Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of metallic substance and preparation method thereof, particularly a kind of magnesium alloy and preparation method thereof.
Background technology
Magnesium alloy has that light specific gravity, specific tenacity and specific rigidity are high, damping and amortization and machinability is good, thermal conductivity is good, the electromagnetic shielding ability strong and vibration damping is good and be easy to reclaim advantage, satisfy Aeronautics and Astronautics, modern automobile industry to loss of weight, energy-conservation requirement, be described as " green engineering material of 21 century ".
Wrought magnesium alloys mainly contains magnalium system at present, magnesium zinc system and magnesium rare earth-based alloy.The magnesium aluminum series alloy is to be most commonly used to the distortion system, and still, this class alloy has very strong basal plane texture, significant asymmetry and relative narrow processing temperature scope.Because 437 ℃ of the eutectic temperatures of magnalium, hot processing temperature is usually less than 350 ℃, and therefore, the speed of distortion is lower, and the products production cost is high.On the other hand, if select high temperature (above 350 ℃), the eutectic phase dissolving, cause alloy hot tearing and surface quality to reduce [K.U. Kainer, Magnesium Alloys and Technologies, WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH, Weiheim, 2003].Magnesium zinc system is not because contain aluminium, its tissue can pass through to add the effective refinement of Zr, yet this class alloy is easy to form the casting micropore, Hot Cracking is obvious in the operation of rolling, be difficult to welding, so this class alloy application in deformable material also seldom [H.E. Friedrich, B. L.Mordike, Magnesium Technology, Springer Press, Berlin, 2006].Compare with top two kinds, the performance of magnesium rare earth-based alloy is more outstanding, such as WE43(Mg-4.1Y-2.2Nd-1HRE-0.5Zr) and WE54(Mg-5.2Y-1.7Nd-1.7HRE-0.4Zr) alloy has good mechanical property and thermostability, but this class alloy is along with the increase of content of rare earth, the price of alloy obviously rises, and the more important thing is, along with the increase of content of rare earth, the amount showed increased of second phase particles, the corrosion resistance nature of alloy sharply descends.Therefore, develop the novel good deformation performance that has, the alloy of excellent corrosion resistance is to the application of magnesium alloy very necessary [F. Czerwinski, Magnesium injection molding, Springer press, Bolton, 2007].
