Description

Preparation method and application of magnesium alloy containing graphene refiner
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of non-ferrous metal material manufacturing, in particular to a preparation method and application of a refiner.
Background
The grain size has an important influence on the mechanical properties of the metal material, because the grain boundary can block the movement of dislocation in a slip plane, and the effect of blocking the dislocation is more obvious when the grain is finer. In magnesium alloys, the grain refining effect is generally more pronounced than in other alloys. In order to improve the mechanical property of the magnesium alloy in the preparation process, a fine grain structure needs to be obtained. The usual methods are mechanical vibration, electromagnetic stirring, high-speed shearing, ultrasonic treatment, etc. However, these methods have high requirements for equipment and have great limitations for large-scale industrial application. Under industrial production conditions, the addition of grain refiners is the simplest and most efficient method, for example grain refinement can be achieved by using a magnesium-zirconium master alloy. However, rare earth materials are scarce in resources, so that the manufacturing cost of the materials is increased. Therefore, the development of a novel low-cost grain refiner has great practical significance.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to solve the problems that the grain refining method in magnesium and magnesium alloy is limited and the grains are easy to grow. The method for preparing the graphene refiner of the novel magnesium alloy is simple in process, low in cost and applicable to large-scale industrial manufacturing.
The invention relates to a preparation method of a magnesium alloy containing a graphene refiner, which comprises the following steps:
firstly, heating and melting magnesium alloy in a crucible under the protection of mixed atmosphere of sulfur hexafluoride and carbon dioxide to obtain magnesium alloy melt; wherein the heating temperature is 660-800 ℃;
secondly, the CO with the purity of 99.9 percent and the flow rate of 1L/min to 5L/min is mixed2Continuously introducing gas into the magnesium alloy melt, and keeping mechanical stirring at the temperature of 660-800 ℃ to perform magnesium thermal reaction until 5-50% of magnesium in the magnesium alloy participates in the reaction; wherein the stirring speed is 500r/min-2500 r/min;
and thirdly, standing the alloy obtained by the reaction in the second step for 5-20 min, and then carrying out water condensation on the alloy to obtain the magnesium alloy containing the graphene refiner.
The magnesium alloy containing the graphene refiner is prepared by the method and is used for preparing fine-grain magnesium alloy.
The invention has the following advantages:
the traditional casting equipment can be utilized in the preparation process of the grain refiner, and the technical field can be easily mastered by operators. The raw material sources in the preparation process are wide. Therefore, the magnesium alloy grain refiner obtained by the method has great industrial application value. The key point of the preparation is that the grain refinement of the magnesium alloy is carried out in two steps, wherein the first step is to prepare graphene and graphene nanosheets containing high volume fractions by utilizing a magnesium thermal reaction, and the second step is to place the magnesium alloy containing a refiner into the magnesium alloy needing the grain refinement, so that the industrial application operation is simple and convenient.
According to the method, carbon dioxide is used as one of raw materials, graphene and graphene nanosheets prepared through a magnesium thermal reaction are used as grain refiners, the rare earth material grain refiners are replaced, and the cost is reduced. According to the invention, a small amount of magnesium alloy containing the graphene grain refiner with high volume fraction is prepared through a small crucible, and then the magnesium alloy is added into the magnesium alloy melted in a large crucible as required to prepare the fine-grain magnesium alloy. By the method, the problems that the requirement on equipment is high, the condition is harsh, and the method is not suitable for industrial mass production when the fine magnesium alloy is prepared by directly introducing carbon dioxide into the large crucible for melting the magnesium alloy can be solved.
