摘要
The Nb-ss/Nb5Si3 in-situ composite with the nominal composition of Nb-24Ti-12Si-4Cr-4Al-2Hf (at%) has been successfully fabricated by electromagnetic cold crucible directional solidification. Microstructures of the initial transition (IT) zone and the steady-state growth (SSG) region were observed by scanning electron microscope, and their phase compositions were analyzed with X-ray diffraction (XRD). The room temperature fracture toughness and the tensile strength at 1250 degrees C were measured. The results indicated that from IT zone to SSG zone, the major silicide transferred from gamma-(Nb,Ti)(5)Si-3 to beta-(Nb,Ti)(5)Si-3. The directional solidification microstructure with coupled Nb-ss and Nb5Si3 was created in SSG region. Compared SSG region with IT zone, the room temperature fracture toughness and the high temperature tensile strength increased about 50% and 24%, respectively, which was contributed to the directional solidification microstructure and the type transformation of silicide.
