Description

Heat treatment method for inhibiting Al-Mg-Si-Cu-Mn-Cr aluminum alloy deformation recrystallization and coarse grains
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of preparation of aluminum alloy materials, in particular to a heat treatment method for inhibiting Al-Mg-Si-Cu-Mn-Cr aluminum alloy deformation recrystallization and coarse grains.
Background
In order to accelerate the process of energy conservation and emission reduction in the automobile industry, the average fuel consumption of a passenger car is reduced to 5L/100km in 2020 specified in 'passenger car fuel consumption limit' in China, and the fuel consumption of the passenger car is directly influenced by the quality of vehicle preparation, so that the requirement of each vehicle enterprise on the light weight of the vehicle is urgent. The development and application of lightweight materials are the most direct and effective methods for achieving lightweight automobiles. Aluminum alloy is used as a light weight material, can reduce the weight of an automobile by 30-60%, and is widely adopted by domestic and foreign vehicle enterprises, such as fuel vehicles of F150 of Ford, A8 of Audi, XF of Jaguar and the like, electric vehicles of Tesla and the like have high aluminizing rate, and particularly, ES8 of Michelia achieves 96.4% aluminizing rate. According to the forecast that the aluminum quantity for automobiles reaches 190 kg/automobile and the aluminum quantity for new energy automobiles reaches 200 kg/automobile in 2020, the aluminum alloy is increasingly becoming the first choice material for automobile manufacturers to lighten the weight. A 6 xxx-series (Al-Mg-Si-Cu-Mn-Cr) aluminum alloy is a preferred aluminum alloy material for automotive parts because of its excellent formability, workability, and corrosion resistance.
The light weight of the automobile chassis is beneficial to reducing oil consumption and improving the comfort of the whole automobile, and is also related to the driving safety of a driver, so that the chassis parts are required to have good comprehensive properties such as strength, rigidity, fatigue resistance and the like. In order to meet the urgent requirements of various vehicle enterprises on high-performance light parts, alloy materials with higher strength and better comprehensive performance are urgently needed to be developed. 6xxx alloys having international leading levels and being used in large numbers in automobiles have been developed in developed countries. At home, the product performance stability is obviously lower than that of the foreign alloy products, particularly the fatigue performance is poor, and the reason is that coarse recrystallized grains are formed. Applicants have effectively inhibited coarse recrystallization through alloying and manufacturing process control to produce higher performance 6xxx aluminum alloys to meet the requirements of automotive chassis parts.
Homogenization is an essential step in the industrial production of aluminum alloys, and aims to eliminate the segregation of elements in the material, dissolve crystalline phases, improve the formability of the material, and the like. The elimination of microsegregation inside the material is particularly important, and due to the microsegregation of elements inside the material, precipitated phases can be precipitated unevenly. In which the segregation of the alpha-Al (MnCr) Si phase is particularly severe and cannot be eliminated by the conventional single-stage homogenization heat treatment system. Since the precipitation of the alpha-Al (MnCr) Si phase is not uniform, the ability of the material to control dislocations and grain boundary movement is reduced, resulting in a reduction in the ability of the material to inhibit recrystallization, and the generation of many grains with large size differences. Non-uniformity in grain size causes a reduction in the overall strength and toughness of the material, and more importantly, the corrosion and fatigue resistance of the material. For automotive structural members, the two properties are particularly critical for long-term load-bearing service in corrosive environments. The method aims at solving the key industrial problem that the mechanical property of the alloy after deformation is low due to the fact that the existing Al-Mg-Si-Cu-Mn-Cr aluminum alloy is easy to generate coarse recrystallization in the deformation process.
