Description

Method for modifying LPSO structure in magnesium alloy through primary nano disperse phase
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of non-ferrous metal alloy preparation, in particular to a method for modifying an LPSO structure in a magnesium alloy by using a primary nano dispersed phase.
Background
As the lightest metal structure material, the magnesium alloy has wide application prospect in the field of light weight. However, the defects of low absolute strength, poor heat resistance and the like of the traditional magnesium alloy seriously limit the popularization and the application of the magnesium alloy in various fields. If the service temperature of the conventional Mg-Al series alloy exceeds 120 ℃, the strength is sharply reduced, which is mainly because a large amount of Mg exists in the alloy17Al12A low melting precipitated phase. The rare earth magnesium alloy (Mg-RE series) is a typical representative of high-strength heat-resistant magnesium alloy in the existing magnesium alloy system. Rare earth elements are added into the existing magnesium alloy, and a precipitated phase rich in rare earth and high in melting point and thermal stability is formed through subsequent thermal mechanical treatment, so that the strength of the alloy is improved. The Mg-RE alloy can obtain high strength and even ultrahigh strength through solid solution strengthening, precipitation strengthening, composite strengthening and other ways. However, the heat resistance of the rare earth-rich refractory compound formed in the Mg-RE alloy is still low, the service temperature is generally not more than 200 ℃, otherwise most precipitated phases are subjected to rapid Ostwald ripening to coarsen and grow up, and the strengthening effect is lost. In recent years, it is important to discover that a novel long-period stacking ordered structure (LPSO structure for short) is formed after certain processing by further adding Zn element into the rare earth magnesium alloy. A large number of researches show that the LPSO structure has higher thermal stability and plays a great role in promoting the strengthening and toughening and heat resistance of the magnesium alloy.
However, as the research on the structure and performance of LPSO is further advanced, it is found that the LPSO type Mg-RE series alloy still has the following two main problems: on the one hand, the LPSO structure itself is still a metal type compound, the deformation of which is still a kink mechanism mainly based on basal plane dislocation slip motion and has strong anisotropy. In particular, LPSO oriented at 45 ° is liable to undergo basal plane slip, and the heat resistance is not satisfactory. Therefore, how to effectively inhibit basal plane dislocation movement in LPSO and further improve the heat resistance of LPSO itself is one of the keys to improving the overall heat resistance of LPSO type Mg-RE series alloy. According to the principle that the nano precipitated phase can hinder dislocation slip and further improve heat resistance, the nano precipitated phase can be introduced into the LPSO structure, so that the heat resistance of the LPSO structure is further improved, and the anisotropy is reduced. Unfortunately, the LPSO structure is thermodynamically stable and is a non-heat treatable microstructure, and there is no report of in-situ precipitated phases in LPSO at present. Chinese patent CN107058924A discloses a high-strength high-plasticity heat-resistant magnesium alloy for regulating LPSO structure and nano precipitated phase and a preparation method thereof, and ECAP processing is carried out on Mg-Y-Zn series alloy to obtain ultra-fine grain rare earth magnesium alloy, wherein the average grain size of a magnesium matrix is 0.6-1.3 mu m. Then, the LPSO structure in the alloy is regulated and controlled by means of a double heat treatment system, a nano precipitated phase is introduced, and the high-strength-toughness heat-resistant magnesium alloy is prepared by utilizing three mechanisms of fine grain strengthening, LPSO strengthening and nano precipitated phase strengthening. However, the nano precipitated phase is still precipitated in the magnesium alloy matrix, has no direct effect on the LPSO structure, and cannot modify and optimize the LPSO structure.
On the other hand, the LPSO structure in the general as-cast alloy is coarse, and the improvement space for the material performance is limited, and the preparation of magnesium alloy containing fine LPSO structure is becoming the focus of research more and more. But the fine LPSO structure has lower thermal stability, is easy to grow and coarsen in the high-temperature deformation and heat treatment processes, and loses the strengthening effect. Magnesium alloy containing LPSO structure is mainly prepared by extrusion, rolling and other methods, broken fine LPSO phase in the alloy is in fibrous distribution along the extrusion direction, except anisotropy, the short fiber-shaped LPSO structure is unstable, obvious fiber coarsening can occur when the short fiber-shaped LPSO structure is annealed for a long time at 300 ℃, the good interface matching relation with a matrix is lost, and the strengthening effect is greatly reduced [ Mater. Sci.Eng.A,2013,560,71-79 ]. At present, some researchers begin to prepare superfine LPSO structures by using methods such as rapid solidification powder metallurgy and severe plastic deformation, and certain research results are obtained. For example, Chinese patent CN108950331B discloses a method for preparing a magnesium alloy with fine LPSO structure and high toughness, which adopts Mg-RE-Zn (-Zr/Mn) alloy atomized powder as a raw material, and regulates the structure of the alloy by regulating and controlling parameters such as pressure, temperature, time, heating rate and the like of spark plasma sintering, wherein the prepared LPSO has the grain size of 5-8 μm and still larger size. S.M.Zhu et al [ Mater.Sci.Eng.A,2017,692, 35-42 ] utilize an Equal Channel Angular Pressing (ECAP) method to prepare an ultrafine LPSO structure, the minimum grain size of the ultrafine LPSO structure reaches 300nm, and the ultrafine LPSO structure is LPSO grains with the minimum size reported at present. However, such small-sized LPSO grains appear only at local recrystallization sites, and most of the grain sizes are still on the micrometer scale. In addition, the high temperature thermal stability of LPSO is left to be examined due to the lack of pinning of second phase particles within its structure and at grain boundaries.
Based on the above description, it is necessary to develop a method for modifying LPSO structure to solve the above problems.
Disclosure of Invention
According to the technical problems of unsatisfactory heat resistance, large size, easy coarsening in the heat treatment process and the like of the LPSO structure, the method for modifying the LPSO structure in the magnesium alloy by the primary nano dispersed phase is provided. The invention introduces a nanometer dispersed phase with ultra-high melting point in situ in the LPSO structure while preparing the superfine LPSO crystal grains, so that the modified LPSO structure has more excellent mechanical property and thermal stability. The invention realizes the modification of LPSO mainly by generating a nano dispersed phase through oxygen doping treatment, does not limit the oxygen content in the oxygen doping process of the LPSO pre-alloy powder, and can actually determine the oxygen doping amount according to the specific requirements on the material performance.
The technical means adopted by the invention are as follows:
a method for modifying LPSO structure in magnesium alloy by primary nanometer disperse phase is characterized in that LPSO with preset components is selected and smelted to prepare alloy ingots, and then the alloy ingots are processed into LPSO prealloy powder; carrying out mechanical alloying oxygen doping treatment on the LPSO prealloying powder to obtain magnesium alloy precursor powder with oxygen dissolved in solid solution; and cold press molding and sintering the magnesium alloy precursor powder dissolved with oxygen to obtain the primary nano dispersed phase modified LPSO structural alloy.
The method is specifically carried out according to the following steps:
(1) preparation of LPSO prealloyed powder: LPSO (molecular formula is Mg)85Zn6Y9) Is/are as followsThe chemical composition is Mg: 63.40 wt%; zn: 12.04 wt%; y: 24.56 wt.% of Mg85Zn6Y9(ii) a Preparing an LPSO alloy ingot by a conventional magnesium alloy smelting method, and processing the LPSO alloy ingot into fine scraps to obtain LPSO pre-alloy powder;
(2) mechanical alloying oxygen doping treatment: carrying out mechanical alloying oxygen doping treatment on the LPSO prealloy powder prepared in the step (1) by an air oxidation method or a magnesium oxide decomposition method to obtain magnesium alloy precursor powder with oxygen solid solution;
(3) sintering and forming: and (3) drying the magnesium alloy precursor powder dissolved with oxygen prepared in the step (2), performing cold press molding, and sintering and molding the cold-pressed blank to obtain the primary nano dispersed phase modified LPSO structural alloy.
Further, in the step (1), the fine scraps need to be processed on the LPSO alloy ingot through a turning or milling process under the protection of argon, and the size of the fine scraps is controlled to be 0.5-1 mm.
Further, in the step (2), the mechanical alloying oxygen-doping treatment of the LPSO prealloying powder by the air oxidation method comprises the following steps: cleaning and drying the prealloying powder, then filling the prealloying powder into a ball milling tank in the air, and carrying out mechanical alloying reaction under the condition of set mechanical alloying parameters. The mechanical alloying parameter conditions are as follows: the ball material ratio is 2: 1-5: 1, and the rotation speed is 500-; stopping the ball mill for 0.5h and scraping once, wherein the total ball milling time is 3-5 h, and the total time of stopping and scraping is not counted.
Furthermore, the cleaning refers to ultrasonic cleaning in alcohol, and the drying is performed in a vacuum/argon protective atmosphere. The cleaning of the prealloying powder is to wash away the pollution such as oil stain and the like introduced in the chip making process; the drying process is carried out under vacuum/argon atmosphere in order to avoid the introduction of uncontrolled oxygen when heating in air.
The shutdown scraping is to prevent the pre-alloyed powder from generating excessive cold welding in the mechanical alloying process. Because LPSO has better plasticity, cold welding and adhesion are easy to occur in the mechanical alloying process, the cold welding cannot be prevented by adding ball-milling aids such as alcohol, normal hexane and the like, and the machine is stopped and scraped within 0.5 h; on the other hand, the shutdown scraping supplements oxygen consumed in the mechanical alloying process.
Further, the above-mentioned shutdown scraping is performed in an air or argon environment, the number of times of scraping in the air is determined by the oxygen doping amount required by the material, the oxygen doping amount is actually determined according to the specific requirements on the material performance, and the rest of scraping processes are performed in the argon environment provided by the glove box.
After the material scraping in the air is finished, the ball milling tank is sealed, which is equivalent to supplementing oxygen consumed in the mechanical alloying process. The amount of oxygen replenished after each scraping in air was 21% of the volume of the milling jar (i.e., the volume fraction of oxygen in air), which allows quantitative control of the amount of oxygen incorporation to some extent.
Further, in the step (2), the process of performing mechanical alloying oxygen-doping treatment on the LPSO prealloy powder by a magnesium oxide decomposition method comprises the following steps: cleaning and drying the pre-alloyed powder, weighing MgO powder with a certain mass, putting the pre-alloyed powder and the MgO powder into a ball-milling tank in a protective atmosphere according to a certain proportion, sealing, and carrying out mechanical alloying reaction under the condition of set mechanical alloying parameters. The mechanical alloying parameter conditions are as follows: the ball material ratio is 5: 1-10: 1, and the rotation speed is 500-; stopping the ball mill for 0.5h and scraping once per ball mill, wherein the total ball milling time is 3-5 h, and the total time is not counted in the stopping and scraping time; the shutdown scraping process is carried out in an argon atmosphere provided by a glove box.
Further, the oxygen doping amount of the LPSO prealloy powder is determined by the certain proportion, and the oxygen doping amount determines the number density of the primary nano dispersed phase, so that the mechanical property and the thermal stability of the material are determined. Quantitative control of the oxygen incorporation amount can be achieved by controlling the proportion fraction of the MgO powder.
Further, in the step (3), the sintering molding adopts the processes of common hot pressing sintering, spark plasma sintering or hot isostatic pressing and the like, and the main purpose is to sinter the precursor powder into a compact block body, so that the LPSO structure and the nanometer yttrium oxide dispersed phase are dynamically precipitated in situ in the sintering process of the alloy. The sintering temperature is 350-450 ℃, the sintering pressure is 20-150 MPa, and the sintering time is 5-120 min.
By adopting different sintering forming methods, the precipitation kinetics of the LPSO structure and the nano yttrium oxide dispersed phase can be changed to a certain extent, but the thermodynamic formation mechanism of the LPSO structure and the nano yttrium oxide dispersed phase is not changed essentially.
The present invention mechanically alloys LPSO pre-alloyed powder by an air oxidation process or a magnesium oxide decomposition process to introduce oxygen into the material. Through huge energy input in the mechanical alloying process, oxygen in the air is forced to be dissolved in crystal lattices of the LPSO pre-alloyed powder through a solid-gas reaction mechanism or oxygen generated by decomposing magnesium oxide through a solid-solid reaction mechanism, and the magnesium alloy precursor powder with oxygen dissolved in a solid solution is prepared. And sintering and molding the precursor powder to precipitate a large amount of fine oxide nano disperse phase in situ in the LPSO structure to obtain the primary nano disperse phase modified LPSO structure.
The incorporation of oxygen changes the thermodynamic state of the material due to the higher affinity of yttrium and oxygen in the alloy. During the powder sintering process, when the LPSO structure is formed again, a part of yttrium element in the alloy can be combined with solid-solution oxygen element to generate a nano yttrium oxide dispersed phase, and the nano yttrium oxide dispersed phase is precipitated in situ in the LPSO and on a grain boundary. The nano dispersed phase precipitated in LPSO can effectively block basal plane dislocation glide, thereby further improving the heat resistance and reducing the anisotropy. Meanwhile, the growth of LPSO grains is inhibited by the action of kinetic pinning of the nano dispersed phase precipitated on the grain boundary, so that the modified LPSO structure keeps high thermal stability, and the grain size is stabilized at 200 nm.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the following advantages:
1. the invention introduces nano disperse phase into LPSO structure to realize the modification of non-heat-treatable LPSO structure. The introduced nano dispersed phase is essentially oxide ceramic particles with ultrahigh melting point, does not grow up at high temperature and has excellent thermal stability; meanwhile, the steel plate has small size, dispersed distribution, high number density and obvious strengthening effect; in addition, a determined crystallographic relation exists between the nano dispersed phase introduced by an in-situ precipitation mode and the LPSO substrate, so that the nano dispersed phase has tight interface combination, and the problems of weak binding force and low strengthening and toughening effects between nano ceramic particles and the substrate added in the traditional powder metallurgy process are solved.
2. The high-energy ball milling process adopted by the invention effectively refines the grain size of LPSO, and then the dynamic pinning effect of the nano dispersed phase precipitated in situ is utilized to obviously inhibit the growth of LPSO grains, so that the modified LPSO structure keeps high thermal stability. The LPSO structure with the grain size of about 200nm prepared by the invention basically does not grow crystal grains and does not reduce the performance after being annealed for 100 hours at the high temperature of below 400 ℃.
3. The modified LPSO structure can be prepared by mechanical alloying and conventional powder sintering method. The preparation process is simple, the requirement on equipment environment is low, and the prepared material has excellent mechanical property and good application prospect.
