Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of nonferrous metals, in particular to a high-forming baking-resistant 5xxx series aluminum alloy plate and a preparation method thereof.
Background
With the continuous progress of light weight in the automobile field, aluminum alloy has a series of excellent characteristics such as high specific strength, good corrosion resistance, good processability, extremely high recyclability and the like, and becomes an optimal material for light weight of transportation. The 5xxx series aluminum alloy has good forming performance and higher strength, can be used for manufacturing parts with complex shapes, and has great development potential in application to automobiles. Compared with the traditional steel, the difficulty of popularization and application of the existing aluminum alloy automobile plate is that the cost of parts is far higher than that of the traditional steel, the formability is not as good as that of a steel plate, and the automobile parts with complex structures are difficult to prepare. At present, 5182 and 5754 alloys are mainly used for automobile body structural parts, the elongation of the alloys is generally lower than 28%, the forming requirements of complex structural parts are difficult to meet, and the strength of the finished products is reduced after baking finish, so that the application of 5xxx series alloys is limited.
At present, researchers in patents CN103255323 and CN104862551 have added Cu and Zn elements to improve the strength of Al-Mg series alloy after baking finish, but the former after straightening is subjected to stress relief annealing at 240-300 ℃ to cause solid-dissolved Cu and Zn atoms to be rapidly precipitated to form coarse second phases, which results in greatly reduced strengthening effect; the content of Cu and Zn elements is further improved, the elongation is low, the pre-aging time of 60-100 ℃/6-8 h is increased, the cost is increased, the application of the alloy in the automobile industry is limited, the high-temperature brittleness of the alloy is increased by adding more Cu and Zn elements in the high-Mg alloy, the processing cost is further increased, and the practical application is greatly limited. In patents CN111593236 and CN103911531, a small amount of Cu element is also added, but bake hardening performance is not examined, and the latter has a lower elongation due to a higher Mn content.
In addition, patent CN103320729B discloses a composition and processing technology of 5182 type aluminum alloy, which realizes the purpose of improving ludwiss strip by optimizing the composition and processing technology, but the material does not contain Cu and has low Mg content, so that the material has low strength and cannot be subjected to baking finish treatment, thereby affecting further high-end application of the material. Patent US5441582 provides a bake hardenable 5 series aluminium alloy with a Cu content of 0.3-1.0 wt.%, which gives the material a certain bake hardening effect and reduces the adverse effects on natural ageing. However, because the Mg content in the material is low (1.5-3.5 wt.%), the overall strength of the material after baking is low (the yield strength is lower than 150 MPa). Patent US5460666 provides an Al-Mg-Si-Cu alloy with a Mg content of 1.5-3.5 wt.% and a Cu content of 0.3-1.0 wt.%, and similar to the alloy of US5441582, the yield strength after bake hardening of the material is also substantially lower than 150 MPa.
From the search of the related inventions at home and abroad, the alloy has unreasonable components and process design, so that the mechanical property of the alloy is insufficient or the baking and hardening effects are not good; or the point of attention is that the Luders strip of the 5xxx series aluminum alloy material is eliminated, the guarantee of the material baking hardening performance is neglected, and the deficiency of the material strength performance is caused.

As described in the background of the invention, the problem that 5xxx series aluminum alloys have difficulty in simultaneously achieving formability, baking resistance and mechanical properties exists in the prior art. In order to solve the above problems, in an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a method of manufacturing a high-formability baking-resistant 5 xxx-series aluminum alloy sheet, including the steps of: step S1, mixing raw materials of the 5xxx series aluminum alloy and melting and casting ingots to obtain aluminum alloy cast ingots; wherein the aluminum alloy comprises the following components in percentage by weight: 5.0-7.5 wt.% of Mg, 0.15-0.6 wt.% of Cu, less than or equal to 0.1 wt.% of Si, 0.1-0.4 wt.% of Fe, 0.05-0.15 wt.% of Mn, less than or equal to 0.05 wt.% of Cr, less than or equal to 0.1 wt.% of Ti, less than or equal to 0.15 wt.% of the total of inevitable impurities, and the balance of Al; step S2, performing two-stage homogenization treatment on the aluminum alloy cast ingot, wherein in the two-stage homogenization treatment, the temperature is increased to 420-445 ℃ at a speed of 25-60 ℃/h, the temperature is kept for 2-4 h, the first homogenization treatment is performed, then the temperature is increased to 500-540 ℃ at a speed of 20-30 ℃/h, the temperature is kept for 4-10 h, and the second homogenization treatment is performed; step S3, carrying out hot rolling on the homogenized cast ingot to obtain a hot rolled plate; step S4, performing intermediate annealing, cold rolling, final annealing and cooling on the hot rolled plate to obtain a high-forming baking-resistant 5xxx series aluminum alloy; in the second homogenization treatment, when the weight percentage of Mn in the aluminum alloy is more than or equal to 0.05 wt.% and less than 0.1 wt.%, heating to 500-530 ℃ at the speed of 20-30 ℃/h, and preserving heat for 4-10 h; when the weight percentage of Mn in the aluminum alloy is more than or equal to 0.1 wt.% and less than 0.15 wt.%, heating to 520-540 ℃ at the speed of 20-30 ℃/h, and preserving heat for 6-10 h.
Mg is a main strengthening element of the 5xxx aluminum alloy, and improves the yield strength of the alloy plate mainly by a solid solution strengthening method. With Mg content below 5.0 wt.%, the strength of the alloy is low; however, when the Mg content exceeds 7.5 wt.%, the castability is seriously deteriorated. Therefore, the Mg content is controlled to be 5.0-7.5 wt.%. Cu has the effects of solid solution strengthening and time effectiveness, and a small amount of Cu element is added into the 5xxx series alloy, so that the alloy is not softened after being subjected to paint baking treatment, but the Cu element can seriously reduce the hot working performance of the high Mg alloy and increase the high-temperature crack tendency during welding, and therefore, the Cu content is controlled to be 0.15-0.5 wt.%. The Mg and Cu contents of the invention exceed the component system of the existing 5023 aluminum alloy, the Mg content exceeds the highest Mg content of the existing commercial wrought 5 aluminum alloy, but the innovative process of the invention promotes the tissue optimization, so the material of the invention does not have the phenomenon of the Luders strip common in the conventional high-Mg aluminum alloy material.
Mn mainly plays a role in inhibiting recrystallization in the alloy, can improve the strength of the material and the corrosion resistance, but the plasticity of the alloy can be obviously reduced due to the excessively high content of Mn, so that the content of Mn is not higher than 0.2 wt.%, and in order to further improve the strength performance of the material, the content of Mn is controlled to be 0.05-0.15 wt.%, and meanwhile, a multistage homogenization process is adopted, and a corresponding second homogenization process is adopted particularly for aluminum alloy materials with different Mn contents, so that the size and distribution of Mn-containing particles can be regulated, the full diffusion of solute elements is ensured, the abnormal growth of crystal grains is avoided, and the comprehensive performance of the prepared aluminum alloy is further improved.
Fe is an impurity element, which adversely affects the elongation of the aluminum alloy sheet of the present invention, and thus is controlled to 0.2 wt.% or less. Si is a harmful impurity in 5xxx alloys and is susceptible to form Mg with Mg2Si phase, and because of the higher Mg content in the alloy of the invention, the Mg content is reduced2The solubility of Si phase in matrix can not only not strengthen but also reduce the plasticity of alloy, so that Si is controlled to be less than or equal to 0.1 wt.%.
According to the invention, through optimizing the main alloy elements and the content of the main alloy elements of the 5xxx series aluminum alloy, the material has remarkable baking and hardening capacity, and the formation of a deformation zone is hindered; and a differential multistage homogenization process is adopted for materials with different Mn contents, so that the solute elements are fully diffused, and the grains are not abnormally grown. The grain size is controlled to be 30-70 mu m through an intermediate annealing and final annealing system, YPE is reduced to 0, and the material has good formability and a surface with high forming quality. Specifically, the alloy strength is improved by increasing the content of Mg; the baking resistance of the alloy is improved by improving the Cu content; strictly controlling the Mn content to improve the forming performance of the alloy, optimizing the rolling and annealing process, simultaneously improving the mechanical property and the forming performance of the alloy, and preparing the 5xxx series alloy with high strength, baking resistance, easy forming, YPE of 0 and good standing stability. In conclusion, the plate has good forming performance before baking, the yield strength is 110-140 MPa, the elongation is larger than or equal to 30%, the strain hardening index is larger than or equal to 0.34, the average plastic strain ratio is larger than or equal to 0.70, the YPE is 0, the standing stability is good, the tensile strength of the alloy after the material is baked is larger than or equal to 300MPa, the yield strength is improved by larger than or equal to 45MPa compared with that before baking, the baking and hardening capacity is remarkable, and the comprehensive performance of the plate is obviously better than that of the existing 5xxx series aluminum alloy material.

In order to further exert the strengthening effect of Mg and Cu and match the recrystallization inhibiting effect of Mn in the alloy, so as to further improve the baking performance of the aluminum alloy plate, in a preferred embodiment, the Mg/Mn ratio in the aluminum alloy is (50-120): 1 by weight percent, and the Cu/Mn ratio in the aluminum alloy is (1-6): 1 by weight percent.
The homogenization treatment is a key factor for controlling the strength and the formability of the high-Mg alloy, can eliminate the microsegregation of Mg element and dissolve the non-equilibrium low-melting eutectic structure; meanwhile, the homogenization treatment can ensure that Mn-containing particles are dispersed and precipitated uniformly, which is beneficial to controlling the crystal grain structure in the rolling process. Generally, the slow heating rate is favorable for promoting the precipitation of dispersed particles, and the beta primary phase is not easy to melt due to the too fast heating rate. In a preferred embodiment, in the first homogenization treatment, the temperature is raised to 430-440 ℃ at a rate of 30-60 ℃/h, and the temperature is maintained for 3-4 h, and then the first homogenization treatment is performed, and then the second homogenization treatment is performed. The purpose of adopting two-stage heating and controlling the heating rate is as follows: eliminating a eutectic phase with a low melting point through first homogenization treatment, promoting nucleation and precipitation of a Mn-containing phase, and preparing for controlling crystal grains in a subsequent deformation process; the second homogenization treatment is performed to dissolve Mg as much as possible2Si phase and ensures that the alloy does not grow abnormally. Through the collocation of the process parameters, a better homogenization effect can be achieved.
Along with the increase of the content of Mn, the temperature of the abnormal growth of crystal grains is increased, in order to avoid the influence of the large abnormal growth of the crystal grains on the performance of the aluminum alloy plate, in a preferred embodiment, in the second homogenization treatment, when the weight percentage of Mn in the aluminum alloy is 0.05-0.08 wt.%, the temperature is increased to 500-510 ℃ at the speed of 20-30 ℃/h, and the temperature is kept for 4-10 h; when the weight percentage of Mn in the aluminum alloy is 0.1-0.15 wt.%, the temperature is raised to 520-530 ℃ at the rate of 20-30 ℃/h, and the temperature is preserved for 6-10 h.
The control of the initial rolling temperature is beneficial to plastic deformation and the control of the final rolling temperature of the material, if the initial rolling temperature is too low, the hot working performance of the alloy can be reduced, and the phenomena of cracking, edge cracking and the like in the rolling process can be easily caused; and the excessively low finish rolling temperature is not beneficial to improving the forming performance of the subsequent plate, so in a preferred embodiment, the initial rolling temperature of the hot rolling process is controlled to be 460-520 ℃, the finish rolling temperature is more than or equal to 300 ℃, the deformation rate of the cast ingot is 1-3%, and the total deformation is more than or equal to 95%.

And (3) carrying out final annealing treatment on the plate by adopting a continuous furnace, and rapidly cooling, thereby being beneficial to controlling the grain size to be 30-70 mu m and simultaneously being beneficial to ensuring that the YPE of the plate can be completely eliminated.
