Description

The manufacture method of copper alloy
Technical field
The present invention relates to the manufactured copper alloy, the method for the copper base alloy of precipitation-hardenable especially, the hot extrusion of copper alloy that kept away rabbit in this method.
Background technology
The manufacturing of precipitation hardening alloy needs alloying element is joined operation stage in the sosoloid.General this combines with rapid quenching by independent solution annealing thermal treatment or with hot-work such as hot extrusion or hot rolling to be realized.According to this technology of having researched and developed, obtain sosoloid by control curing and with postcooling.
The excellent traditional method as copper-chromium (CuCr), copper-chromium-zirconium (CuCrZr) and copper-zirconium (CuZr) of copper base alloy of making precipitation-hardenable is: cast billet earlier, handle billet by hot extrusion then.U.S. Pat 4,421 has been described this processing in 570, is used for handling the material that uses in the method for making the continuous casting model.Typical conventional cast billet must be proofreaied and correct the defective that its surface exists by machining or other method for trimming before pushing.Further, depend on the billet casting condition, copper alloying element, chromium and/or zirconium may begin to be precipitated out from sosoloid.Therefore, the temperature that billet is heated to setting before clamp-oning billet in the water is very necessary.After extruding with bar drawing to given size, timeliness also further is drawn to final diameter (if desired).In some cases, bar drawing to given size can be configured as element then before timeliness.
Summary of the invention
The method that the objective of the invention is to overcome some shortcoming of prior art and obtain the alloy of improved manufactured copper base precipitation-hardenable, manufacture method as copper-chromium (CuCr), copper-chromium-zirconium (CuCrZr) and copper-zirconium (CuZr), this method obtains long foundry goods by using continuous casting, bar for example, rather than the casting billet, thereby shortened manufacturing processed.Essential characteristic of the present invention is documented in the appended claims.
The method according to this invention, by the alloy of continuous casting with copper base precipitation-hardenable, directly be cast as elongated foundry goods as copper-chromium (CuCr), copper-chromium-zirconium (CuCrZr) and copper-chromium (CuZr), this foundry goods advantageously has circle, rectangle or cyclic cross section substantially, preferably advantageously has the rod that external diameter is 8mm to 50mm.Foundry goods is drawn to predetermined size.With the product of this drawing under certain selectable mode further timeliness to obtain the finished product.The concrete grammar of timeliness for example is: solution annealing, direct forming are element or further are drawn into filament timeliness thermal treatment subsequently.
The alloy of copper base precipitation-hardenable to be made in the method for the invention comprises the chromium of 0.1~1.5 weight % and/or the zirconium of 0.01~0.25 weight %, the copper of surplus and common impurity.
In the method for the invention, continuous casting by level, vertically upward or vertically downward or in addition between level and vertical between certain direction on carry out.In order to describe technology of the present invention, term " continuous casting " is the casting that is used for describing the operate continuously of at least one elongate articles, this elongate articles advantageously has circle, rectangle or cyclic cross section substantially, and its thickness or external diameter be maximum for the further cold working of material.According to final dimensional requirement, can also cast other size or even other shape.When the continuous casting in use the inventive method, the very long foundry goods that casting obtains, its weight is up to 5 tons, and by comparison, the typical weight of the casting billet that preparation is pushed in the prior art is 160kg.Do not need to resemble pressing steps of the prior art when adopting method of the present invention, and avoided solution treatment at least in one embodiment.In addition, because foundry goods has the shape with elongate articles, promptly than casting billet more near the final size of foundry goods, the drawing process of foundry goods also has been shortened.
When using method of the present invention,, alloying element chromium and/or zirconium are remained in the oversaturated sosoloid in the continuous casting stage.This sosoloid passes mould by cast copper alloy and realizes, this mould is connected with water cooler, can make copper base alloy with 23 ℃/s~70 ℃/s speed fast setting.Solidification process further is reduced to temperature and is lower than the required temperature of copper base alloy generation precipitation.
The method according to this invention after the casting step, with the foundry goods of copper base alloy, preferably with bar-shaped, is drawn to predetermined size.According to the present invention, further handle the drawing product by selectable each mode and obtain the finished product: a kind of embodiment is to make the solution annealing of drawing product, another embodiment is to be element with the drawing casting forming directly, as the cold-heading resistance welding electrode as the finished product, perhaps also having another embodiment is also further to be drawn into the finished product in 2~3 hours 440~470 ℃ of following timeliness, as filament.If desired, all embodiments are subsequently all through overaging thermal treatment.
According to one embodiment of the invention, with regard to chromiumcopper, under 980~1000 ℃, carry out solution annealing 5~30 minutes, with regard to copper zirconium alloy, carried out solution annealing 10~30 minutes so that the drawing product recrystallize of predetermined size at 900~925 ℃.The application target that depends on the finished product is that element further is drawn into new desired size as the finished product or with annealing product with the annealing product direct forming.This product that will have a new desired size further is configured as element as the finished product or will have the product timeliness of new desired size before being configured as the element of the finished product.
Description of drawings
With reference to the accompanying drawings the present invention is described below in greater detail, wherein
Fig. 1 shows a preferred embodiment of the present invention in the mode of procedure of processing schema,
Fig. 2 shows another preferred embodiment of the present invention in procedure of processing schema mode,
