Description

Fusion casting preparation method of low-oxygen pure silver melt material
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of pure silver fuse melt material manufacturing, and particularly relates to a fusion casting preparation method of a low-oxygen pure silver melt material.
Background
The fuse is widely applied to high-low voltage distribution systems, control systems and electric equipment, and is one of the most commonly applied protection devices as a short circuit protector and an overcurrent protector. When the fuse passes through excessive current, the melt material must be fused in time to protect the electric appliance, and the chemical composition, resistivity, dimensional accuracy and the like of the melt material all influence the service performance of the melt material. With the rapid development of modern manufacturing industry, electrical products are increasingly developed towards large capacity, small volume and differentiation, and higher requirements are put forward on melt materials, namely, the melt materials are required to be complete in variety and specification, various in shape, accurate in size, reliable in performance and low and stable in resistance in the using process. The formability and the processability of the melt material are improved, the resistivity of the melt material is reduced, and the melt material has great significance for improving the quality of the melt material.
Silver has excellent electrical and thermal conductivity, and of all metals, silver has the best electrical conductivity. Therefore, pure silver is an ideal melt material for making fuses, especially high-end fuses. In the processing process of the pure silver melt material, the component purity, the impurity content and the dimensional accuracy of the pure silver melt material need to be accurately controlled, so that stable and accurate linear resistivity can be obtained. The common pure silver melt material products are silver strips and silver wires, the main processing technological processes comprise smelting casting, extrusion, rolling or drawing and the like of silver ingots, the silver ingots are blanks used for extrusion and are also starting materials in the whole pure silver melt material processing process, and the purity of the silver ingots directly determines the purity and the resistivity of final finished products, so that the use performance of the products is influenced. Therefore, the preparation of high-purity silver ingots is a key process for processing pure silver melt materials.
The impurity elements and oxygen content of silver have great influence on the conductivity of silver, and the index representing the conductivity of silver is resistivity. The lower the content of impurity elements in silver, the lower the oxygen content, the higher the silver purity, and the lower the resistivity. For fuse melt materials, the less the mass of silver material required to reach the same meter resistance value, and the important significance for saving material cost, therefore, the resistivity is one of the key technical indexes of pure silver melt material products.
Silver is oxidized during smelting, and when the silver is strongly oxidized, no covering agent is arranged on the molten silver liquid level, and the furnace burden contains more volatile metals such as lead, zinc, arsenic, antimony and the like, the volatilization loss of the silver is increased. Silver, when melted in air, absorbs 21 times its own volume of oxygen, which is released as "silver rain" when the molten silver liquid condenses, causing a splash loss of fine-grained silver beads. Oxygen can affect the resistivity and subsequent processing performance of the pure silver melt material, so that the oxygen content in the silver ingot casting process is controlled, the low-oxygen high-purity silver ingot preparation process is developed, and the method has important significance for processing the precise pure silver melt material.
