Description

Aluminum alloy for anodic oxidation and production process thereof
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of aluminum alloy manufacturing, in particular to an aluminum alloy for anodic oxidation and a production process thereof.
Background
The anodic oxidation is a process of oxidizing the surface of an aluminum product (anode) to form an aluminum oxide film with the thickness of 4-30um under the action of external current under the corresponding electrolyte (such as sulfuric acid, chromic acid, oxalic acid and the like) and specific process conditions by taking aluminum or aluminum alloy as an anode so as to improve the corrosion resistance, the wear resistance, the high temperature resistance and the decorative effect of the surface of the aluminum profile. Cast aluminum alloys, including die castings, generally have a relatively high silicon content, and anodized films are generally dark in color, colorless transparent oxide films cannot be obtained, and the color of the anodized film ranges from light gray to dark gray as the silicon content increases. Therefore, the conventional cast aluminum alloy is not suitable for improving the corrosion resistance, the wear resistance, the high temperature resistance and the decorative effect of the aluminum alloy surface by using an anodic oxidation mode.
Disclosure of Invention

The application mainly starts from the oxidation requirement, develops a die-casting aluminum alloy cast ingot which can be used for anodic oxidation, and the subsequent die-casting machine can lead the aluminum alloy die-casting machine to have higher corrosion resistance, hardness, insulativity and decoration through the anodic oxidation process, thereby expanding the application field and improving the performance and quality of products.
In a first aspect, the present application provides a production process of an aluminum alloy for anodic oxidation, and adopts the following technical scheme.
A process for producing an aluminum alloy useful for anodic oxidation, the process comprising:
Smelting: melting an aluminum alloy raw material to obtain an aluminum melt; the aluminum alloy raw materials comprise the following components in percentage by mass: 12-14% of Si, 0.5-1% of Fe, 0.03-0.1% of Cu, less than or equal to 0.5% of Mn, 0.1-0.8% of Mg, less than or equal to 0.1% of Cr, 0.01-0.05% of Zn, 0.01-0.05% of Ti, and the balance of aluminum and unavoidable impurities;
Refining: controlling the hydrogen content of the aluminum melt to be 0.25-0.35ml/100gAl;
On-line degassing: removing hydrogen in the aluminum melt after refining to ensure that the hydrogen content of the aluminum melt is less than or equal to 0.125ml/100gAl;

The aluminum alloy raw material can be recycled waste, the waste is reused after the production process is carried out, and the prepared casting material can be anodized to prepare various products.
During smelting, water in fuel and water produced by combustion are easy to enter an aluminum melt, high-temperature aluminum liquid and water molecules dispersed in the high-temperature aluminum liquid are subjected to chemical reaction to generate hydrogen, hydrogen atoms are formed in the aluminum melt, and the hydrogen atoms have higher solubility in the aluminum melt, so that the hydrogen becomes a main component of gas impurities adsorbed by the aluminum melt, and the ratio of the hydrogen to the water is about 85%. During solidification of the aluminum melt, hydrogen gradually precipitates in the form of hydrogen gas to cause pores, cracks, etc. in the aluminum alloy, so that the hydrogen content in the aluminum melt is controlled before die casting. However, hydrogen also reduces metal oxide impurities such as alumina to a metallic state, so that the aluminum melt can be controlled to retain a certain hydrogen content during the refining process. The hydrogen content of the aluminum melt can be detected on line by using an aluminum melt hydrogen meter. The proposal controls the hydrogen content of the aluminum melt to be 0.25-0.35ml/100gAl during refining, can reduce some metal oxides, improves the purity of metal, controls the hydrogen content of the aluminum melt to be less than or equal to 0.125ml/100gAl after refining, and reduces the adverse phenomena of casting bubbles and the like formed after die casting. The online degassing machine can be used for degassing, inert gases such as nitrogen, argon and the like are introduced into the aluminum melt by the online degassing machine to form bubbles, and hydrogen in the melt is diffused into the bubbles under the action of partial pressure difference and is removed along with the floating of the bubbles, so that the purpose of degassing is achieved.
