As can be observed from Table 2, the manganese brass alloy prepared by the method has high tensile strength, high yield strength, high elongation and high hardness, the tensile strength is higher than 557MPa, the yield strength is higher than 204MPa, and the hardness is higher than 142 HB; compared with the examples 1 to 4, the tensile strength, the yield strength, the hardness and the elongation of the alloy are greatly improved along with the addition of Ni, because Ni mainly plays a role in refining the structure in the alloy, the strength of the alloy is improved, the mechanical property of the material tends to be stable along with the increase of the Ni content, and when the Ni content is excessive, the alpha phase in the structure is excessively precipitated, and the mechanical property of the material is reduced on the contrary; comparing examples 1, 5 and 6, it can be seen that with the increase of Al content, the tensile strength, yield strength, hardness and elongation of the alloy increase and the trend becomes slow, Al element can be dissolved with Cu to refine grains, and the strength and plasticity of the material are improved; comparing examples 1, 7 and 8, it can be seen that when the addition amount of Mn and Si is too much, the brittleness of the alloy is increased, and the tensile strength, yield strength, elongation and hardness are reduced; as can be seen from comparison of examples 1, 9 and 10, the melt is subjected to electromagnetic stirring in the molten salt electrolysis treatment process, and the two have synergistic effect, so that the mechanical strength of the alloy can be enhanced; it can be seen from comparison examples 1, 11, and 12 that the mechanical properties of the alloy can be improved by quenching after the ingot is extruded, the strength of the alloy can be further improved by performing heat preservation twice, and it can be seen from comparison examples 1, 13, and 14 that the cooling rate in the annealing treatment process is controlled, and the strength of the alloy prepared by cooling at different rates is higher than that of the alloy prepared by cooling at the same rate, which indicates that the control of cooling at different rates is more favorable for eliminating stress, improving the uniformity of the product, and improving the strength.
Experimental example 2: wear resistance:
the manganese brass alloy prepared in the embodiment 1-14 is used as a detection object, the wear resistance of the alloy is determined by referring to GB/T12444-2006, and the wear resistance of the alloy is represented by a friction coefficient and a wear volume. The test results are shown in table 3.
Table 3: wear resistance of manganese brass alloy
Examples Average coefficient of friction Wear volume (10)-15m3/m) Examples Average coefficient of friction Wear volume (10)-15m3/m)
1 0.098 3450 8 0.152 3085
2 0.102 8255 9 0.284 6428

7 0.173 3050 14 0.134 6754
The friction coefficient is known to be mainly related to the roughness of the alloy surface, and as shown in table 3, the friction coefficient of the alloy prepared by the invention is lower, the difference of the friction coefficients of all the alloys is smaller, and the friction coefficient of the alloy prepared by the invention has no obvious change along with the increase of the abrasion time, which indicates that the roughness of the surface of the alloy prepared by the invention is smaller.
As shown in table 3, the wear volume of the alloy of example 2 is the largest, and it can be seen from comparison examples 1 to 6 that, with the addition of Al and Ni, the wear volume of the alloy decreases because the second phase appears in the alloy and the size of the silicon-manganese phase particles decreases, which improves the wear resistance of the alloy, but the wear volume difference of the alloys of examples 1, 3, 5 and 6 is smaller, which indicates that when the content of Al increases and the addition amount of Ni is lower, the second phase is not changed and the influence on the wear volume of the alloy is smaller; compared with the examples 1, 7 and 8, the increase of the content of Mn and Si in the alloy has obvious refining effect on the matrix phase and the reinforcing phase, so that silicon-manganese phase particles with smaller sizes are uniformly distributed in the alloy, the plastic deformation resistance of the metal on the wear surface is enhanced, and the wear resistance of the alloy is improved; compared with the examples 1 and 9-12, the molten salt electrolysis treatment, the electromagnetic stirring and the quenching treatment after the hot pressing both can refine grains and improve the wear resistance of the material; it can be seen from comparison of examples 1, 13 and 14 that, in the annealing treatment process, compared with the same temperature reduction, the temperature reduction treatment by controlling different rates is more favorable for improving the uniformity of the product surface and improving the wear resistance.
Example 3: thermal stability performance:
the manganese brass alloy of the embodiment 1-14 of the invention is put in a 200 ℃ holding furnace according to the GB/T228 standard for long-time high-temperature treatment for 100 hours, and after cooling, the tensile strength test is carried out according to the GB/T228 standard, and the specific detection result is shown in FIG. 4.
As can be seen from the figure, the manganese brass alloy prepared by the method disclosed by the invention can still keep higher tensile strength after being treated at the high temperature of 200 ℃ for 10 hours, the tensile strength of the manganese brass alloy can keep 84.6% of the original strength at most, and the manganese brass alloy has higher thermal stability; it can be seen from comparison of examples 1 and 9 to 12 that the molten salt electrolysis treatment, the electromagnetic stirring treatment and the quenching treatment after the hot pressing have a large influence on the thermal stability of the alloy, mainly because the molten salt electrolysis treatment, the electromagnetic stirring treatment and the quenching treatment after the hot pressing can significantly improve the microstructure of the material, and the precipitation distribution of the second phase of the alloy is more uniform by controlling the treatment conditions, so that the tissue distribution of the extruded material is uniform, and during the subsequent high-temperature stability performance test, the material tissue distribution is uniform, so that the long-term thermal stability performance can be still maintained at 200 ℃.
Experimental example 4: hot workability:
the alloy prepared in the examples 1 to 14 is used as a material, cut into samples with the diameter of 15mm and the length of 25mm, respectively kept at 740 ℃ and 635 ℃ for 20min, then placed longitudinally, with a thermal compression capacity of 10 tons and equipped with an Amsler tester of an electric furnace, compressing at high temperature at a strain rate of 0.02/s and a working ratio of 80% to give a thickness of 5mm, observing the sample with a magnifying glass of 10 times magnification, when an opening of 0.2mm or more was observed, it was judged as cracked, and the case where no cracking occurred under both conditions of 740 ℃ and 635 ℃ was evaluated as "good", the case where rupture occurred at 740 ℃ but not at 635 ℃ was evaluated as "Δ" (fair), the case where rupture did not occur at 740 ℃ but at 635 ℃ was evaluated as "a" (fair), and the case where rupture occurred at both conditions of 740 ℃ and 635 ℃ was evaluated as "x" (por). The test results are shown in table 4.

Hot working property
As shown in Table 4, the manganese brass prepared by the invention has excellent thermal stability, no cracking phenomenon is found after the treatment at 635 ℃, and the alloy of the examples 1-8 can still not crack at 740 ℃, which shows that the components of the alloy have no obvious influence on the thermal stability, and the comparative examples 9-12 show that the molten salt electrolysis treatment, the electromagnetic stirring and the quenching treatment can achieve the effects of grain refinement, product uniformity improvement and quality improvement, and are beneficial to improving the thermal processing performance of the alloy; it can be seen from comparison of examples 1, 13 and 14 that the control of the cooling process at different rates is more beneficial to improving the thermal stability of the product surface compared with the same temperature.
