摘要
A titanium/CaF2 component was manufactured through the combination of wire and arc additive manufacturing systems as well as activating flux. The effects of CaF2 on macro/microstructures evolution and mechanical properties were investigated. The results showed that the addition of CaF2 to Ti-6Al-4V reduced the width of component and the aspect ratio of alpha-lath, increased p volume fraction, whereas the intermittent grain boundary-alpha structure was obtained. In addition, tensile strength of the components at room temperature was significantly improved. Consequently, these findings indicated that activating fluxes offered a possibility to produce the desired microstructures and improve mechanical properties of titanium alloys during additive manufacturing.
