Background technique
In recent years, consider from earth environment etc., the light-weighted social desirability of the vehicle of automobile etc. grows to even greater heights.For This requirement is coped with, as the material of automobile, other than the steel material of steel plate etc., formability and coating baking hardening (bake hardening ability, hereinafter also referred to BH) is excellent, and the application of the aluminium alloy material of more light weight is increasing.
The aluminium alloy plate of the larger panel material of outer panels, inner panel as automobile etc., can typically illustrate Al- 6000 system of AA to JIS (hereinafter, being also only called 6000 systems) aluminium alloy plate of Mg-Si system.The 6000 line aluminium alloy plate, having must Formability must be ensured with low yield strength (low-intensity) when forming, the panel after forming is dried by coating containing the composition of Si, Mg Heating when artificial aging (hardening) processing of roasting processing etc., yield strength (intensity) improve, it can be ensured that the intensity of needs, i.e., Coating baking hardening is excellent.
In order to make the further lightweight of car body, among automobile component, not only in the panel material, also it is desirable to Expand aluminium in the automotive structural members of the armatures such as the skeleton material or bumper bar armature, door anti-collision joist of vehicle frame, beam column etc. etc. The application of alloy material.
These automotive structural members need further high intensity compared with the car panel.Therefore, in order to allow 6000 line aluminium alloy plate used in car panel material is stated, these skeleton materials or armature are suitable for, needs further to be allowed to high Intensity.
But reach such high intensity, composition and manufacture without substantially changing existing 6000 line aluminium alloy plate Condition does not hinder other characteristics such as formability also and is less easy.
All the time, as improve BH etc. in this way, as the panel material 6000 line aluminium alloy plates characteristic And the organizational controls carried out, propose the size of the dispersed granules of various control transition elements systems and the mode of number density.
For example, in patent document 1, as the panel material, proposition there are a kind of 6000 line aluminium alloy plates, make size The mean number density of 0.5 μm or more of dispersed granules is 3000~20000/mm2, so that press formability and bending machining Property improve.
The aluminium alloy plate, in embodiment, for plate after fabrication 3 months (after modifier treatment) when the room temperature of (90 days) Plate after effect, after carrying out artificial aging processing in 170 DEG C × 20 minutes after 2% strain imparting, 0.2% yield strength is high It is only the intensity of 205MPa or so.
In addition, in patent document 2, as the panel material, proposition has a kind of press formability and crimping processability excellent Different aluminium alloy plate, in order to miniaturize the average crystal grain diameter of recrystal grain to 45 μm hereinafter, and making dispersed granules Average diameter is 0.02~0.8 μm, and makes 1/μm of mean number3More than.In the patent document 2, also for plate Plate (after modifier treatment) after the room-temperature aging of 3 months (90 days) after fabrication, carry out deep-draw forming after, then through 180 DEG C × After artificial aging processing in 20 minutes, 0.2% yield strength height is only the intensity of 205MPa or so.
Existing technical literature

Patent document 1: No. 3802695 bulletin of Japan's patent
In the control of the size and number density of the transition elements system dispersed granules in existing 6000 line aluminium alloy plate, Also there is the case where using the panel material as purposes, artificial aging treated intensity, requirement has in terms of 0.2% yield strength The high intensity of 250MPa or more, the skeleton material or armature use on the way, intensity is insufficient.
In contrast, even if by the artificial aging treatment temperature high temperature to such as 200 DEG C or so high intensity, people The high intensity of working hour effect treated 0.2% yield strength cannot still reach 250MPa or more.
Moreover, strength reduction caused by treatment effeciency, funds, the deterioration of the coating of baking, the overaging etc. considers, The case where temperature of artificial aging (hardening) processing can also have boundary and restriction certainly, also be unable to high temperature.
Summary of the invention
The present invention does to solve such project, it is intended that the structural elements as the automobile etc. is used, mentions For a kind of composition and manufacturing condition without substantially changing existing 6000 line aluminium alloy plate, high intensity just can be allowed to 6000 line aluminium alloy plates.
In order to reach this purpose, high-strength aluminium alloy plate of the invention will be intended to, a kind of Al-Mg-Si system aluminium Alloy sheets, in terms of quality % respectively contain Mg:0.3~1.5%, Si:0.3~1.5%, and containing Mn:0.1~0.8%, Zr:0.04~0.20%, Cr:0.04~0.20%, Sc:0.02~0.1% one or more of as transition member Element, surplus are made of Al and inevitable impurity, the tissue of the plate thickness central part as the plate, and average crystal grain diameter is 100 μ M is hereinafter, and with the TEM-EDX of 50,000 times of multiplying power measurement, dispersed granules containing transition elements average equivalent circle Diameter is in the range of 50~300nm, also, equivalent circle diameter is in the transition elements system dispersed granules of the range of 20~400nm Average number density is 5/μm3More than.

Specific embodiment
Hereinafter, being specifically illustrated for the mode of implementation of the invention to each important document.,
(chemical component composition)
Firstly, below for Al-Mg-Si system (hereinafter also referred to as 6000 systems) aluminium alloy plate of the invention chemistry at It is grouped as and is illustrated.In the present invention, it is used as the skeleton material or armature, does not change existing composition, manufacture substantially Condition, and carry out high intensity.
In order in the composition of 6000 line aluminium alloy plates, in terms of quality %, contain respectively from project as composition aspect meets Have Mg:0.3~1.5%, Si:0.3~1.5%, and containing Mn:0.1~0.8%, Zr:0.04~0.20%, Cr:0.04~ 0.20%, Sc:0.02~0.1% one or more of be used as transition elements, surplus by Al and inevitably it is miscellaneous Texture at.In addition, the % of the content of each element indicates the meaning of entirely quality %.
Illustrate below each element in above-mentioned 6000 line aluminium alloy containing range and meaning or allowance.
Mg:0.3~1.5%
Mg facilitates solution strengthening together with Si, and in the artificial aging processing of coating baking processing etc., is formed with Help intensity raising precipitation, play age hardening capability, be for obtaining the structural elements as automobile etc. needed for The necessary element of the yield strength wanted.
When Mg content is lower than 0.3%, intensity is insufficient.On the other hand, if Mg content is higher than 1.5%, shear band when cold rolling It is easy to form, the reason of becoming crackle when rolling.Therefore, Mg content is 0.3% or more, preferably 0.4% or more, and 1.5% hereinafter, preferably 1.2% range below.
Si:0.3~1.5%
Si facilitates solution strengthening and in the artificial aging processing of coating baking processing etc., is formed with together with Mg Help intensity raising precipitation, play age hardening capability, be for obtaining the structural elements as automobile etc. needed for The necessary element for the intensity (yield strength) wanted.
When Si content is lower than 0.3%, intensity is insufficient.On the other hand, if Si content is higher than 1.5%, coarse change is formed Object is closed, ductility is deteriorated.Therefore, Si content is 0.3% or more, preferably 0.7% or more, and 1.5% hereinafter, preferably 1.4% range below.
Mn、Zr、Cr、Sc
The transition elements of Mn, Zr, Cr, Sc are the main members for constituting transition elements system dispersed granules specified in the present invention Element.It forms transition elements system dispersed granules in the stage and final plate of ingot bar, and crystal grain is made to miniaturize and propose intensity It is high.In addition, these transition elements system dispersed granules, such as given to this invention, if being allowed to miniaturization to nanoscale, can also make In the leading portion of artificial aging processing, processing hardening when former material plate to be configured to structural elements is improved, with the structure after forming The raising of artificial age-hardening's ability (BH) of component combines, and significantly improves the intensity after BH.
If the content of Mn, Zr, Cr, Sc are very few, the number density of the dispersed granules is reduced, when plate is shaped to structural elements Processing hardening and artificial age-hardening's ability (BH) reduce, the increase of yield strength resulting from reduces, described Synergy becomes smaller, and treated that intensity can not increase to level required by structural elements for artificial aging.
On the other hand, if Mn, Zr, Cr, Sc content are excessive, coarse compound easy to form easily becomes destruction Starting point makes ductility and strength deterioration instead.
Therefore, containing Mn:0.1~0.8%, Zr:0.04~0.20%, Cr:0.04~0.20%, Sc:0.02~0.1% One or more of.
Other elements
In addition, in the present invention, in order to enable aluminum alloy to plate high intensity, (but can also be free of containing Cu:0.5% or less 0%), one or more of Ag:0.01~0.2%, Sn:0.001~0.1%.
Subsidiary one mentions, because these elements have the effect of making plate high intensity jointly, is considered as the same of high intensity Element, but its specific mechanism are imitated, has common part certainly, also there is different parts.
Cu improves intensity by solution strengthening etc..Ag for improve artificial age-hardening's ability (BH) it is useful, than Under conditions of the artificial aging processing of low temperature, short time, have in the opposite crystal grain of compound for promoting area board group Zhi GP etc. The effect of precipitation.Sn has the effect that, captures atom vacancy, thus inhibits the diffusion of Mg and Si at room temperature, inhibits room temperature Under intensity increase (room-temperature aging), in artificial aging processing, discharge the vacancy of capture, promote the diffusion of Mg and Si, improve BH.
But if the respective content of these elements is excessive, coarse compound etc. is formed, the manufacture of plate is difficult, intensity It is reduced with bendability, in addition, corrosion resistance also reduces.If especially Cu content is excessive, bendability is significantly reduced. Therefore, contain these elements sometimes, be each upper limit value content below.
Impurity
Other Fe, V, Ti, B, Zn etc., be easy it is mixed among waste material of melting raw material as ingot bar etc. can not The impurity avoided, preferably few aspect, but also for the efficient activity of melting refinement, and be allowed to for the specification of JIS etc. it is permitted Content.For example, being preferably 0.5% or less about Fe.
(tissue)
After becoming the chemical component composition that above 6000 are alloy, in the present invention, it is specified that this 6000 is that aluminium closes The tissue of golden plate.That is, so that the average crystal grain diameter of the plate thickness central part of the plate it is tiny it is (small) premised on, make described fine Transition elements system dispersed granules real mass exists, and provides its average equivalent circular diameter and average number density together.
These organization prescribeds are formed and manufacturing condition with not changing existing aluminium alloy substantially, or reduce formability Premised on, it is to realize the important and necessary means of high intensity for improving the BH of 6000 line aluminium alloy plates.
Average crystal grain diameter:
Keep the average crystal grain diameter of plate thickness central part tiny (small), becoming makes the fine transition elements system disperse grain The effect of son is able to the precondition played.That is, the grain structure of plate thickness central part, is average crystal grain diameter at 100 μm or less Fine grain structure when, the effect of the fine transition elements system dispersed granules starts to play.The crystalline substance of plate thickness central part Grain tissue, when being higher than 100 μm of coarse grain structure for average crystal grain diameter, the fine transition elements system dispersed granules Effect halve or reduce.It means that the miniaturization of crystal grain, it may be said that be to guarantee fine transition elements system dispersed granules The precondition that effect plays.
Described crystal grain diameter in the present invention is the longitudinal section (plate cut off along rolling direction in the rolling direction of plate Section) in, the crystal grain diameter of the rolling direction of plate thickness central part.The measurement of the average crystal grain diameter is to pass through rolling direction Line-intercept method evaluated.That is, being by extracting the longitudinal section from the plate quenched through T4 being configured to before structural elements Plate thickness central part sample, to sample surface carry out mechanical lapping after, tetrafluoro boric acid: in water=5:400 solution, with voltage 30V, 20~30 DEG C of solution temperature, the progress electrolytic etching of 60~90 seconds time.Then, by using 50 times of light of polarizing film Microscope is learned, for the arbitrary measurement position of plate thickness central part due in view of the deviation of the material of plate, passes through 10 visuals field The visual observation of (every 5,1 visual field, every 500 μm of 1 wire length) carries out.
Transition elements system dispersed granules:
Using above average crystal grain diameter as premise, the tissue of the plate thickness central part as plate, with 50,000 times of multiplying power TEM-EDX measurement, range that the average equivalent circular diameters of transition elements system dispersed granules are in 50~300nm, also, equivalent Circular diameter is 5/μm in the average number density of the transition elements system dispersed granules of the range of 20~400nm3More than.
In the tissue of 6000 line aluminium alloy plates before artificial aging processing, make the average equivalent of transition elements system dispersed granules Circular diameter is the range of 50~300nm, also, has the fine transition elements of the equivalent circle diameter of the range of 20~400nm It is that dispersed granules exist as much as possible, and 5/μm of density that average out3(exist more) when above, is then mentioned outside BH personality It is high.
Although the mechanism that these transition elements system dispersed granules improve BH is still not clear, but be speculated as prestrain imparting When Work Hardening Characteristic raising, due to assign prestrain and the dislocation that imports for being equivalent at the heat of baking painting treatment Recovery when reason inhibits, and the transition elements system dispersed granules of the size and number density are especially helpful.Moreover, such micro- Thin transition elements system dispersed granules, the effect for also having the formability that former material plate will not be hindered to be configured to structural elements excellent in this way Fruit.
The transition elements system dispersed granules with average equivalent circular diameter, or the equivalent circle diameter with the range Transition elements system dispersed granules, heating when not only being handled via artificial aging make yield strength (intensity) improve, but also Processing hardening when shaping from the former material plate of its leading portion to automotive structural members improves.The fine transition elements as a result, It is dispersed granules, the raising of processing hardening when being shaped by former material plate to automotive structural members, and the automobile knot after forming The synergy of the raising of artificial age-hardening's ability of structure component, and significantly improve BH.
Otherwise the average equivalent circular diameter of either transition elements system dispersed granules is as low as lower than 50nm, in addition, coarsening And it is higher than 300nm, the synergy that the intensity after the BH improves all can not play or become smaller.
In addition, the fine transition elements system dispersed granules of the equivalent circle diameter of the range with 20~400nm are averaged Number density is lower than 5/μm3When, the number of the fine transition elements system dispersed granules is very few, and the synergy can not be sent out It waves.In the present invention, no matter large or small (equivalent circle diameter), not providing can be by the TEM-EDX of 50,000 times of multiplying power measurement The average number density of transition elements system dispersed granules.
In addition, if there is the fine mistake of the equivalent circle diameter of the range of the 20~400nm from the boundary of manufacture The upper limit for crossing the average number density of first prime system dispersed granules is 100/μm3Left and right.
Why the average number density of transition elements system dispersed granules fine in this way tails off, and reason is the transition member constituted Cellulose content is insufficient.But in addition to this, though constitute transition elements content content it is appropriate, due to plate preparation method the problem of, Also the transition elements system dispersed granules for having generation cannot be grown, and equivalent circle diameter is too small (meticulous) without 20nm, or vice versa Excessively coarsening and a possibility that be higher than 400nm etc..
The measurement of transition elements system dispersed granules:
The fine transition elements system of the equivalent circle diameter of the range with 20~400nm specified in the present invention is more Shot average number density (it is a/μm3), by the EDX that possesses for identifying (identification) dispersed granules, (energy dispersion type X is penetrated Line optical spectroscopy) function 50,000 times of multiplying power TEM (transmission electron microscope: FE-TEM) measurement.
It is the milled sheet of hot rolled plate and cold-reduced sheet etc. as the plate of measurement object, was implementing solutionizing processing and quenching Processing etc. it is quenched after (T4 material), processing hardening also becomes problem, thus for for being shaped by bending machining etc. plus Work is the aluminium alloy plate before used structural elements.
Specific measurement method is to extract the sample of plate thickness central part from the T4 material before the forming, TEM is being made After film sample, by the macrograph of the TEM shooting plate thickness central part of 50,000 times of multiplying powers, image procossing is carried out to it, For (total area of field of view is 4 μm in the measurement visual field2More than) it can identify can measure with equivalent circle diameter for (identification) The equivalent circle diameter of transition elements system dispersed granules carry out whole measurements respectively.
Then, the average equivalent circular diameter of transition elements system dispersed granules is measured, and measures the model with 20~400nm The transition elements system dispersed granules of the equivalent circle diameter enclosed average number density (it is a/μm3)。
Here, in the measurement of the average equivalent circular diameter and average number density, for being mentioned from arbitrary plate thickness central part 10 samples taken carry out, and are equalized, and the transition elements system of the equivalent circle diameter as the range with 20~400nm is more Shot average number density (it is a/μm3)。
Described transition elements system dispersed granules, are the visuals field for the plate thickness central part by tem observation in the present invention, are used X-ray spectrometry device (EDX) is analyzed, and identifies the transition containing one or more of Mn, Cr, Zr, Sc accordingly First prime system dispersed granules (precipitate) identify other precipitates (dispersed granules) without these transition elements.Carry out this knowledge When other, the amount containing one or more of Mn, Cr, Zr, Sc, as long as the amount that can be detected by the EDX is (micro- Amount), if from the precipitate in the visual field, by the EDX be capable of detecting when one of Mn, Cr, Zr, Sc or It is two or more, it is all transition elements system dispersed granules described in the present invention no matter then its amount.
Here, so-called equivalent circle diameter, is exactly using the EDX, identifying (can identify), it is containing Mn, Cr, Zr, Sc One or more of transition elements system dispersed granules, image procossing is carried out to this dispersed granules, calculates TEM view The area of each transition elements system dispersed granules in open country, being converted into the diameter of bowlder of the same area, (circle of equal value is straight Diameter) (circle equivalent diameter).
(manufacturing method)
Then, it is illustrated below for the manufacturing method of aluminium alloy plate of the present invention.Aluminium alloy plate of the present invention, manufacturing process It itself is that conventional method or well known method homogenize after casting above-mentioned 6000 is tied to form the aluminium alloy ingot bar being grouped as Heat treatment, and implement hot rolling, cold rolling and become defined plate thickness, then implement solutionizing quenching treatment etc. modifier treatment and make It makes.
But in these manufacturing processes, in order to obtain present invention provide that tissue (transition elements system dispersed granules it is flat The equal crystal grain diameter of equal number density peace), as be described hereinafter, to take preferred manufacturing condition.
(fusing, casting cooling speed)
Firstly, adjusting fusing to the melting Al in above-mentioned 6000 set member compositing range in fusing, casting process Alloy is suitable for that the common melting and casting method of continuously casting rolling, semi-continuous casting method (DC casting) etc. is selected to be cast It makes.
(homogenize heat treatment)
Secondly, before hot rolling, implementing the heat treatment that homogenizes for the aluminium alloy ingot bar cast.This homogenizes It is heat-treated (homogeneous heat treatment), in addition to general object, i.e. tissue homogenizes and (eliminates the segregation in the crystal grain in ingot bar tissue) In addition, it is important that miniaturize transition elements system dispersed granules to nanoscale and in other words exactly avoid its coarsening.
Therefore, equal heat condition can be a homogeneous heat treatment, be also possible to secondary soaking or two sections of soaking, but its heating, Cooling procedure needs to control.
So-called secondary soaking is exactly 200 DEG C of temperature below being first cooled to including room temperature after first time soaking Degree, then reheated, it maintains after a certain period of time, to start hot rolling with this temperature.In contrast, so-called two sections of soaking, be exactly Although being cooled down after first time soaking, be not cooled to 200 DEG C hereinafter, but higher temperature stop it is cooling after, with this After temperature maintains, directly start hot rolling with this temperature or after being again heated to higher temperature.
Soaking or the secondary first time hankered or two sections of equal heat conditions of the first segment hankered, be 500 DEG C with The temperature range of fusing point is gone up and be lower than, in order to inhibit the coarsening of transition elements system dispersed granules, is controlled in defined ruler It is suitable for selecting from 1 minute or more and in the range of 1 hour retention time below under very little and number density.
Heating rate when the first segment soaking of the first time or two sections of soaking of this soaking or secondary soaking is 100 DEG C/instant heating of hr or more, it is precipitated to make transition elements system dispersed granules nanoscale as fine to described as possible, preferably Accelerate heating rate.It is lower than 100 DEG C/hr if heating rate is slow, transition elements system dispersed granules coarsening, having cannot to the greatest extent can Can the nanoscale and a possibility that be precipitated.
On the other hand, the cooling velocity after the first time soaking of secondary soaking, it is cold after the first segment soaking of two sections of soaking But speed is 40 DEG C/hr hereinafter, preferably 30 DEG C/hr outside furnace hereinafter, it is preferred that do not let cool, but lets cool in furnace, and normal Rule method is on the contrary, keep cooling velocity as small as possible (slow).
The precipitation and growth for the transition elements system dispersed granules for promoting the nanoscale in cooling fine as a result, will It is controlled in defined size and number density.
In addition, primary in thermal process, cooling velocity after a homogeneous heat treatment is it is also preferred that as small as possible (slow) 40 DEG C/the hr or less.
Second or the equal heat condition of second segment, preferably more than hot rolling start temperature and 500 DEG C of temperature ranges below, The range of 30 minutes or more retention times selects, and reheats first time soaking, ingot bar after cooling, is cooled to hot rolling and starts temperature Degree, or it is again heated to hot rolling start temperature, it is kept in this neighborhood.Alternatively, it is also possible to which the ingot bar after first segment soaking is cooled to Hot rolling start temperature is kept in this neighborhood.This second or second segment soaking temperature, than for the first time or first segment soaking temperature It is low.In addition, to the time of hot rolling start temperature after control soaking, can also obtain same effect in primary heat condition.
In addition, about the cooling velocity for the second time or after the heating of the soaking temperature of second segment, soaking, because described First time or the equal thermal process of first segment in form the transition elements system dispersed granules of desired morphology, so if it is meet with The scope of the lower hot-rolled condition, then do not need that heating rate and cooling velocity is especially made to be in identical condition and range.
(hot rolling)
Homogenize heat treatment ingot bar hot rolling, according to the plate thickness of rolling, by the roughing operation of ingot bar (slab) It is constituted with finish to gauge process.It is suitable for the milling train using reversible or tandem etc. in this roughing operation and finish to gauge process.
The start temperature of hot roughing as hot rolling start temperature, it is primary in thermal process preferably 350 DEG C or more and Solidus temperature is hereinafter, be preferably 350 DEG C or more and 400 DEG C or less in secondary equal thermal process.The start temperature of hot roughing is low When 350 DEG C, any its hot rolling of thermal process material is difficult, otherwise be higher than 400 DEG C, in secondary equal thermal process material, and transition First coarse precipitation of prime system dispersed granules, cannot nanoscale as fine to described as possible and height a possibility that be precipitated.In addition, about one Secondary equal thermal process material makes soaking time after the progress of defined time range, carries out hot rolling immediately, so as to inhibit transition first The coarsening of prime system dispersed granules carries out hot rolling in the state of maintaining the transition elements system dispersed granules of desired form.
After such hot roughing, preferably carry out terminating temperature in the hot finish to gauge of 300~350 DEG C of range.The hot finish to gauge End temperature it is too low and when being lower than 300 DEG C, rolling loads are high, and productivity reduces.On the other hand, in order not to a large amount of residual process It organizes and becomes recrystallized structure, when improving the end temperature of hot finish to gauge thus, if its temperature is higher than 350 DEG C, transition elements A possibility that being the coarse precipitation of dispersed granules, nanoscale as fine to described as possible cannot be allowed to and be precipitated height.
(annealing of hot rolled plate)
The hot rolled plate does not need to anneal (black annealing) before cold rolling, but can be implemented yet.
(cold rolling)
In cold rolling, above-mentioned hot rolled plate is rolled, is fabricated to the cold-reduced sheet (also including coiled material) of desired final plate thickness.But It is, in order to miniaturize crystal grain more, it is desirable to cold rolling rate is 30% or more, in addition for purpose same as the black annealing, Intermediate annealing can be carried out between cold rolling pass.
(solutionizing and quenching treatment)
After cold rolling, solutionizing processing is carried out, the quenching treatment of room temperature is next proceeded to.At this solutionizing quenching Reason, can be used common continuous heat-treatment lines.But the sufficient solid solution capacity of each element of Mg, Si etc. in order to obtain, preferably After carrying out solutionizing processing under 550 DEG C or more and melting temperature temperature below, make to the average cooling rate 20 of room temperature DEG C/sec or more.At a temperature of lower than 550 DEG C, solutionizing handle previous existence at the compound of Mg-Si system etc. be dissolved again not Sufficiently, being dissolved Mg amount and solid solution Si amount reduces.
In addition, mainly generating the precipitate of Mg-Si system in cooling when average cooling rate is lower than 20 DEG C/sec, it is dissolved Mg A possibility that amount and solid solution Si amount reduce, cannot ensure the solid solution capacity of Si and Mg is still high.In order to ensure the cooling velocity, quenching Selection uses the air-cooled of fan etc., the water cooling means and condition of spraying, spray, impregnating etc. respectively for processing.
(Pre-aging treatment: reheating processing)
Be quenched after such solutionizing processing and after being cooled to room temperature, preferably to cold rolling within 1 hour Plate carries out Pre-aging treatment (reheating processing).To room temperature quenching treatment after, if starting to Pre-aging treatment, (heating is opened Begin) room temperature i time it is too long, then due to room-temperature aging, cause the Mg-Si cluster of rich Si to generate, it is difficult to make Mg's and Si Good Mg-Si cluster is balanced to increase.Therefore, the shorter the room temperature i time the better, solutionizing and quenching treatment and reheat Processing, can also be carried out continuously, the time of lower limit does not set especially almost without the time difference.
The Pre-aging treatment preferably makes retention time 5 hours or more at 60~120 DEG C and 40 hours or less and carries out It keeps.The good Mg-Si cluster of balance of Mg and Si can be formed as a result,.
If pre-age temperature is lower than 10 hours lower than 60 DEG C or retention time, the case where with no Pre-aging treatment Equally, it is difficult to inhibit the Mg-Si cluster of richness Si, it is difficult to which the Mg-Si cluster for making the Mg and Si keep balance increases, and baking applies Yield strength after dress is easy to be lower.
On the other hand, preageing condition is higher than 120 DEG C, or more than 40 hours, the production quantity that core is precipitated was excessive, toasts coating Intensity when preceding bending machining becomes excessively high, and bendability is easy deterioration.
Hereinafter, enumerating embodiment further illustrates the present invention, the present invention is not limited certainly by following embodiments, can The range of aftermentioned objective can also suitably be changed implementation before meeting, these are all contained in technical scope of the invention It is interior.
