Abstract:
As the primary candidate material for plasma facing components (PFCs) in fusion reactor, the serious brittleness of tungsten has become an urgent issue to be solved. In this work, a multi-doped W-Hf-Y2O3 2 O 3 alloy was prepared by high-energy ball milling and spark plasma sintering, aiming at improving its toughness through formation of complex oxide particles. Complex Y2Hf2O7 2 Hf 2 O 7 with pyrochlore structure were developed in the multi-doped WHY alloy due to dissolution and precipitation mechanism, which was confirmed by the combined characterization results of X-ray diffraction (XRD), electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). Complex oxide particles of Y2Hf2O7 2 Hf 2 O 7 with average size of 38.8 nm were densely distributed in the alloy. The formation of complex Y2Hf2O7 2 Hf 2 O 7 particles with nano-scale size not only consumed the impurity of oxygen, but also played a critical role in grain refinement because of Zener pinning effect. Improvement in mechanical properties of the multi-doped WHY alloy was then achieved, and the fracture toughness and compressive strength reached 19.7 MPa center dot m1/2 center dot m 1/2 and 2223.4 MPa, respectively.
