Embodiment
Hereinafter, the composition of 7000 related line aluminium alloy extrded materials of the invention is described in detail.
The aluminium alloy extruded product of the present invention, its alloy structure contain Zn:Mass %, Mg of 5.8 mass %~8.0:1.2 matter Measure mass %, Cu of %~2.0:Mass %, Si of 0.4 mass %~1.2:Below 0.20 mass %, Fe:Below 0.20 mass %, Ti:0.01 mass %~0.1 mass %, Mn, Cr and Zr total amount are limited to below 0.10 mass %, and surplus is by Al and can not keep away The impurity exempted from is formed.
In the alloy structure, Zn be in order to ensure heat treatment after intensity and add, it is necessary to add 5.8 mass % with On.But if Zn content can reduce more than 8.0 mass %, Squeezing ground.Therefore, Zn contents need for 5.8 mass %~ 8.0 mass %, it is preferably set to the mass % of 5.9 mass %~7.6.
Mg and Zn added also for the intensity after ensuring heat treatment, it is necessary to add more than 1.2 mass %.But It is, if Mg content can reduce more than 2.0 mass %, Squeezing ground, thus it is not preferred.Therefore, Mg contents are needed for 1.2 matter Measure the mass % of %~2.0.
Ti is added for the miniaturization of ingot bar tissue.If Ti contents are less than 0.01 mass %, miniaturization Effect is insufficient, if greater than 0.1 mass %, then saturation can occur, it is possible to crystallize out huge compound.Therefore, Ti contains Amount is needed for the mass % of 0.01 mass %~0.1.
Typically in 7000 line aluminium alloy extrded materials, in order to improve stress corrosion resistant cracking and intensity, Mn, Cr, Zr Mass % of 0.15 mass % of addition total etc. transition elements~0.5 or so, is thus formed in the threadiness stretched in the direction of extrusion Tissue.But if implementing anodized to whole cross section for the surface of the extrded material of bacillar structure, it can occur Anodized envelope produces striped color inequality etc the problem of.
Furthermore in above-mentioned conventional patent document 10, by adding the Cr and Zr of scheduled volume to alloy, and before extrusion Special heat treatment is added afterwards, only by the Surface Recrystallization of extrded material, thus prevents the irregular colour of anodic oxidation coating. But if it is housing that such extrded material is molded by machining, bacillar structure can be on the surface of housing Part or all exposes, therefore when implementing anodized to the housing, as described above, still can be at anodic oxidation Manage envelope and produce irregular colour, thus it is not preferred.
Therefore in the present invention, Mn, Cr and Zr for containing as inevitable impurity total content are limited to Below 0.10 mass %, makes the whole cross section of extrded material be made up of recrystallized structure.Like this if whole cross section is to tie again Crystalline substance tissue, then in the case that extrded material machining is shaped into housing, the whole surface of housing is recrystallization Tissue, when implementing anodized on the surface to the housing, it can prevent anodized envelope from producing irregular colour.
Recrystallized structure in the present invention refers to that the crystallization particle diameter in the section parallel with the direction of extrusion is 20 μm~400 μm Tissue, be by the tissue that forms of crystal grain that average aspect ratio is less than 5.0.Average aspect ratio in the present invention, with extruding In the parallel section in direction, the average crystallite particle diameter determined in the direction of extrusion is set to " a ", by what is determined on thickness of slab direction When average crystallite particle diameter is set to " b ", represented by " a/b " or " b/a ".For example suitably selected skin section of the measure of average aspect ratio, 1/2 thickness of slab portion (inside) so represents multiple regions in section, when average aspect ratio is less than 5.0 in Zone Full, definition Whole cross section is recrystallized structure.Average aspect ratio is less than 3.0 more preferably in Zone Full in the present invention.It is furthermore average Crystallization particle diameter measure can based on JISH0501 the process of chopping carry out.
Cu is added to improve intensity, it is necessary to add more than 0.4 mass %.If Cu contents are less than 0.4 matter % is measured, then can not expect intensity increase.I.e. if less than 0.4 mass %, then the crystal boundary in material without precipitate band (PFZ) Width increases, and its result can substantially damage stress corrosion resistant cracking, therefore can not expect intensity increase.On the other hand, if For Cu contents more than 1.2 mass %, then being not only due to the increase of deformation drag of the extrded material in hot-working causes infringement to extrude Property, it is also easy to product is cracked.Therefore, Cu contents need to be limited to below 1.2 mass %.
In the aluminium alloy extruded product of the present invention, in order to embody crystal grain micronized effect, preferably add Ti contents 1/5 is left The B of right content.Specifically, the mass % of 0.002 mass %~0.02 B is preferably comprised.I.e. B content is less than 0.002 matter In the case of measuring %, it cannot get crystal grain micronized effect, thus it is not preferred.In the case that B content is more than 0.02 mass %, The thick TiB based compounds formed during casting, which are possible to remain, turns into the starting point destroyed in material after extrusion, thus unexcellent Choosing.
In the aluminium alloy extruded product of present embodiment, on Fe, Si, other inevitable impurity elements, as long as Amount contained by 7000 usually used line aluminium alloys, then will not be to intensity, the reduction of stress corrosion resistant cracking and anodic oxygen Change the especially bad influences of generation such as tone, the irregular colour of processing envelope.
In the present invention, such as by using known method the ingot bar for carrying out founding and making above-mentioned alloy composition (squeezes Pressure steel billet), after carrying out homogenize process with steel billet to the extruding, cooled down.
Homogenize process is to reduce the microsegregation occurred in casting and promote the essential elements such as Zn, Mg, Cu The processing of solid solution.In the homogenize process, in the case that homogenize process temperature is less than 450 DEG C, the solid solution of solute element is entered Row is insufficient, therefore can not ensure required intensity sometimes, thus not preferred.In addition, if the temperature homogeneous of the progress more than 520 DEG C Change is handled, then extruding is possible to local melting with steel billet, thus not preferred.Therefore it is preferably set to as homogenize process temperature 450 DEG C~520 DEG C.In addition, if the retention time of homogenize process is less than 4h (hour), then homogenizing in extruding steel billet Carry out it is insufficient, if the opposite retention time exceed 30h, productivity ratio reduction.Therefore, the retention time be preferably set to 4h~ 30h, more preferably it is set as 6h~24h.
In the cooling treatment that the extruding after to homogenize process is carried out with steel billet, cooling velocity needs to be set as, does not lead The element for causing to be dissolved in homogenize process is as the thick speed for separating out, making intensity decreases of intermetallic compound.In the present invention, Generally preferably carried out with 200 DEG C/h~450 DEG C/h, be more preferably set as 250 DEG C/h~350 DEG C/h.
In the present invention, for the above-mentioned extruding steel billet cooled, the extrudate is cooled down after hot extrusion, thus To the 7000 line aluminium alloy extrded materials of the present invention.Or the extrudate to being cooled after extruding, high temperature is carried out as needed After solution treatment, the tempers such as artificial aging processing, natural aging treatment are carried out, thus obtain the present invention 7000 are aluminium Alloy extrusion material.
When carrying out hot extrusion, if not by extruding heating steel billet to more than 400 DEG C of temperature during extruding, it is likely that It is more than 500 DEG C that the section bar temperature after just extruding, which can not be ensured, so as to ensure in order to not by the water cooling after extruding, fan Air cools down the die quenching carried out and forms the intensity needed for supersaturated solid solution.
In addition, if the section bar temperature of extrudate is more than 550 DEG C, it is likely that surface of extruded profiles produce it is raised, The defects of defect.
Therefore, extruding is preferably controlled to more than 400 DEG C with the heating-up temperature of steel billet, to cause the section bar temperature after just extruding As 470 DEG C~550 DEG C of scope.Cooling after extruding is carried out as described above by die quenching, but if cold after extruding But speed is less than 100 DEG C/min, then can not ensure required intensity.
Therefore, in the die quenching that water cooling or fan air cooling are carried out after extrusion, cooling velocity is preferably controlled to 100 DEG C/more than min.In addition in this case, in order to obtain predetermined intensity, can use the extrudate after extruding temporarily in height Temperature is lower to be dissolved, the method cooled down at a predetermined rate.
Carry out the temper (T5 outputs) such as artificial aging processing for the extrudate after cooling, or for cooling after Extrudate solution treatment is carried out with 450 DEG C~540 DEG C of high temperature after carry out artificial aging processing and natural aging treatment again It is 450N/mm thus, it is possible to effectively obtain tensile strength etc. temper (T6 processing, T7 processing)2~600N/mm2, endurance For 400N/mm2~500N/mm2High intensity aluminium alloy extruded product.
In addition, by the way that surface is put into 95 DEG C~100 DEG C by the aluminium alloy extruded product of 90% strain of endurance In the chromic acid solution of boiling (concentration when being made 1L solution to 36g chromium oxide, 30g potassium bichromates, 3g sodium chloride addition pure water Chromic acid solution), rupture time of origin (the SCC time as surface;SCC be cracked the time) can obtain 40min with On, stress corrosion resistant cracking can be significantly improved.
The aluminium alloy extruded product of the invention so obtained, such as it is used as panel type terminal, mobile phone, digital camera etc. The shell body material of miniaturized electronics.I.e., the aluminium alloy extruded product of the present invention is shaped to housing by machining Shape, envelope is formed by anodized to the housing shape products formed, so as to obtain housing.
The tone of the anodized envelope of housing is formed in the present invention, the Hunter aberration recorded by JISZ8730 is public The brightness index L* (L* values) that formula obtains is represented (referring for example to patent document 4,5 etc.).Furthermore L* values are the upper limit with 100, Numerical value is higher to represent brighter tone.
It is golden for target with what is become clear as the tone of anodized envelope in housing of the present invention, if It is represented then as 65 < L* < 95 with above-mentioned L*.The tone can pass through alloy composition and crystalline structure with the present invention 7000 line aluminium alloy extrded materials and obtain.
In addition, the golden concentration of anodized envelope can change according to thickness, in housing of the present invention, It it is preferably 3~30 μm by film thickness.I.e., anodized envelope is more thin cheaper, but sometimes cannot be sufficiently golden, and And if less than 3 μm, then it is difficult to stabilization and forms anodized envelope.On the other hand, the thickness of anodized envelope If it exceeds 30 μm, then cost increases, and in deformation, envelope easily cracks, in addition anodized envelope Gold can become overrich, cannot get the above-mentioned bright gold close to white.
