RESUMO

This work presents a comprehensive investigation into the optimization of critical process parameters associated with metal fused filament fabrication (Metal-FFF) for the production of copper-based components. The study focused on three different commercial and one self-manufactured filament, each with unique chemical compositions. These filaments were systematically optimized and the density was characterized for all processing steps, as well as the electrical conductivity on the specimen scale. Remarkably, two of the studied filaments exhibited exceptional properties after sintering with forming gas (up to 94% density and 55.75 MS/m electrical conductivity), approaching the properties measured for established manufacturing methods like metal injection molding. Finally, the research was extended to component-scale applications, demonstrating the successful fabrication of inductors with integrated cooling channels. These components exhibited water tightness and were used in induction hardening experiments, validating the practical utility of the optimized Metal-FFF process. In summary, the results show great promise in advancing the utilization of Metal-FFF in industrial contexts, particularly in the production of high-performance copper components.

RESUMO

Phase separation into an A2+B2 two-phase microstructure in refractory compositionally complex alloys (RCCA) has been speculated as being spinodal in nature with continuous chemical distribution during the separation. However, these reactions might instead occur as precipitation by nucleation and growth. In order to unequivocally elucidate the distinct nature of phase separation sequence in RCCA from the system Ta-Mo-Ti-Cr-Al, atom probe tomography and electron microscopy techniques were utilized on samples that were annealed over multiple orders of magnitude in time. The composition 82(TaMoTi)-8Cr-10Al (at.%) was chosen, as it exhibits a two-phase microstructure, with a desired A2 matrix and embedded B2 phase. Quenching the samples from 1200°C resulted in a microstructure consisting of ordered clusters (2 nm) of distinct chemical composition. Subsequent annealing at 800°C to 1000°C leads to an increase in the volume fraction of the precipitating phase, which saturates after 10 h. Further annealing leads to the ripening of the microstructure; however, the absolute size of the precipitates stays <100 nm even after 1000 h. For the investigated conditions, the interface between matrix and precipitate can be considered sharp within the resolution of the applied techniques and no significant change in the transition of chemical composition across the interface is observed. Therefore, the phase separation mechanism is confirmed to be phase nucleation and growth in contrast to the possible spinodal decomposition, as hypothesized for other RCCA systems. The impact of precipitation and coarsening on the hardness of the alloy is discussed.
