Abstract

A technology for fining the solidified Al-alloy structure includes proportioning raw materials, conventional smeling, removing slags and gas, refining, casting while applying a pulse electric field, and cooling.

Description

A kind of thinning process of aluminum alloy solidification tissue
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of thinning process of aluminum alloy solidification tissue, belong to metal alloy manufacturing process and rotten treatment process field.
Background technology
To the research of metal structure refinement technology and discussion is one of crucial research field in the metal material research, because grain refinement is the unique channel that improves the material plasticity index under the prerequisite of expendable material intensity index not.The method of existing metal structure refinement mainly contains two classes: the one, and chemical refinement method, this method are to add alterant in liquid metal, comprise nucleating agent and the inhibitor etc. of growing up; The 2nd, the physical thinning method, or claim dynamic method, as vibratory drilling method, comprise mechanical oscillation, electric and magnetic oscillation and sound wave or ultrasonic vibration etc.; Paddling process comprises mechanical agitation, electromagnetism or magnetic field stirring and bubble agitation etc.; Swing method comprises swing of casting mold waveform and periodic oscillations etc.Said method has its weak point, and the first for various reasons, causes the even segregation phenomena of chemical constituent and tissue odds, even forms nonmetal inclusion because the adding of additive will be introduced impurity element in process of setting; Two to be that the physical method equipment needed thereby that has is huge cause investment bigger for it, and as mechanical agitation, mechanical oscillation etc. are uneconomical; The then power consumption that has is big, and equipment is also complicated, as electric and magnetic oscillation, and electromagnetic agitation etc.
It is documented, Misra had used the pulse current technology first in the Pb-Sb-Sn solidification of Al in 1984, applied DC current and alternating current, the result observes the alloy that solidifies under the effect of electric pulse and has suppressed separating out of primary phase, organizes obvious refinement.Pulse current is used for the more low melting point (<200 ℃) that concentrates on of research of thinning metal solidification texture, is convenient to the Pb-Sn alloy of experimental study.Once there was the scholar to probe into of the influence of pulse inoculation, but was only limited to of the influence of research burst process time the crystalline phase tissue to Al-0.5%Cu alloy graining structure.The LY12 aluminum alloy solidification tissue that other has the scholar also to study under pulse current and the pulsed magnetic field action compares, and they have only roughly studied the influence of pulse current density size to crystallite dimension.Their these development tests do not have the concrete major parameter that system studies pulse current all sidedly, as the change of pulse width and the pulse frequency regularity influence to the aluminum alloy solidification structure refinement.
Summary of the invention
The thinning process that the purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of aluminum alloy solidification tissue particularly provides the process of a kind of impulse electric field refinement aluminum alloy organization; Another object of the present invention provides the comparatively concrete major parameter of pulse current of system, to obtain the best thinning effect of aluminum alloy organization.
It is higher that the present invention is applied to fusing point with the electric pulse technology first, and on the bigger Birmasil of experiment difficulty, Birmasil is a kind of aluminum alloy materials of extensive use in the production practices.
The invention provides the thinning process of a sharp aluminum alloy solidification tissue, comprise aluminium alloy batching through the fusing of routine, remove slag, degasification, each operation of refining, it is characterized in that in the cast alloy process, applying an impulse electric field, in the aluminium alloy mother liquor, insert graphite electrode, feed pulse direct current, and the parameter of regulating impulse electric current, make it naturally cool to room temperature at last, can obtain the aluminum alloy blank of grain refinement, even tissue.The temperature of aluminium alloy mother liquor when inserting graphite electrode is 650-750 ℃, and the parameter of the pulse direct current that is fed is: pulse frequency 100-2000Hz, and pulse width is 1/100-1/5, current density is 10-2000A/cm 2
By the processing of impulse electric field, the solidified structure of aluminium alloy all can obtain refinement in various degree, and the size of crystal grain has bigger influence to the strength and toughness of material.Facts have proved that the very little change amount of crystal grain but has very big influence to the intensity and the toughness of material.
The advantage of the inventive method is by simple process and simple production equipment, can change the metallographic structure with the refinement aluminium alloy, improves the mechanical property of aluminum alloy materials, and is adapted to the processing and forming of follow-up part.In addition, once used copper electrode in the past, its meeting and aluminium alloy mother liquor generation chemical reaction is implemented graphite electrode and adopt among the present invention, and this electrode and aluminium alloy mother liquor any chemical reaction can not take place and can not pollute the aluminium alloy mother liquor.
The specific embodiment
Now the specific embodiment of the inventive method is described in the back: earlier with the aluminium alloy batching through the fusing of routine, remove slag, take out alloy liquid after the degasification, refining, when being in temperature range between 650-750 ℃, inserts in the aluminium alloy mother liquor graphite electrode, connect graphite electrode and impulse electric field signal generation apparatus, turn on the power switch, in the aluminium alloy mother liquor, feed pulse direct current, and the parameter of regulating impulse electric current, make it naturally cool to room temperature at last, can obtain the aluminum alloy blank of grain refinement, even tissue.
Be further described below in conjunction with embodiments of the invention.
The chemical composition of the aluminium alloy that the inventive method is used is that Al-Si is a Birmasil, but also applicable to Al-Mg system, Al-Cu system, Al-Zn line aluminium alloy.
The aluminium alloy that the inventive method adopts is near the common cast aluminium ZL101 trade mark, and its chemical composition is:
????Al ????Si ????Mg ????Zn ????Cu ????Mn ????Fe ???Ti
Surplus ????6.83 ????0.35 ????0.17 ????0.0036 ????0.0035 ????0.1 ???<0.001
Embodiment one
The aluminium alloy batching melts refining process as previously mentioned, and the aluminium alloy mother liquor of gained inserts graphite electrode between 650-750 ℃, feeds pulse direct current, and the parameter of regulating impulse electric current.Its pulse frequency is 1000Hz, and pulse width is 1/10, and current density is 20A/cm 2Naturally cool to room temperature, solidify the resulting aluminium alloy metallographic structure in back, through the metallography microscope sem observation, find that its white portion is primary-Al phase, present graininess or rosaceous mixed style, its black part is divided into eutectic structure, is tiny needle-like and sheet.
The aluminium alloy that aluminium alloy after employing the inventive method impulse electric field is handled and traditional routine are solidified, the two can do one relatively, the former as previously mentioned, primary phase and eutectic structure have all obtained obvious refinement, and the latter can find its α-Al phase, present tangible flourishing dendrite,, obviously feel to organize thick though its eutectic structure is needle-like and sheet.The former crystallite dimension is the 1/20-1/50 of latter's crystallite dimension.
