Background technology
Magnesium alloy smelting guard method and magnesium alloy purifying method are the important component part in the magnesium alloy smelting method.Gas protection method is most widely used magnesium alloy smelting guard method at present.Gas protection method is at liquid magnesium alloy surface coverage one deck rare gas element or can generates the gas of dense oxidation film with reactive magnesium, thus the contacting of the oxygen in the secluding air and magnesium liquid.Industrial available shielding gas mainly contains CO 2, SO 2, SF 6, CHF-134a, Novec TM612 etc.
In these shielding gas, when melt temperature is higher than 700 ℃, CO 2And SO 2The surface film thickening, become fragile, cracking loses provide protection gradually easily; And SF 6Higher with the CHF-134a Greenhouse effect; Novec TM612 operations are more numerous and diverse, and processing unit is more.
The flux refining method is because of dust removal rate height, low, the easy to operate purifying method that generally adopts in the magnesium alloy production that becomes of cost, deficiencies such as but flux refining exists metal loss to increase, flux is mingled with, can not degass, especially when the melting magnesium-rare earth, strict to flux component.Because non-flux refining technology can remedy the deficiency of flux refining technology, thereby obtain further investigation, developed multiple purification style at present, as blowing gas purification, filtration, purification, vacuum-treat, ultrasonication, electromagnetic field purification and composite purification etc.
At present, the filtration, purification method because magnesia ceramics strainer fragility is big, production cost is high, is used also fewer now; The vacuum purification method, because the higher alloying elements such as Mg of saturated vapor pressure, vaporization losses very easily during vacuum melting, thus cause the fluctuation of metal loss and alloying constituent; Simultaneously vacuum melting equipment complexity, costliness, thereby the vacuum purification of magnesium alloy is handled at present as yet not large-scale application in industrial production; The ultrasonic purification method, because the limitation of ultrasonic generator, this method also is difficult to be applied to large batch of magnesium cleaning molten and handles.
At the melting method of AZ31 magnesium alloy, aspect melt protecting, adopt at present traditional flux protection aspect, flux brings is mingled with that to decompose the gas that is produced with flux be that environment pollutes; Aspect cleaning molten, traditional flux-refining, bring simultaneously be mingled with, pore and environmental pollution.
Summary of the invention
The present invention is mingled with for the melting that solves existing AZ31 magnesium alloy exists, pore and environmental pollution problems, provides a kind of AZ31 magnesium alloy not have the flux melting method.
The present invention adopts following technical scheme to realize: the AZ31 magnesium alloy does not have the flux melting method, and charging and feeding Tetrafluoroethane mixed gas dissolve after employing following steps: a, the crucible preheating; Carry out cost analysis after b, the alloying; C, rotary blowing argon gas refined magnesium alloy solution; Filter casting by the MgO floamed ceramics filtrating piece after d, the removal of impurities.Adopt advanced in the world Tetrafluoroethane mixed gas protected, the rotary blowing argon gas carries out the refining degassing processing in conjunction with the composite purifying process of ceramic filter to magnesium alloy fused mass, reduces the pollution to environment when improving magnesium alloy quality and purity.
The concrete steps that charging and feeding Tetrafluoroethane mixed gas dissolve after the crucible preheating are: after crucible is preheated to garnet, the MAG block, the aluminium block that add preheating, temperature is set to 650 ℃ and dissolves, described Tetrafluoroethane mixed gas is made up of pressurized air, carbonic acid gas and Tetrafluoroethane, and temperature feeds pressurized air and carbonic acid gas in time more than 400 ℃; Temperature reaches more than 500 ℃; then feed Tetrafluoroethane; the crucible preheating is in order to remove the steam of surface attachment; temperature is more than 400 ℃ the time; the magnesium alloy oxidation rate increases obviously; feed pressurized air and carbon dioxide gas mixture and just can well protect the melting of magnesium alloy; simultaneously can save the more expensive Tetrafluoroethane of price; more than 500 ℃ the time; need continue to feed the Tetrafluoroethane of protection better effects if for fear of the oxidization burning loss of fusion process, the mixed gas total flux that feeds in the furnace chamber is decided to be: the mixed gas volume that per minute feeds is in the burner hearth in the crucible on the liquid level; 5% of the following enclosed cavity volume of seal closure.Temperature is set to 650 ℃, helps accurately controlling the temperature of smelting furnace.
During the refining of rotary blowing argon gas, jet amount is 1.7-2.3L/min, and speed of rotation is 120 r/min-140r/min, and refining temperature is 710 ℃-730 ℃.Jet amount too hour, and is faint to the decontamination effect improving of liquation, and the destruction that can cause the molten surface protective membrane when excessive is caused the oxidation and the air-breathing decontamination effect improving that influences of liquation; Speed of rotation hour can not be broken into bubble very much the micro-bubble that disperse distributes, and decontamination effect improving is bad, and along with the increase of rotating speed, the slosh degree strengthens, and the air-breathing of melt also increases; Do not causing that liquid level acutely rocks under the protective membrane destructive situation, both big more decontamination effect improvings might as well.When temperature was 710 ℃-730 ℃, molten metal not only can not burn under the gas shield condition, and under this temperature condition, the flowability of molten metal is also fine, helped the bubble in the molten metal and be mingled with floating to liquid level.
Being cooled to 715 ℃-725 ℃ pours into a mould, the hole density of MgO floamed ceramics filtrating piece is 10PPi during cast, and the preheating temperature to 140 of MgO floamed ceramics filtrating piece ℃-160 ℃, MgO floamed ceramics filtrating piece hole density too hour, easy passage when molten metal passes through causes and can not pour into a mould or misrun; When hole density was too big, filter effect was bad.The control of the preheating temperature of teeming temperature and MgO floamed ceramics filtrating piece records through test of many times, and words molten metal and filter Quench that teeming temperature is crossed low or not preheating of filter are solidified, and block the filter hole, the situation that will generation can not pour into a mould or misrun.
The present invention adopts Tetrafluoroethane mixed gas protected down, the composite purifying process of rotary blowing argon gas and MgO ceramic filter, and the plasticity and toughness of raising magnesium alloy promote the development infiltration of magnesium alloy to deep processing fields such as press working, enlarge the Application of Magnesium scope; Greatly improved the purity and the mechanical property of AZ31 magnesium alloy, tensile strength and the elongation preceding 152.65Mpa and 3.2% of refining are never respectively brought up to 177.45Mpa and 8%, and amplification is respectively 16% and 150%, has reduced the pollution to environment simultaneously.
