摘    要:讨论变形钛及钛合金的3种主要熔炼方法。高密度夹杂和低密度夹杂是导致钛及钛合金制品疲劳裂纹和锻造裂纹的两种主要缺陷,真空自耗电弧熔炼(VAR)去除这两种缺陷的能力有限,而电子束冷床炉(EBCHM)和等离子冷床炉(PACHM)熔炼却有很好的效果,但HM+VAR工艺的铸锭仍有低密度夹杂存在。多次VAR熔炼会加剧合金成分不均匀,而CHM熔炼的铸锭成分不均匀程度更大。EB炉适合熔炼纯钛和低合金钛,PA炉适合熔炼钛合金,前者元素挥发较厉害,后者的铸锭中存在气孔和表面冷隔。HM熔炼的扁锭对轧制板材具有成本优势,而对其他类型的产品这种优势可能不复存在。基于成本的考虑,对熔炼技术的掌握程度是一个不可忽视的因素。

Abstract: The main three kinds of melt methods were discussed for wrought Ti and Ti alloy. High-density inclusions (HDIs) and low-density inclusions (LDIs) can initiate the fatigue cracks and forging cracks. Both electron-beam cold hearth melting (EBCHM) and plasma-arc cold hearth melting (PACHM) processes have significantly greater capabilities to eliminate LDIs and HDIs compared with the three VAR processes (3-VAR), however LDIs are found in a few HM+VAR heats. Although repeated VAR makes the chemical composition heterogeneity become serious, it is still better than HM. The melting of Ti alloys using EBCHM makes the marked volatile of high vapor pressure alloying elements, EB furnace is more suitable for melting CPTi and low alloy titanium. PACHM is a good process for melting titanium alloy, despite existing gas pores within ingots and cold shuts in the ingot surfaces. There is cost advantage directly rolling into plate and sheet products by HM compared with two VAR processes (2-VAR) to cost Ti and Ti alloy into a rectangular ingot, while the advantage maybe no longer exists for other types of products. Based on cost considerations, technical mastery of the melting should not be ignored.
