Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for manufacturing a superelastic part made of nickel and titanium alloy.
- the method of the invention aims, on the contrary, to produce a truly superelastic part thanks to a reasoned choice of the composition of the titanium and nickel alloy and a martensite platelet generation heat treatment in this alloy.
- This object is achieved by the process of the invention which is characterized in that it consists in producing an ingot from of a mixture of nickel and titanium comprising 55.6% ⁇ 0.4% in weight of nickel and to carry out a heat treatment of generation of martensite wafers by subjecting said part at a temperature between 480 and 520 ° C during a duration between 1 and 60 minutes.
- the ingot produced has a transition temperature at the end of the appearance of austenite A f of less than 20 ° C. under stress, so that the material is really superelastic under normal temperature conditions.
- the martensite platelet generation heat treatment facilitates the movements of these platelets inside the material, which corresponds to the superelastic nature.
- the process also includes a step of flash annealing, this annealing flash being carried out at a temperature between 600 ° and 800 ° C for a period of between 10 and 30 seconds, this duration being a function of the transverse dimensions of the part.
- This flash annealing partially anneals the surface of the part, which increases its ductility without harming its elasticity.
- the process includes a crystallization annealing step prior to platelet generation heat treatment of martensite, this crystallization annealing being carried out at a temperature between 700 and 800 ° C, preferably between 720 and 780 ° C for a period greater than two minutes.
- the temperature range chosen for crystallization annealing achieves true crystallization without precipitation phases of the alloy rich in nickel and without embrittlement of the alloy by grain enlargement.
- the process includes a work hardening step prior to treatment thermal generation of martensite wafers, this work hardening being between 15 and 28%, preferably between 20 and 27%.
- the purpose of work hardening is to break the structure of annealing and creating dislocations serving as sites of germination to deformation martensite.
- this work hardening is cold or lukewarm, i.e. at a temperature less than 500 ° C.
- work hardening can be performed with intermediate annealing, at a temperature between 400 and 550 ° C.
- An alloy is really superelastic when the deformation martensite created under a stress ⁇ is not stable.
- the alloy should not be in the martensitic state in this temperature range. In other words, an alloy is sought whose temperature M s is less than -20 ° C.
- the temperature difference separating M s and A f is of the order of 40 ° C for titanium and nickel alloys, so that, to comply with the condition previously stated, it is necessary to '' have an alloy whose temperature A f under stress is less than 20 ° C.
- the effect of a stress on an alloy of titanium and nickel influences the temperatures identified above, to the point that these can be shifted upwards by approximately 30 ° C. This is why, when it is desired to have a temperature A f of less than 20 ° C under stress, it is necessary to provide an alloy composition such that A f is less than -10 ° C in the absence of stress.
- condition A f below -10 ° C corresponds to an alloy of titanium and nickel rich in nickel, that is to say comprising nickel in a proportion of 55.6% ⁇ 0.4% by weight with, optionally, conventional addition elements such as iron, copper or vanadium, these elements replacing nickel according to rules known to those skilled in the art.
- Particularly interesting results have been obtained in the case where the percentage of nickel is between 55.8 and 56% by weight.
- the process of the invention thus begins with a step 1 of mixture of nickel and titanium in the chosen proportions.
- Stage 1 is followed by a fusion 2, at a temperature of the order of 1300 to 1500 ° C., leading to a first transformation of the ingot when hot, ie at a temperature of between 900 and 1000 ° C., represented by stage 3.
- a fusion 2 at a temperature of the order of 1300 to 1500 ° C., leading to a first transformation of the ingot when hot, ie at a temperature of between 900 and 1000 ° C., represented by stage 3.
- Several stages of work hardening 4 and several stages of successive annealing 5 of the ingot can be provided, which is represented by the looping arrow F 1 in FIG. 3.
- the martensite platelet generation heat treatment included in the process of the invention which is represented by step 12 in FIG. 3, must not have a negative influence on the transition temperature A f, that is to say - say increase this temperature.
- the heat treatment may have the effect of precipitating TiNi 3 , Ti 2 Ni 3 or Ti 2 Ni 4 .
- this precipitation corresponds to a decrease in the relative value of nickel in the alloy, so that the transition temperature is displaced according to arrow F in FIG. 2 and that it increases in the unwanted direction. It is therefore important to avoid as much as possible the formation of TiNi 3 or other similar compounds during the heat treatment. It has been determined experimentally that little or no TiNi 3 is formed when the heat treatment is carried out at a temperature above 480 ° C.
- the process also includes a step 11 of flash annealing prior to platelet generation heat treatment martensite.
- This step 11 could also be later at treatment 12.
- This flash annealing is carried out at a temperature between 600 and 800 ° C for a period between 10 and 30 seconds. This duration depends on transverse dimensions of the wire, that is to say of its diameter.
- the purpose of the flash treatment is to improve the ductility, that is to say the fatigue resistance of the part, without harming with a superelastic effect. This is achieved if a fraction corresponding to approximately 10% of the mass of the part is annealed near the surface of it.
- this flash annealing can be carried out at a temperature included between 720 ° and 780 ° C.
- a step 6 of annealing treatment of crystallization is also planned before the heat treatment generation of martensite platelets.
- This annealing of crystallization must bring a real recrystallization of the whole piece, that is to say that the grains elongated during rolling must be able to be broken to form grains smaller.
- crystallization annealing must be long enough to bring the whole room to the desired temperature. For a small diameter wire, this is done after two about minutes. For a large piece or a coil complete with wire, crystallization annealing may take longer of one hour.
- the treatment of annealing tends to weaken the alloy by magnifying the grains or even burns when the annealing temperature reaches 900 ° C. This is why, for safety, we limit the annealing temperature at about 800 ° C.
- a step 8 work hardening is also provided in the process in order to break the annealing structure and create dislocations serving as a germination site for deformation martensite. Practical tests have shown that when this work hardening is limited to 15%, “annealed” austenite remains inside material and the superelastic effect is not optimal. We speak in this case of "soft" component of the material.
- This work hardening can be carried out in one or more stages, which is represented by the looping arrow F 2 in FIG. 3, cold or lukewarm, that is to say at a temperature below 500 ° C.
- an intermediate annealing step 9 can be provided at a temperature between 400 and 550 ° C so not to generate a new recrystallization of the alloy.
- This intermediate annealing allows, in particular, a setting easier workpiece shape while improving elongation elastic obtainable.
- the wire is calibrated in a shaping step 10.
- a superelastic part obtained by the process of the invention finds many applications.
- the process can be used for the manufacture of threads, the diameter is between 0.5 and 5 mm and which can serve as glasses frame, but also bra frame, cell phone antenna, needle, prosthetic piece or for ancillary equipment intended for the installation of prostheses in the medical field.
- the cross section of these wires can be round, square, rectangular or other, as desired the user.
