This heat-resistant magnesium alloy has a metallographic structure containing Mg crystal grains; platelike precipitates having precipitated within the Mg crystal grains; and grain boundary crystallizates having crystallized at boundaries of the Mg crystal grains and forming a microscopically continuous network. By virtue of the presence of the platelike precipitates within the Mg crystal grains, the transfer of dislocation within the Mg crystal grains is blocked to thereby restrict any deformation. Further, by virtue of the microscopically continuous presence of network forming grain boundary crystallizates at boundaries of the Mg crystal grains, the grain boundary strength is enhanced. This magnesium alloy having its Mg crystal grain interiors andboundaries simultaneously strengthened retains high mechanical properties even in high temperature region.

Embodiment
Below explanation is used to implement the best mode of heat-resistant magnesium alloy of the present invention (hereinafter to be referred as " magnesium alloy ").
Magnesium alloy of the present invention contains magnesium (Mg), the first alloying element M1, the second alloying element M2, the calcium (Ca) of principal constituent, have contain Mg crystal grain, separate out tabular precipitate to the particle of Mg crystal grain, in the crystal boundary crystallization of this Mg crystal grain and form the metal structure of the crystal boundary crystallisate of successive network on the microcosmic.
In the magnesium alloy of the present invention, tabular precipitate is present in the Mg intragranular.Tabular precipitate hinders in the intragranular dislocation moving of Mg.The crystalline distortion is moved on slipping plane by dislocation and is taken place.Therefore, can be parallel to hexagonal crystal Mg crystalline c face, be Mg crystallization { the tabular precipitate of 001} face.Illustrated that the thickness of slab of tabular precipitate is that 2~20nm, thickness of slab are thick more, then mechanical characteristics improves more.
In addition, precipitate can comprise the Laves' phases compound of C15 type crystal structure.Its reason is, can predict Mg crystalline c face and C15 structure { the 111} face is easy to form interface stable mutually on the crystallography, promotes the formation of tabular precipitate.The compound that constitutes the precipitate with this crystal structure can be M1-Ca based compound and/or Mg-M1-Ca based compound.
Magnesium alloy of the present invention also can further have micropartical in the particle of Mg crystal grain.Micropartical is the Mg intragranular, be present in substantially tabular precipitate around.Even if can think that this micropartical is present in the Mg intragranular, also can directly not help to improve the intragranular intensity of Mg.Yet, atomic existence relevant with the generation of precipitate (back narration), micropartical for example contains the micropartical of M2 for M1-M2 based compound etc.Illustrated that micropartical is for roughly sphere, particle diameter are about 10~15nm.
In the magnesium alloy of the present invention, the crystal boundary crystallisate that forms successive network on the microcosmic exists in the crystal boundary crystallization of Mg crystal grain.For example, even if from magnesium alloy of the present invention, remove the composition of the second alloying element M2, also there is macroscopic view to go up the crystal boundary crystallisate in the crystal boundary crystallization of Mg crystal grain, form the situation of network simultaneously.But, in the magnesium alloy that does not contain Mg, in the crystal boundary crystallisate that forms network, do not observe the continuity of microcosmic.On the other hand, in the magnesium alloy of the present invention, by containing M2, the crystal boundary crystallisate forms successive network on the microcosmic.Continuous on microcosmic by network, the area or the number of die of the crystal grain boundary of the compound of the network of reduction formation greatly.As a result, the intensity of crystal boundary improves, is reinforced.At this moment, the network of crystal boundary crystallisate is wished to cover and (will be worth abbreviation " fraction of coverage of network ") more than 70% in the Mg crystal particle crystal boundary that presents wire about the 400 μ m * 600 μ m of magnesium alloy on the regional cross section.
In addition, the crystal boundary crystallisate can comprise the C14 type crystal structure and the Laves' phases compound of C36 type crystal structure mixed crystal mutually.C14 type crystal structure and C36 type crystal structure be hexagonal system each other, is easy to form the mixed crystal phase, is ideal therefore.The Laves' phases compound of mixed crystal phase is unqualified, because near monocrystalline, so the crystal boundary crystallisate is continuous on microcosmic, the area of the crystal grain boundary of the compound of formation network or number of die reach minimum.
In addition, to comprise the Mg-M1-Ca based compound be ideal to the crystal boundary crystallisate.Mg 2Ca is a C14 type crystal structure, infers by the M1 solid solution in Mg 2Among the Ca, the mixed crystal of formation C14 type crystal structure and C36 type crystal structure mutually.At this moment, mixed crystal is compared to C36 type crystal structure in mutually, can contains C14 type crystal structure more.
Have the as above magnesium alloy of the present invention of metal structure and contain magnesium (Mg), the first alloying element M1, the second alloying element M2 and the calcium (Ca) of principal constituent.
The first alloy M1 can use at least a kind that is selected from aluminium (Al) and the nickel (Ni).Al and Ni all form compound with the Ca reaction, are the elements that presents this structure of C15 type pressgang, at the Mg that presents this structure of C14 type pressgang 2Under the condition of Ca for domination, by Al and/or Ni solid solution in Mg 2Among the Ca, the mixed crystal of formation C14 type this structure of pressgang and this structure of C36 type pressgang mutually.
The second alloying element M2 can use at least a kind that is selected from manganese (Mn), barium (Ba), chromium (Cr) and iron (Fe).Can use the reason of these elements to change by the tissue of magnesium alloy of the present invention in process of cooling as M2 describes.
Common when casting comprises the castings of magnesium alloy of the present invention solidifies visible 3 temperature stagnation points the cooling curve of operation (air cooling), and (making each temperature is T1, T2 and T3, T1>T3, T2>T3).When temperature of melt metal reaches liquidus temperature (solidify more than the temperature of beginning: T1=600 ℃ below 620 ℃), primary crystal Mg crystallization.In addition, during measurable arrival T2, M1 and M2 react, and produce the micropartical that generates the M1-M2 based compound of compound as high temperature.Then, when reaching eutectic temperature T3, along with the crystal boundary crystallisate crystallization of eutectic Mg, formation network.When the micropartical of castings was carried out ultimate analysis, the result was compared to theoretical value as can be known and contains more M2.That is, can predict and be compared in the more cryogenic zone of T3, M1 discharges from micropartical (M1-M2 based compound), and the M1 of discharge is along with the aggegation that is dissolved in the intragranular Ca of Mg, forms compound with Ca and separates out.
Therefore, the second alloying element M2 be necessary under being higher than the high temperature of T3 with first alloying element M1 reaction in, be difficult to be dissolved in Mg.From this reason,, in transition element, can use at least a kind that is selected from manganese (Mn), barium (Ba), chromium (Cr) and iron (Fe) as second alloying element.These elements have equal extent atomic radius, adopt similar crystal structure, and then in the zone of higher temperatures, only between T1 and T3, generate compound particularly with M1.
Illustrated that magnesium alloy of the present invention contains above-mentioned first alloying element and second alloying element at least a kind separately.A kind of in the 1st element and the 2nd element can be contained respectively, several any one or both wherein can also be contained.
Magnesium alloy of the present invention is when inciting somebody to action all as 100 quality %, preferably contain the following Ca of the above 4 quality % of 2 quality %, make the above-mentioned first alloying element M1 be 0.9 or more 1.1 below, contain the above-mentioned second alloying element M2 below the 0.6 quality % more than the 0.3 quality %, remain and be Mg and unavoidable impurities with respect to the mass ratio (M1/Ca) of Ca.Perhaps, magnesium alloy of the present invention will be in the time will all being 100 atom %, preferably contain the following Ca of the above 2.470 atom % of 1.235 atom %, make the above-mentioned first alloying element M1 be 1.34 or more 1.63 below, contain the above-mentioned second alloying element M2 below the 0.27 atom % more than the 0.13 atom %, remain and be Mg and unavoidable impurities with respect to the atomic ratio (M1/Ca) of Ca.
Is less than 0.9 when (promptly with atomic ratio measuring less than 1.34) at M1/Ca with mass ratio, and the content of Ca is many, castibility worsens, and is therefore not preferred.On the other hand, when M1/Ca surpassed for 1.1 (promptly surpassing 1.63 with atomic ratio measuring) with mass ratio, the crystal boundary crystallisate is difficult to become the mixed crystal phase, is easy to form the crystal grain that only is made of this structure of C36 type pressgang, is separated, and was therefore not preferred.And then C36 type crystal structure is exposed to high temperature following time, is easy to the phase transition of C15 type crystal structure (ScriptaMaterialia 51 (204) 1005-1010).C15 type crystal structure is easy to take place block aggegation in high-temperature area, can not form successive crystallisate network on the microcosmic, so the pyritous mechanical characteristics reduces significantly.And then preferred L 1/Ca value is (that is being 1.42~1.56 with atomic ratio measuring) below 1.05 more than 0.95.
Proportional during when containing of the second alloying element M2 less than 0.3 quality % (i.e. 0.13 atom %), the M1 that constitutes precipitate in process of cooling (process of setting) is kept as compound, precipitate can not be separated out fully, and is therefore not preferred.In addition, residual because a lot of M1 does not combine with M2, be easy to form the crystal grain that only has this structure of C36 type pressgang that does not adopt the mixed crystal structure as the crystal boundary crystallisate, be separated, therefore not preferred.On the other hand, containing of M2 is proportional when surpassing 0.6 quality % (i.e. 0.27 atom %), and the compound that contains M2 is separated out to the crystal boundary crystallisate, cuts off network, and is therefore not preferred.Preferred M2 contains proportional following being limited to more than the 0.34 quality % (i.e. 0.15 atom %).Be limited on the preferred M2 below the 0.55 quality % (i.e. 0.25 atom %), more preferably below the 0.5 quality % (i.e. 0.23 atom %).
Ca is the element that forms C14 and this structure of C36 type pressgang with Mg.Containing of Ca is proportional during less than 2 quality % (i.e. 1.235 atom %), can't generate precipitate or crystal boundary crystallisate fully, and the raising effect of heat-resistant quality is insufficient, and be therefore not preferred.On the other hand, when containing of Ca is proportional when surpassing 4 quality % (i.e. 2.470 atom %), the growing amount of precipitate or crystal boundary crystallisate is too much, can go wrong in post-treatment, and is therefore not preferred.Preferred Ca to contain proportional be the above 3.5 quality % of 2.5 quality % following (promptly below the above 2.16 atom % of 1.54 atom %).
Magnesium alloy of the present invention is not limited to common gravitational casting or compression casting, can also be through the die-cast person.In addition, cast employed mold and also be not limited to sand mo(u)ld, metal pattern etc.The speed of cooling of solidifying operation also is not particularly limited, and can put cold in atmospheric environment.
The purposes of magnesium alloy of the present invention is representative with the field of universe, military affairs, aviation, relates to various fields such as automobile, household appliances.Most preferably the goods that use under its thermotolerance of performance, hot environment for example use magnesium alloy of the present invention in engine, variator, idle call compressor or their the related goods that disposed in the engine cabin of automobile.Can enumerate the cylinder head of oil engine, cylinder body, oil pan, the transmission case that the impeller charger of oil engine uses with compressor, automobile etc. etc. particularly.
The embodiment of heat-resistant magnesium alloy of the present invention more than has been described, the present invention and non-limiting above-mentioned embodiment.Can in the scope that does not break away from purport of the present invention, implement with the change of the carrying out that those skilled in the art were implemented, the variety of way of improvement.
