Description

A kind of free-cutting Mg-Ca brass and preparation method thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of brass and preparation method thereof, refer more particularly to a kind of environmental protection leadless easy-cutting magnesium calcium brass alloy and preparation method thereof with excellent cutting ability, mechanical property and corrosion resistance nature.
Background technology
Leaded brass has performances such as good easy cutting, mechanics, physics, it is an Albatra metal-of widespread use, developed country only the rate of utilization of brass water pipe just up to more than 90%, yet lead is a kind of to environment and the huge element of human body damaging effect, lead exists in free state simple substance mode in leaded brass, and enter in the water therefore lead content that must the various products of strict control in industrial production along with the corrosion of leaded brass.At present the substitution studies of no leaded brass mainly contains bismuth brass and merimee's yellow copper, but domestic research to bismuth, merimee's yellow copper does not form independent intellectual property right as yet.
Summary of the invention
First technical problem to be solved by this invention provides a kind of have excellent cutting ability, corrosion resistance nature, hot workability and mechanical property and the free-cutting Mg-Ca brass of environmentally safe.
Second technical problem to be solved by this invention provides the preparation method that this free-cutting Mg-Ca brass reaches.
In order to solve above-mentioned first technical problem, free-cutting Mg-Ca brass provided by the invention, become to be grouped into by copper, zinc, magnesium, calcium alloy element and unavoidable impurities, consisting of of described alloy: copper: 58~62wt%, magnesium: 0.5~3.0wt%, calcium: 0.1~1.5wt%, all the other are zinc and unavoidable impurities, and the impurity component total content is less than 0.1wt%.
Calcium contents is 0.2~1.4wt%.
Mg content is 0.6~2.8wt%.
The phase composite of described free-cutting Mg-Ca brass is: α phase, β phase and a small amount of tiny intermetallic compound Cu that is uniformly distributed in crystal boundary 2Mg and Cu 5Hard crisp phase such as Ca.
In order to solve above-mentioned second technical problem; the preparation method of free-cutting Mg-Ca brass provided by the invention; adopt protective covering method melting magnesium calcium brass; calcium adds in the furnace with the calcium-base alloy form that fusing point is lower than pure calcium; under 995~1050 ℃, be cast as the brass ingot casting; the homogenizing place is 2~3 hours under 600~750 ℃ of states, pushes under 600~750 ℃ of temperature, carries out stress relieving under 300~400 ℃.
Adopt above-mentioned technology free-cutting Mg-Ca brass and preparation method thereof, the leadless easy-cutting magnesium calcium brass alloy is to utilize magnesium to replace lead, magnesium has certain solid solubility in brass, simultaneously also be the principal element of strengthening and improve the alloy cutting ability, magnesium is preferential and copper reaction generation intermetallic compound Cu in brass 2Mg, this intermetallic compound easily assemble in mutually at alloy crystal boundary and β, form free machining short chip breaking point, thereby improve the cutting ability of alloy.Handle through homogenizing, make to contain magnesium and the disperse distribution in alloy of the formed intermetallic compound of copper, further improve the alloy cutting ability, thereby make unleaded magnesium calcium brass obtain cutting ability excellent as leaded brass and good hot workability.When Mg content more after a little while, the Cu that solid solution generates in alloy or with copper reaction 2The Mg intermetallic compound is less, can not play the effect that improves cutting ability, and Mg content can make when too many alloy plasticity descend, and therefore, the preferred content of magnesium is 0.6wt%~2.8wt% in the alloy.The solid solubility of calcium in brass is very little, and it has been to replenish the element of strengthening and improving the alloy cutting ability, and calcium is preferential and copper reaction generation intermetallic compound Cu in brass 5Ca, this intermetallic compound also can form free machining short chip breaking point in alloy, thereby the cutting ability of alloy is improved.Handle through homogenizing, the disperse in alloy of the formed intermetallic compound of calcic and copper is distributed, the alloy cutting ability is further enhanced.When calcium contents more after a little while, the Cu that solid solution generates in alloy or with copper reaction 5The Ca intermetallic compound is less, can not play and replenish the effect improve cutting ability, and calcium contents can make alloy plasticity descend when too many equally, and therefore, the preferred content of calcium is 0.2wt%~1.4wt% in the alloy.
The present invention is on the basis of existing common lead brass alloys; main use properties and requirement at leaded brass; and the requirement of combining environmental protection; in line with the principle that reduces cost; employing magnesium, calcium constituent replace environmental pollution and human body are endangered more serious lead element, thereby reach unleaded and cheap purpose.Compare with present no leaded brass with leaded brass, have following outstanding advantage and positively effect:
1. be a kind of unleaded brass material, can eliminate plumbous produce and use in harm that environment and human body are caused.
2. have good cutting performance, cold and hot formability, good mechanical property, have excellent corrosion resistance nature simultaneously again, can replace existing lead brass alloy, be applied to hot-water heating sanitary equipment and other various production fields.
3. the aboundresources of China's magnesium and calcium is cheap, can reduce cost significantly.
4. production technique is simple, and is controlled.
Alloy of the present invention is specially adapted to hot-water heating sanitary equipment and other various production fields.It is the new metallic material that helps HUMAN HEALTH and environment protection, also is the meeting of present widespread use causes the leaded brass of baneful influence to human body and environment another new type ideal substitute.
