The 5xxx aluminum alloy has moderate and high strength, good welding performance and corrosion resistance, and has wide application in transportation and structural engineering specialties, such as bridges, aeroengine parts, fuselage panels, transport ships and cranes. In recent years, with the development of scientific and technological industrial technologies at home and abroad, aluminum alloys gradually replace steel materials in order to reduce the weight of machines. However, the aluminum alloy is often subjected to surface fatigue, cracks, pores and other defects in the service process due to the influence of external large stress action, including surface friction and reciprocating unloading and loading action. Therefore, a large number of researchers repair the surface defects of the aluminum alloy through technologies such as laser repair and thermal spraying, reduce material waste caused by the defects, and reduce cost.
At present, Al-Mg-Sc-Zr alloy powder is directly used for laser repair and has a plurality of problems and defects, columnar crystals of a repair coating grow obviously, a large number of pores exist among dendrites, and the repair of a wider area is easy to crack, so that the comprehensive strength of a repair layer is low, and the fatigue resistance is low. The existing research patents are Al-Mg-Sc alloy powder used for powder bed laser additive manufacturing, the Al-Mg-Sc alloy powder is directly used for laser coaxial powder feeding additive manufacturing, and the problems of low mechanical property, cracks and the like are easy to occur. Because the powder bed additive manufacturing and the powder feeding additive manufacturing belong to different types of additive manufacturing methods, the powder bed additive manufacturing and the powder feeding additive manufacturing have the advantages of high cooling speed, difficult growth of crystal grains and high mechanical property; however, the latter crystal grains tend to grow larger and the precipitates are coarser. In patent publication No. CN109175350A, an Al-Mg-Mn-Sc-Zr aluminum alloy powder for additive manufacturing and a method for preparing the same are disclosed, which is an Al-Mg alloy reinforced by adding Sc and Zr elements, and although the strength of the aluminum alloy reaches 450MPa, it is difficult to avoid defects such as cracks and holes during printing, and it is difficult to eliminate anisotropy between the aluminum alloy and a base material. Furthermore, the aluminum alloy powder formula is difficult to be used in a coaxial powder feeding repair process, and the repair coating has obvious columnar crystal growth and holes in the repair process, so that the repair coating is very easy to crack when used for large-area repair. The patent with the publication number of CN107881382A discloses a rare earth modified high-strength aluminum alloy powder special for additive manufacturing, wherein the alloy strength under the additive manufacturing process is increased by mainly adding different rare earth elements to optimize an Al-Mg alloy system, but the strength is still lower than 300MPa, the synergistic effect of other elements on the improvement of the alloy strength is mainly ignored, and the condition that the parts printed by the system still have anisotropy and large columnar crystal proportion is still existed.
