Background
At present, the impact-resistant, shock-absorbing and energy-absorbing protective material has wide application requirements in the fields of aerospace, industrial construction, automobile safety, nuclear power chemical industry, public safety and the like. The aluminum-based porous composite material is a novel buffering energy-absorbing material taking hollow microspheres as holes and aluminum alloy as a matrix, and has the advantages of light weight, high specific strength, high rigidity, functional designability and the like. The aluminum-based porous composite material shows excellent stress platform effect under dynamic load, has obviously improved energy absorption performance compared with foamed aluminum, and accords with the material selection and development trend of new materials in the field of impact protection engineering materials.
In the application of impact resistance protection, the buffering energy-absorbing protection material is applied to various complex environments from quasi-static state to dynamic load, and the energy absorption process of the protection material is required to be as mild as possible in order to ensure the high-efficiency safety of a protected structure. However, the existing aluminum-based porous composite material always has a large stress peak value when being impacted, and each micro-area component tends to be crushed in a short-time linkage manner, so that the impact energy is not favorably alleviated and absorbed.
In view of this, the invention is particularly proposed.

The composite material with the hollow microspheres distributed in a gradient or periodic manner can be prepared by the preparation method, the interlayer interface combination is good, the continuous transmission of impact load is facilitated, and the material has more excellent buffering and energy-absorbing performance.
The inventor creatively discovers that: due to the macroscopic isotropy of the porous composite material with the single structure, a larger stress peak value always exists when the porous composite material is impacted, and the components of each micro-area tend to be crushed in a linkage manner in a short time, so that the porous composite material is not beneficial to the relaxation and absorption of impact energy. The invention introduces gradient distribution in the structure to form function gradient, effectively reduces local stress concentration when receiving impact load, and has time delay effect on impact wave, thereby better buffering and energy absorption.

Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below. The examples, in which specific conditions are not specified, were conducted under conventional conditions or conditions recommended by the manufacturer. The reagents or instruments used are not indicated by the manufacturer, and are all conventional products available commercially.
The embodiment of the invention provides a preparation method of an aluminum-based porous composite material, and refers to fig. 1, the method comprises the steps of preparing a plurality of groups of composite blank raw materials by using aluminum material powder and hollow microspheres with different proportions as main raw materials, paving the plurality of groups of composite blank raw materials in a mold layer by layer according to a pre-designed gradient or arrangement rule of the hollow microspheres, carrying out cold press molding, and filling an aluminum melt in gaps of a prefabricated blank body by matching with a pressure infiltration technology.
The method specifically comprises the following steps:
s1 preparation of composite blank raw material
According to the pre-designed distribution rule of the hollow microspheres, the aluminum material powder and the hollow microspheres with different proportions are respectively mixed to obtain a plurality of groups of composite blank raw materials. Specifically, the raw material of the composite green body is obtained by mixing aluminum material powder, hollow microspheres and an inorganic binder, and the aluminum material powder and the hollow microspheres are bonded into a whole by the binder, so that the subsequent laying is facilitated.
In a preferred embodiment, the aluminum material powder and the hollow microspheres are mixed for 2 to 4 hours, and then the inorganic binder is added for mixing for 4 to 12 hours. The aluminum material powder and the hollow microspheres are uniformly mixed, and then the inorganic binder is added for bonding, so that the distribution uniformity of the hollow microspheres is improved.
Furthermore, the addition amount of the inorganic binder is 3-5% of the total mass of the aluminum material powder and the hollow microspheres, and the effective mixing of the aluminum material powder and the hollow microspheres can be realized under the condition of the addition amount. Specifically, the inorganic binder is selected from at least one of liquid silicates, phosphates and borates; preferably a liquid silicate; more preferably a water glass binder.
It should be noted that the water glass binder is a soluble inorganic silicate, and is easy to undergo condensation polymerization reaction with carbon dioxide in the air to generate polysilicate with higher modulus and molecular weight, and meanwhile, due to volatilization of water in the water glass, the concentration of the silicate is increased, so that the occurrence of condensation polymerization reaction is accelerated, the effect of curing the blank is realized, finally, a-Si-O-Si-net-shaped skeleton gel structure is formed, high-permeability porosity is formed after water is completely volatilized, and the characteristics of through holes among blank raw material powders are retained, so that the subsequent aluminum melt infiltration of the blank is not affected.
Further, the hollow microspheres are selected from at least one of ceramic hollow microspheres, glass hollow microspheres and metal hollow microspheres with melting points higher than that of the aluminum material; the aluminum material powder is selected from at least one selected from the group consisting of 1 xxx-series aluminum alloys, 2 xxx-series aluminum alloys, 3 xxx-series aluminum alloys, 4 xxx-series aluminum alloys, 5 xxx-series aluminum alloys, 6 xxx-series aluminum alloys, and 7 xxx-series aluminum alloys, such as 1100 aluminum powder, 5a03 aluminum powder, 4032 aluminum powder, and 7075 aluminum powder. The hollow microspheres and the aluminum material powder are all suitable for the preparation method provided by the embodiment of the invention and are used for preparing the aluminum-based porous composite material.
The grain size of the hollow microsphere and the aluminum material powder can be selected widely, the grain size of the hollow microsphere is 16-1000 meshes, the grain size of the aluminum material powder is 150-1000 meshes, and gradient composite materials with different grain size distributions can be formed.
In some embodiments, the composite green body feedstock used to prepare the preform green body is selected from at least two of a high porosity feedstock, a mesoporous feedstock, and a low porosity feedstock; wherein, the volume fraction of the hollow microspheres in the high-porosity raw material is 60-90%, the volume fraction of the hollow microspheres in the medium-porosity raw material is 30-60%, and the volume fraction of the hollow microspheres in the low-porosity raw material is less than 30%. Specifically, the integral number of the hollow microspheres refers to the proportion of the volume of the hollow microspheres in the total volume of the two main raw materials when the raw materials are weighed.
It should be noted that the plurality of groups of composite green body raw materials may include three raw materials, i.e., a high-porosity raw material, a medium-porosity raw material and a low-porosity raw material, or may include only two raw materials, i.e., a 1-n group of high-porosity raw materials and a 1-n group of medium-porosity raw materials, e.g., a 1-n group of high-porosity raw materials and a 1-n group of low-porosity raw materials, e.g., a 1-n group of medium-porosity raw materials and a 1-n group of low-porosity. That is, the total number of the raw materials of the composite blank is not limited, and the number of the raw materials of each kind is also not limited, and the raw materials can be configured according to a preset design rule.
Preferably, the high-porosity raw material is prepared by mixing aluminum material powder with small particle size and hollow microspheres with different particle sizes, and the aluminum material powder with small particle size has a particle size of 800-1000 meshes so as to fill the small-particle size hollow microspheres in the gaps of the large-particle size hollow microspheres.
S2, forming of prefabricated blank
And paving a plurality of groups of composite blank raw materials in a mould layer by layer and carrying out cold press molding to obtain a prefabricated blank, wherein the operation pressure of the cold press molding is 5-30MPa, and the operation pressure of the cold press molding is not too high so as to form a certain pore, and impregnating the pore with an aluminum melt.
The number of the layers paved by the composite green body raw materials is 2-10, and can be 2, 3, 5, 7, 10 and the like, and the specific number of the layers is not limited.
In some embodiments, drying is performed after cold press forming to remove moisture from the binder to provide a cleaner composite. The drying temperature is 60-100 ℃, and the drying time is 4-12h, so as to more fully remove the water in the binder.
S3 preparation of aluminum melt
The aluminum melt is obtained by melting an aluminum material having the same composition as the aluminum material powder, so that the components of the introduced aluminum melt and the aluminum material powder are the same.
In some embodiments, the smelting temperature is 700-.
S4 impregnation composite
And (3) pressurizing and infiltrating the prefabricated blank body by adopting the aluminum melt, so as to compactly fill the gap of the prefabricated blank body by adopting the aluminum melt. The process of pressure infiltration includes: and heating the prefabricated blank body to 550-650 ℃, preheating for 1-3h, pouring the aluminum melt into the prefabricated blank body, applying pressure and maintaining the pressure until natural cooling is performed, so that the aluminum melt is fully filled into the gap of the prefabricated blank body.
In a preferred embodiment, the ratio of the applied pressure to the compressive strength of the hollow microspheres during pressure infiltration is 70-80: 100. The applied pressure needs to be set according to the compressive strength of the hollow microspheres, and is generally preferably 20 to 30 percent less than the compressive strength of the hollow microspheres. If the applied pressure is too large, the hollow microspheres can be broken, so that the porosity is too low, and the buffering and energy-absorbing performance of the composite material is influenced; if the applied pressure is too low, the filling effect of the aluminum melt is not sufficiently dense.
It is to be noted that, if two or more types of hollow microspheres are selected, the magnitude of the applied pressure is determined based on the hollow microspheres having a small compressive strength.
Optionally, after the hold pressure time is over, cooling and demolding are performed. The cooling method is not limited, and a natural cooling method may be used.
S5, heat treatment
In some embodiments, the method further comprises the step of carrying out heat treatment on the composite material after the pressure impregnation, wherein the heat treatment schedule is matched with the type of the aluminum material powder. If the 1100 aluminum alloy is not heat-treatable strengthened, heat treatment is not needed; such as 4032 aluminum alloy, is subjected to a T6 heat treatment for further strengthening.
The embodiment of the invention also provides an aluminum-based porous composite material prepared by the preparation method. The invention realizes the construction of the internal structure gradient of the aluminum-based porous composite material by regulating the ladder-type arrangement of the volume fraction and the grain size distribution of the hollow microspheres, and the volume fraction or the grain size distribution of the hollow microspheres in the prepared aluminum-based porous composite material is in gradient distribution or periodic arrangement along the axial direction.
It should be noted that the aluminum-based porous composite material prepared by the embodiment of the invention introduces gradient distribution in the structure to form a function gradient, effectively reduces local stress concentration when being subjected to impact load, and has a delay effect on impact waves, so that the aluminum-based porous composite material can better buffer and absorb energy, and can be applied to the preparation of buffer and energy-absorbing materials.
