Abstract
A flux used for refining RE-contained Mg alloy is prepared from high-purity NaCl, KCl, CaF2, BaCl2 and mixed RE chloride through smelting in graphite or stainless steel crucible in electric furnace, stirring, cooling, pouring in condensing mould, cooling, demoulding, and crushing. Its advantages are high smelting point, long stay time on the surface of molten metal, no chemical reaction on RE, and high refining effect.
Description
Use when [technical field] the present invention relates to a kind of magnesium alloy smelting that contains rare earth element, casting fire-retardant, anti-oxidant and have the flux of refining effect belongs to metallic substance and metallurgical class field.
[background technology 1 MAGNESIUM METAL chemical property is active; magnesium and magnesium alloy are in the melting and casting process; chemical reaction very easily takes place with airborne oxygen, nitrogen, aqueous vapor etc. in fused magnesium liquid; if bath surface is not protected; can very fast oxidizing fire near 700 ℃ of temperature the time, cause magnesium liquid scaling loss, the magnesium alloy oxide inclusion is serious even magnesium melt combustion explosion.Therefore, when magnesium alloy smelting, must carry out fire-retardant and refining, guarantee to obtain qualified magnesium alloy ingot its melt.In the magnesium alloy smelting process, contain the MgCl of heterogeneity the protection flux commonly used (as the RJ2 flux that generally adopts)
2, alkali such as KCl and alkaline-earth metal halogen, MgCl wherein
2Be the main component of flux, content is more than 40%~50%.When melting contains the magnesium alloy of rare earth composition, main component MgCl in rare earth element meeting in the alloy and the flux
2Chemical reaction takes place and cause the heavy losses of rare earth, the loss of rare earth composition sometimes can reach 15~30% even more serious.Especially when higher Mg-RE (rare earth) alloy of preparation content of rare earth; because the fusing point of rare earth is generally than higher; the temperature of alloy melting generally can be brought up to more than 850 ℃; when adopting common flux protection; the flux volatilization is serious; can't play well anti-oxidant fire-retardant and refining effect, and melting rare earth and MgCl have been aggravated under the high temperature
2Reaction and cause the scaling loss of rare earth further to increase, can't guarantee the recovery rate of rare earth and the quality of final magnesium alloy ingot.
Chinese patent 00125301.8 discloses the foaming flux that a kind of Mg-Al-Zn of being primarily aimed at alloy uses, and this flux comprises MgCl
2, NaCl, KCl, CaF
2, CaCl
2And the carbonate whipping agent etc., MgCl in the flux
2Content is 45%~75%, and the inert gas blown by whipping agent produces keeps the covering protection effect to magnesium liquid.But in this flux also mainly with MgCl
2Be main component, also exist rare earth and its reaction to cause the problem of loss.
Fire-retardant when [summary of the invention] cast smelting rare-earth-contained magnesium alloy at general flux, refining effect is undesirable, MgCl in the flux especially
2Can produce the problem that chemical reaction causes the rare earth loss with rare earth etc. main component, the invention provides a kind of flux that is exclusively used in preparation rare-earth-contained magnesium alloy (Mg-RE alloy).
It is technical pure or chemical pure NaCl, KCl, CaF that the present invention selects purity for use
2, BaCl
2And mixed rare earth chlorides is a raw material, under 100~120 ℃, in loft drier, remove planar water, even by the certain quality percentage mix, in resistance furnace, adopt graphite or Stainless Steel Crucible fusing, 700~800 ℃ of temperature of fusion, fully stir the fusing back fully, comes out of the stove after melt liquid is cooled to 600 ℃ and pour the condensation mould into, is cooled to the room temperature fragmentation and promptly obtains flux.
Each composition quality percentage ratio is in the flux: NaCl:10~20%; KCl:50~80%; CaF
2: 1~10%; BaCl
2: 1~10%; Rare earth chloride 2~10%, wherein rare earth chloride can be the mixed chloride of Cerium II Chloride, Lanthanum trichloride, rich lanthanum or rich neodymium.
The present invention has the fusing point higher than general flux; adopting differential thermal analysis to detect the flux fusing point is 540 ℃; fusing point than common flux is high more than 100 ℃; help prolonging after the flux melts in the magnesium liquid surface residence time; thereby play better fire-resisting protection effect, and do not have obvious chemical reaction with rare earth element in the magnesium alloy, the recovery rate that makes rare earth element is brought up to more than 90% from original 50%~75%; and good refining effect is arranged, can prepare high-quality qualified magnesium alloy ingot.
