Abstract

Description

Method for improving performance of secondary aluminum
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of non-ferrous metal regeneration and recovery melt treatment, and particularly relates to a method for improving the performance of secondary aluminum.
Background
The demand for lightweight structural components is increasing as green economic development strategies suggest. Due to the advantages of good weldability, low expansion coefficient, strong corrosion resistance, thermal stability and the like of the Al-Si alloy, the Al-Si alloy is widely concerned by researchers. In recent years, the recycling of secondary aluminum has become a mainstream trend for energy saving and environmental protection.
Fe is a main impurity element in aluminum alloys, and its content gradually increases with the recycling. Therefore, the secondary aluminum generally contains a relatively high content of Fe. In order to improve the utilization efficiency of the secondary aluminum, the control of the Fe content is very strict. The presence of Fe forms long-acicular hard compounds and reduces the performance of the alloy. At present, the technology except Fe is still not mature, and the Fe characteristic appearance is mainly changed by chemical modification or increasing the cooling rate. However, both methods have various disadvantages, such as the increase in the volume fraction of the second phase due to chemical deterioration; it is difficult to increase the cooling rate in the industry.
CN201310545026.X, a method for removing iron from recycled aluminum, utilizes Al-B and Al-Mn intermediate alloy to reduce Fe content in an auxiliary vibration die and improve the performance of the recycled aluminum, but the treated Fe content is only less than 1.2 wt%, the obtained mechanical performance is not high, the tensile strength is 155MPa, and the elongation is 3.5%.
CN102304649A recycled aluminum alloy deferrization flux, which comprises 20-40% of a recycled aluminum refining agent, 30-50% of manganese chloride and the balance of coke, and uniformly scattering the mixed flux on the liquid surface, wherein the deferrization rate reaches 52.65%, but the mechanical properties of the recycled aluminum after deferrization are not mentioned. There is therefore a need to find a simple and economical conventional method for improving the properties of high Fe content recycled aluminium alloys.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to provide a method for improving the performance of a recycled aluminum alloy, which aims to solve the problem of low performance of the recycled aluminum in the prior art and realize the methods for refining the structure of the recycled aluminum, refining Fe phase and reducing porosity.
In order to achieve the purpose of the invention, the technical scheme adopted by the invention is as follows:
a method for improving the performance of secondary aluminum is characterized in that:
1) firstly, preheating the secondary aluminum to the temperature of 350-400 ℃, and then heating to the temperature of 730-760 ℃ for melting;
2) adding a Ti/B-containing intermediate alloy into the melt, wherein the mass fraction of the Ti/B-containing intermediate alloy is 0-38 wt.%, adding the Sr-containing intermediate alloy, then performing auxiliary stirring at 750 +/-5 ℃, refining, degassing, slagging off, and keeping the temperature for 10-20 min.
The recycled aluminum alloy can be recycled cast A356.2 alloy.
The intermediate alloy is Al4Ti1.7B.
The invention relates to a method for improving the performance of secondary aluminum, which is to add an intermediate alloy containing Ti/B into an aluminum melt and release Al in the melt3Ti and TiB2The particles, α -Al heterogeneous nucleation sites, reduce grain size, increase feeding capacity, and further reduce porosity, excess Ti forms Ti (AlSi)3The phase can be used as β -Fe nucleation particles, the growth direction of the Fe-rich phase is changed, the size and the shape of the Fe-rich phase are reduced, Sr and auxiliary stirring can refine crystal grains and break a brittle hard phase, and the performance of the alloy is improved.
By adopting the technical scheme in the scheme, the method has the advantages that: the method can reduce the grain size, reduce the porosity, refine the Fe-rich phase and change the appearance of the Fe-rich phase, thereby improving the structure of the regenerated aluminum and improving the regenerated aluminum, and further obviously improving the regeneration recovery rate of the aluminum alloy.
