Modified Nb-Si-Based Multi-Element Alloys
Edit

Nb-Si-based superalloys are considered as the most promising high-temperature structural material to replace the Ni-based superalloys. Unfortunately, the poor oxidation resistance is still a major obstacle to the application of Nb-Si-based alloys. Alloying is a promising method to overcome this problem.

microstructure alloying Nb-Si Modification

1. Nb-Si-Based Alloys Modified with Hf Elements

In order to promote the high-temperature oxidation resistance of Nb-Si-based alloys, researchers have tried to add different kinds of elements, and Hf is a common addition element. Geng et al. [1] produced the Nb-Si-Al-Cr alloy by a non-consumption arc-melting process and the effects of Ti, Mo, and Hf on the oxidation behavior of the alloy at different temperatures were studied. Figure 1 shows cross-sections of the oxidized alloys. The scales of the alloy were a complex mixture of Nb and Ti oxides; oxygen was dissolved in the niobium solid solution (Nbss) below the oxide scale of the alloy. The oxidation kinetics curve is shown in Figure 2a. It can be seen that the oxidation of these alloys includes two stages: the initial linear stage and the later parabolic stage. The weight gain rate of the alloy with the Hf element decreases gradually after 55 h of oxidation, while its oxidation resistance becomes worse after heat treatment. Furthermore, Geng et al. [2] have also studied the effects of Ti, Hf, and Sn on the oxidation resistance of the Nb-Si-Al-Cr-Mo alloy, and the oxidation weight gain curve is shown in Figure 2b. It is clear that the addition of Hf decreases the oxidation rate of as-cast alloy but increases the oxidation rate of heat-treated alloy. The oxidation behavior of these alloys is mainly controlled by the oxidation of Nbss, and the volume fraction of Nbss has a great impact on the oxidation resistance of the alloy.

In addition, Vazquez et al. [3] also studied the effects of Hf element on the antioxidant properties of Nb-Si-based alloys. The microscopic morphology of the alloy after oxidation is shown in Figure 3. Analysis shows that the products of oxidation are Nb2O5, HfO2, and un-reacted NbCr2. Nbss in the alloy is prone to selective oxidation. After long-term oxidation at 700 °C, there are a large number of powder oxides and cracks in the oxide layer, which has no protective effect. Figure 2c shows the oxidation curves for both alloys doped with 5Hf and 10Hf (at.%) at 700, 800, and 1400 °C, respectively. The oxidation experiments reveal that both alloys exhibit a good oxidation resistance at 700 °C, the 10Hf alloy has lower oxidation weight gain than 5Hf alloy at all temperatures. The researchers attribute the alloy’s better oxidation resistance to the formation of a thin protective layer.

Zhang et al. [4] studied the effects of Hf, B, and Cr on the antioxidant properties of Nb-Si-based superalloys. The research shows that the weight gain per unit area of the alloy decreases from 157 to 139 mg/cm2 after oxidation at 1250 °C for 50 h. Meanwhile, the synergistic addition of Hf, B, and Cr makes the oxidation resistance of the alloy more excellent. Zhang et al. [5]. also studied the antioxidant properties of Nb-Si-based alloys with different Hf contents and found that the oxide layers of these alloys fell off and had poor adhesion. The cross-sectional BSE image of the alloy after oxidation is shown in Figure 4. The oxides of the alloys are TiO2 and HfO2, as determined by EDS. HfO2 is mainly found at the interface between Nbss and (Nb,X)5Si3 (rod-like morphology) or at the edges of silicide blocks (needle-like morphology). More severe internal oxidation occurs with Hf addition. With the addition of Hf, the formation of α(Nb,X)5Si3 was inhibited, while the formation of γ(Nb,X)5Si3 was promoted, and the former has better oxidation resistance, since the former phase is not attacked, while the latter phase is partly oxidized. The histogram of oxidation weight gain is shown in Figure 2d. It is obvious that the weight change of the alloy decreases first and then increases with the increase in Hf, and the alloy with 2Hf (at.%) has the least weight gain. It may be due to the large size of Hf atoms, which inhibited the diffusion of other metal atoms. Although the addition of 8Hf (at.%) did not improve the oxidation resistance of the alloy, it increased the room temperature fracture toughness of the alloy, and the eutectic structure in the alloy has been refined significantly. It can be seen that the contents of Hf have a great influence on the comprehensive performance of the alloy.

2. Nb-Si-Based Alloys Modified with Cr Elements

Chromium has the advantages of high melting point, excellent chemical stability, and easy alloying with other elements. It is widely used in Fe-based and Ni-based alloys. The Cr2Nb phase formed after the addition of Cr element in niobium alloy has the advantages of high melting point and oxidation resistance [6][7][8]. The oxide CrNbO4 has better oxidation resistance than Nb2O5, and it can also improve the adhesion between the oxide layer and substrate [9][10]. Zhang et al. [4] studied the effects of Hf, B, and Cr elements on the microstructure and properties of Nb-Si-based superalloys by a vacuum non-consumption arc-melting process. (The alloy with x at.% Hf, y at.% B, and z at.% Cr content is denoted by xHf-yB-zCr below.) The histogram of the oxidation weight gain of alloys with different compositions is shown in Figure 5a. Obviously, the 0Hf-0B-0Cr alloy (base alloy) has the most weight gain after oxidation (157 mg/cm2 for 50 h), displaying the worst oxidation resistance. The oxidation weight gain decreases from 157 to 139 mg/cm2 after Hf addition (4Hf-0B-0Cr alloy), and the oxidation resistance is slightly ameliorated. Furthermore, the synergistic effects of Hf, Cr, and B enhance the oxidation resistance of the alloy significantly, and the weight gain of the 4Hf-2B-5Cr alloy is 91 mg/cm2 at 50 h. The room temperature fracture toughness of the alloy decreases with the addition of Cr, and the microhardness increases with the addition of Cr. In addition, Wang et al. [9] prepared the Nb-22Ti-14Si-2HF-2Al-xCr (x = 2 at.%, 6 at.%, 10 at.%, 14 at.%, 17 at %) alloys, and the effect of Cr on oxidation resistance and mechanical properties of the alloy were studied. Figure 5b shows the oxidation kinetics curve of these alloys at 1250 °C. It is obvious that with the increase in the contents of Cr, the oxidation weight gain decreases gradually, and the oxidation resistance of the alloy improves gradually. The 17Cr (at.%) alloy has the best antioxidant properties, which may be due to the formation of the protective Cr2O3/SiO2 film. In addition, with the increase in Cr content, the fracture toughness of the alloy decreases, and the hardness of Nbss increases. Moreover, the studies of Zelenitsas [11] and Esparza [12] show that the synergy of Cr and Al can form the protective Al2O3/CrNbO4 film and reduce the oxidation rate inside the alloy. The Cr element has stronger O affinity than Nb, and the formation of stable Cr2O3 can improve the compactness and stability of the oxide layer [13][14][15]; thus, the alloy has better oxidation resistance.

3. Nb-Si-Based Alloys Modified with Zr Elements

Among the many types of alloy systems, Zr addition can refine the microstructure and promote the oxidation resistance of the alloy [16][17][18][19]. After the oxidation of Zr, ZrO2 is formed, which has the characteristics of low thermal conductivity, excellent thermal vibration resistance, and oxidation resistance. In the work of Zhang et al. [20], the effect of V, Zr, and other elements on the antioxidant properties of Nb-15Si-24Ti-4Cr-2Al-2Hf (at %) alloy was investigated. The surface SEM images of the alloy oxide upon 1250 °C for 100 h are shown in Figure 6a–c; Figure 6(a1–c1) show the macroscopic morphology after oxidation. It is apparent that the alloy has a rough and porous surface, and the oxide layer is seriously peeled off. The condition has not been improved after adding V, but the oxide layer is relatively dense and complete after adding Zr. Figure 6d–f shows the SEM morphology of the oxidation cross-section, and the oxide layer consists of inner and outer layers. The surface of the base alloy and 1 V alloy after oxidation is loose and porous after peeling off. Although the oxide layer of 1Zr alloy falls off also, an oxide layer rich in silicon and oxygen is formed on the surface. Combined with the oxidation kinetics curve in Figure 7a, it can be inferred that a protective oxide layer is produced on the surface of the 1Zr alloy. The results of WDS and EPMA analysis show that an SiO2 film is formed in the oxide outer layer, which inhibits the diffusion of O2 and protects the alloy substrate.

In order to ascertain the influence of Zr content on the oxidation resistance of Nb-Si-based alloy, Zhang et al. [21] designed the Nb-Si-based alloys with different Zr content, and the oxidation behavior of the alloy at 1300 °C was studied. The microstructure of the oxide layer on the alloy surface is shown in Figure 8a–d. It is apparent that the oxide on the surface of 0Zr and 3Zr alloys is rod-like, rough, and porous. When the Zr content reaches more than 5 at.%, the oxides have a polygonal structure and compact arrangement. Figure 8e–h show the oxidation fracture surface microstructures of 0Zr, 3Zr, 5Zr, and 7Zr, respectively, and the oxide layer is mainly composed of TiO2, Nb2O5, TiNb2O7, and Ti2Nb10O29. A small amount of ZrO2 is detected in the 7Zr alloy. Meanwhile, no SiO2 is detected in the oxide, which may be attributed to the amorphous state of SiO2. Figure 7b shows the oxidation kinetics curve of the alloy. It is obvious that the weight gain of the alloy decreases with the increase in Zr. The weight gain curves of 1Zr and 3Zr alloys almost coincide, while the weight gain of 7Zr alloy is about 44% lower than that of 0Zr alloy. Combined with the macroscopic morphology of these alloys after oxidation, it can be seen that the 7Zr alloy has the best oxidation resistance.

In addition, Qiao et al. [22] also carried out a similar study on the effect of Zr content on the microstructure and properties of Nb-Si-based alloys. Figure 9 shows the cross-section BSE image of the alloy after oxidation at 1250 °C for 20 h. It is evident that there are many cracks and holes in the oxide layer, and the thickness of the oxide layers ranges from 260 to 380 μm. The EPMA-WDS analysis shows that the phase composition of the outer layer is TiNb2O7 and TiO2, and the inner layer is Ti2Nb10O29 and Nb2O5. In addition, ZrO2 was also detected in the scales of 4Zr and 8Zr alloys. Obviously, the weight gain of the sample decreases with the increase in Zr, as shown in Figure 7c. It can be seen that Zr plays an important role in advancing the antioxidant properties of Nb-Si-based alloys; meanwhile, the addition of Zr improves not only the room-temperature fracture toughness but also the high-temperature strength and compressive strength of the alloy. In addition, Ma et al. [23] showed that adding Zr or V alone can improve the oxidation resistance of Nb-Si series alloys, but the simultaneous addition of Zr and V will form the CrVNbO6/VNb9O25 harmful oxides, which will reduce the service time of Nb-Si alloys. Moreover, the addition of Zr improves the room-temperature fracture toughness and compressive yield strength of the alloy, and the phase microhardness is also improved due to the solution strengthening effect of Zr.

4. Nb-Si-Based Alloys Modified with B Elements

B elements can refine the grain size and improve the toughness of materials. Studies have shown that the borosilicate glassy layer formed by B and Si in Mo-Si-B alloys has a good repairing effect on cracks and holes in oxide scales [24][25][26][27][28][29], which is of great significance to ameliorate the comprehensive properties. Zhang et al. [28] prepared the Nb-22Ti-16Si-5Cr-4Hf-3Al alloy with different contents of B and studied the effect of B on the microstructure and properties of the alloy. The layer is composed of TiNb2O7, (Ti, Nb, Cr)O2, and Si, as shown in Figure 10. Unexpectedly, no silicon oxide was detected in the oxide layer, which may be due to the formation of amorphous silicate. The oxidation weight gain of 0B, 2B, and 5B alloys are 127.1, 90.5, and 67.6 mg/cm2, respectively, and the thickness of the oxide layer decreases from 882 to 441 μm. Obviously, the antioxidant performance of the sample increases gradually with the increase in B content. The fracture toughness of the alloy increases first and then decreases, while the microhardness of Nbss increases slightly with the increase in B content. Furthermore, Zhang et al. [4] also studied the synergistic effects of B, Hf, and Cr, and the results showed that the synergy of B and Cr had a better oxidation resistance, while the addition of Hf was not conducive to enhancing the oxidation resistance of the alloy. The fracture toughness of the alloy decreases with the addition of B, while the macroscopic hardness does not change significantly. Moreover, in the work of Thomas et al. [30], the effect of different Si and B content (at %) on the oxidation resistance of Nb-25Cr-15Mo-xSi-yB alloy was studied (hereinafter, it is abbreviated as xSi-yB alloy). The oxidation products of 20Si-10B and 20Si-15B (at.%) alloys are mainly CrNbO4 and SiO2. The weight gain of 20Si-15B alloy is the minimum at 1200 and 1400 °C, while the weight gain of 15Si-15B alloy is the minimum at 900 °C, which may be attributed to the occurrence of pest oxidation and the spalling of the oxide layer, as shown in Figure 11. Therefore, the high content of Si and B is more beneficial to enhance the oxidation resistance of the Nb alloys. Moreover, the research of Su et al. [31] shows that the synergy of B and Ge can facilitate the production of continuous and dense oxide film in the alloy and reduce the penetration rate of O2. It is worth noting that the dissolution of B2O3 and GeO2 in silicide can also improve the TEC of the oxide scales and make it more compatible with the substrate so as to suppress the occurrence of cracks and improve the oxidation life of the alloy.
