters for multisheet structure were as follows: pulse frequency was 32 Hz; pulse duration 3 ms; peak power per pulse 4500 W; welding speed 180 mm min(-1); SPF parameters were as follows: temperature T(f)=965 degrees C; forming pressure P(f)=4.2 MPa; forming time t(f)=130 min. Microstructure of multisheet structure was studied carefully. Microstructure in weld fusion zone was constituted of austenite dendritics and Laves phase precipitated in interdendritics. After SPF process, austenite dendritics in the weld fusion became coarser and most of Laves phases were dissolved and turned into delta precipitated phase but a few of Laves phases were still reserved. And Nb concentration in dendritics increased to 5.42% compared to 2.82% under as welded condition. Weld metal hardness increased from 331.63 under as welded condition to 391.74 under post-SPF condition which was closed to the base material hardness of post-SPF. Grain size of base material grew slightly and an amount of precipitated phase appeared in the base material undergoing SPF process. The tensile test results of base material show that tensile strength increased obviously and the ductility decreased slightly after SPF process. Therefore, LBW/SPF technology is an appropriate forming technique for multisheet structure of Inconel 718 superalloy.
