摘要
Effects of trace TiB2 on solidification microstructure of Ti-6Al-4V alloy were investigated. The result shows that the microstructure of the ingot was refined by the added TiB2. The grain size and a lath size were reduced gradually with the increase in TiB2. The grain size is reduced by about an order of magnitude with an addition of 0.96wt-%TiB2, and the dendrite appears in the ingot. Such a tendency is similar to the change of the microstructure with boron addition. Ti-6Al-4V-B phase diagram and growth restriction factor Q are applied to analyse the influence mechanism of trace TiB2 on the microstructure.
