Description

Forming process and device for preparing heterogeneous semi-solid structure magnesium alloy
Technical Field

Background
The magnesium alloy has low density, is a high-quality lightweight metal material, can be used for structural parts to realize effective weight reduction, and has great application potential in the field of new energy automobiles which are vigorously developed. However, magnesium is a HCP crystal structure, has poor plastic deformation capability, and has single strengthening means in an as-cast state, and mainly depends on promoting grain refinement and second-phase strengthening in a microstructure, so that a formed structure is generally considered to be a uniform structure, namely a single-form structure transformation occurs under liquid die casting or semi-solid forming in the conventional alloying.
For the semi-solid technology, the good semi-solid structure with fine and spherical primary solid crystals has thixotropic property, and can effectively avoid gas coiling during high-speed filling, thereby greatly reducing casting pores and improving compactness, and the injection molding does not need to be melted or protective gas, thus being a safe, environment-friendly and efficient emerging process for magnesium alloy. However, in research and application, it is found that under the traditional semi-solid injection molding (Thixomolding) mode, a single path heating is generally adopted, namely, a magnesium material is gradually heated to be semi-solid by gradual continuous temperature rise of different heating sections, when the pulping amount required by a large-size part is large, the temperature of the heating section has to be raised, the heat preservation before injection is prolonged, even if the heating is very short, the semi-solid primary crystal of an alloy tissue grows up to form rose dendrites (rosette-like structures), and then the rose dendrites remain in the part, so that the magnesium material is very unfavorable for the alloy molding fluidity, plasticity and strength, ideal semi-solid tissue control cannot be realized, and the application of the semi-solid technology on a high-performance structural member is limited. In addition, the efficiency of single-path semi-solid slurry preparation is low, the magnesium alloy needs to absorb a large amount of heat, and a single feeding mode still has a beat bottleneck under the condition of limited diameter of a charging barrel, so that the injection molding production of large magnesium alloy parts is difficult to really meet.
