General.
The chemical property of magnesium alloy own is relatively active, and its electronegativity is relatively big, in smelting process easily with external agency (such as oxygen
Gas) reaction generates oxide, if these oxides are involved in magnesium alloy fused mass by becoming being mingled with in ingot casting, in turn results in workpiece
Mechanical properties decrease.Additionally, the oxide of magnesium itself loosens, consistency coefficient is little, and they are when magnesium alloy fused mass occurs oxidation
Can not play the effect of protection isolation, therefore melt can burn further.This melt scaling loss not only makes execute-in-place
There is danger in environment, and causes raw material losses serious, and final acquisition cc billet surface quality is poor.Traditional magnesium alloy cast
Method is difficult to avoid that melt burning, oxidation behavior, and cc billet surface quality is poor, and segregation layer is thicker, needs the later stage to carry out machining
(such as turning), therefore the method easily causes a large amount of waste.Therefore, R and D acquisition high-quality magnesium alloy strand technology has
High basic research is worth and wide practical prospect.
At present, the key technology such as the efficient melting technique of domestic magnesium alloy materials and equipment, remain restriction magnesium alloy materials
The bottleneck of industrialization.China's existing magnesium alloy circle ingot casting technology of preparing, still continues to use the bench of burners fusing of group in early days, admixture solvent
Refine, employing SF6 gas carry out protecting, applying graphite lubrication semi-continuous casting technology ingot casting, produce low (the disposable ingot casting of effect
Number 1), ingot casting rough surface, segregation thickness, coarse grains, need turning peeling use.Existence compared with Foreign Advanced Lerel
Bigger gap.
