The reagents or apparatus used were conventional products commercially available without the manufacturer's attention.
Example 1
The embodiment provides a preparation method of a support block for a battery pack of an aluminum alloy ceramic composite material, wherein a process flow chart is shown in fig. 8, and the steps are as follows:
(1) Designing a supporting block structure aiming at a certain battery pack product structure, and correspondingly designing a mould and manufacturing the mould;
(2) As the aluminum alloy material, 6061 alloy particles (particle size Dv50 of 5 μm) and SiC particles (particle size Dv50 of 5 μm) were selected as the ceramic material, and the volume ratio of 6061 alloy particles to SiC particles was 3:1 (i.e., 25% by volume of SiC particles); mixing 6061 alloy particles and SiC particles in ball milling equipment for ball milling, wherein the ball milling parameters are 800r/min, the ball milling time is 2 hours, and after ball milling, the powder and a wax-based binder (comprising 70wt% of paraffin, 20 wt% of microcrystalline wax and 10wt% of methyl ethyl ketone) are uniformly mixed, and the volume percentage of the wax-based binder is 30% for standby;
(3) Mixing the step (2) by using injection molding equipment, and then performing powder injection molding, namely injecting the mixture into the die manufactured in the step (1) to manufacture a green body of the supporting block; and (3) placing the green body of the support block into a vacuum oven, baking and degreasing at 300 ℃, and then placing the degreased blank into a vacuum sintering furnace for sintering at 580 ℃ to prepare a finished support block product.
The supporting blocks of examples 2 to 12 and the supporting block of comparative example 1 are similar to the manufacturing method of example 1, mainly differing in the kind of aluminum alloy material, the kind of ceramic material, the proportion of ceramic material, the kind of binder, the kind of aluminum alloy material, the grain size of ceramic material, and the like. The details are shown in table 1 below.
The support blocks of examples 1-12 and the support block of comparative example 1 were tested for modulus of elasticity, tensile strength, yield strength, and elongation, as follows:
(1) Modulus of elasticity: the elastic modulus is measured by an ultrasonic measurement method according to national standard GB/T38897-2020.
(2) Tensile strength, yield strength and elongation test: the measurement was carried out by a tensile tester according to national standard GB/T228.1-2021.
The test results are shown in table 1 below:
TABLE 1
Note that: the composition of the "plastic-based" binder in example 12 is: 72wt% polystyrene, 15wt% polystyrene, 10wt% polyethylene and 3wt% stearic acid.
As can be seen from the comparison between the comparative example 1 and the examples, the ceramic material is introduced into the aluminum alloy material, so that the elastic modulus, the tensile strength and the yield strength of the material can be obviously improved, and meanwhile, the higher elongation is maintained, so that the engineering use is satisfied.
As is clear from the comparison between comparative example 2 and examples, the ceramic material has a volume percentage that is too low, and the elastic modulus, tensile strength and yield strength of the material are significantly reduced although the elongation is somewhat increased.
As is clear from the comparison between comparative example 3 and examples, the ceramic material has an excessively high volume percentage, and although the elastic modulus, tensile strength and yield strength of the material are improved, the elongation is low, which is not suitable for engineering use.
