Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of Cu-Cr electrical contact alloy material preparation, in particular to a solidification preparation method of a Cu-Cr electrical contact alloy with a dispersion type composite solidification structure.
Background
Cu-Cr alloys are an important electrical contact material. The material requires that the Cr-rich phase is dispersed in a Cu matrix in a particle form. The phase diagram of the Cu-Cr alloy is shown in FIG. 1, with a metastable liquid component immiscible temperature regime (see dashed line in FIG. 1). When the homogeneous alloy melt is cooled to a temperature within the immiscible temperature range of the metastable liquid component, a liquid-liquid phase change occurs and Cr-rich phase droplets precipitate out of the melt. Because the specific gravity difference between two liquid phases is very large, the phenomenon of serious phase segregation and even two-phase layering is easily formed during the liquid-liquid phase change, so that the preparation of the Cu-Cr electrical contact alloy with a dispersion type solidification structure is very difficult, and the traditional casting method is difficult to obtain an alloy material with a uniform structure, which limits the preparation of the Cu-Cr electrical contact alloy by using the casting technology in industry. By adopting proper measures, the nucleation rate of the dispersed phase liquid drop is improved, so that the size and the migration speed of the dispersed phase liquid drop are reduced, the formation speed of phase segregation is slowed down, and the method is an effective way for preparing the Cu-Cr electrical contact alloy.

The casting temperature of the Cu-Cr alloy is higher than TbSaid Cr being3C2The particles are added in the form of a charge.
In the prepared Cu-Cr electrical contact alloy, Cr is dispersed in a Cu matrix in a particle form.
