As can be seen from FIGS. 15-16, the aluminum alloy mainly forms Mg 2 The Si phase forms grains with sharp boundaries between grains, and the primary Si element forms grains with needle-like and flake-like structures between grains, and the grain size is uniform, and the yield strength of polycrystal is inversely proportional to the square root of the grain size according to Hall-Petch relation. It can be seen that when Mg 2 The smaller the Si phase grain size, the greater the yield strength thereof, from Mg 2 The fibrous Si which is biased in the Si crystal grains is subjected to heat treatment and extrusion deformation to Mg 2 The Si grains act as a lubricant, thereby improving the deformability of the aluminum alloy. The added chromium element can form Fe-Cr phase with the iron element in the chromium element, on one hand, the iron pair is reducedThe Fe-Cr phase formed next is used as a hard phase, so that the strength of the alloy is improved. The addition of copper, silicon, magnesium, chromium, zinc and other elements can lead Al to be precipitated in the structure of the aluminum alloy 2 Cu,Mg 5 Si 4 Al 2 ,Mg 2 Si,MgZn 2 And intermetallic compounds that can improve the strength of the aluminum alloy when heated by extrusion. The addition of erbium and rare earth elements into aluminum alloy can obviously improve the structure of the alloy, improve the thermal stability and tensile property of the aluminum alloy, and the addition of trace erbium and zirconium also plays a role in refining grains and improves the recrystallization temperature of the aluminum alloy by about 50 ℃. And in aluminum alloys, it is often referred to as Al 3 In the form of Er particles, while Al 3 Er particles and Al 3 Zr particle structures are all cubic crystal systems, and have the characteristics of high melting point and good stability, when the aluminum alloy is cooled, primary Al 3 Er particles and Al 3 Zr particles are used as the core of heterogeneous nucleation, so that the nucleation rate is improved, and the effect of fine grain strengthening is achieved. Al distributed in fine dispersion at the same time 3 Er particles and Al 3 Zr particles precipitate and strengthen the effect in crystal boundary and crystal. And these fine dispersions of Al during the extrusion deformation heat treatment 3 Er particles and Al 3 The strengthening effect of the substructure of Zr particles greatly improves the strength of the aluminum alloy, as shown in figures 17-18, wherein the Al is dispersed 3 Er particles and Al 3 Zr particles. At the same time, the Al is dispersed 3 Er particles and Al 3 Zr particles play a role in pinning dislocation and subgrain boundary, so that recrystallization can be effectively suppressed and recrystallized grains can be refined. The mechanism of action of the titanium is the same as that of erbium and zirconium, and the titanium plays the same role.
