Definitions
- the present invention relates to an aluminum-based alloy having a high strength and an excellent toughness which is produced by a quench solidification process.
- An aluminum-based alloy having a high strength and a high heat resistance has heretofore been produced by a liquid quenching process as disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 275732/1989.
- the aluminum-based alloy obtained by the liquid quenching process is an amorphous or microcrystalline alloy and is an excellent alloy having a high strength, a high heat resistance and a high corrosion resistance.
- the above conventional aluminum-based alloy is an excellent alloy which exhibits a high strength, a high heat resistance and a high corrosion resistance and is also excellent in workability in spite of its being a high-strength material, it still admits of further improvement in toughness when used as the material required to have a high toughness.
- an alloy produced by a quench solidification process involves the problems that it is susceptible to thermal influence at the time of working and that it suddenly loses the excellent characteristics such as a high strength owing to the thermal influence.
- the above-mentioned aluminum-based alloy is not the exception to the aforestated general rule and still leaves some room for further improvement in this respect.
- an object of the present invention is to provide a high-strength and high-toughness aluminum-based alloy capable of maintaining its excellent characteristics provided by a quench solidification process as well as a high strength and a high toughness even if it is subjected to the thermal influence when working.
- the present invention provides a high-strength and high-toughness aluminum-based alloy having a composition represented by the general formula Al a Ni b X c M d wherein X is at least one element selected from the group consisting of La, Ce, Mm (misch metal), Ti and Zr; M is at least one element selected from the group consisting of Fe, Co, Y, Nb, Hf, Ta and W; and a, b, c and d are, in atomic percentages, 85 ⁇ a ⁇ 94.4, 5 ⁇ b ⁇ 10, 0.5 ⁇ c ⁇ 3 and 0.1 ⁇ d ⁇ 2.
- the single figure is a schematic illustration of one example of the apparatus well suited for the production of the alloy according to the present invention.
- the Ni element has a superior ability to form an amorphous phase or a supersaturated solid solution and serves for the refinement of the crystalline structure of the alloy including the intermetallic compounds and for the production of a high-strength alloy by a quench solidification process.
- the content of Ni in the above alloy is limited to 5 to 10 atomic % because a content thereof less than 5 atomic % leads to an insufficient strength of the alloy obtained by rapid quenching, whereas that exceeding 10 atomic % results in a sudden decrease in the toughness (ductility) of the alloy thus obtained.
- the element X is at least one element selected from the group consisting of La, Ce, Mm, Ti and Zr and serves to enhance the thermal stability of the amorphous structure, supersaturated solid solution or microcrystalline structure as well as the strength of the alloy.
- the content of the element X in the above alloy is limited to 0.5 to 3 atomic % because a content thereof less than 0.5 atomic % leads to insufficiency of the above-mentioned effect, whereas that exceeding 3 atomic % results in a sudden decrease in the toughness (ductility) of the alloy thus obtained.
- the element M is at least one element selected from the group consisting of Fe, Co, Y, Nb, Hf, Ta and W and serves to enhance the thermal stability of the rapidly solidified structure such as the amorphous structure, supersaturated solid solution or microcrystalline structure and to maintain the above-described characteristics even when the alloy is subjected to thermal influence.
- the addition of the element M in a slight amount to the alloy does not exert any adverse influence on the excellent toughness (ductility) of the Al-Ni-X-based alloy.
- the content of the element M in the above alloy is limited to 0.1 to 2 atomic % because a content thereof less than 0.1 atomic % leads to insufficiency of the above-mentioned effect, whereas that exceeding 2 atomic % results in the action of inhibiting the refinement of the aforestated rapidly solidified structure and exerts evil influence on the toughness (ductility) of the alloy thus obtained.
- the aluminum-based alloy according to the present invention is obtained by rapidly solidifying the melt of the alloy having the aforestated composition thorough a liquid quenching process.
- the cooling rate of 104 to 106 K/sec in this case is particularly effective.
- a molten alloy 3 having a given composition was prepared with a high-frequency melting furnace, introduced into a quartz tube 1 having a small hole 5 of 0.5 mm in diameter at the end thereof as shown in the figure, and melted by heating. Thereafter the quartz tube 1 was placed immediately above a copper roll 2. Then the molten alloy 3 in the quartz tube 1 was ejected onto the roll 2 from the small hole 5 of the quartz tube 1 at a high speed of the roll 2 of 3000 to 5000 rpm under a pressure of argon gas of 0.7 kg/cm2 and brought into contact with the surface of the roll 2 to obtain a rapidly solidified thin ribbon alloy 4.
- the aluminum-based alloy according to the present invention has a very high strength at both room temperature and an elevated temperature, that is, a tensile strength of 850 MPa or higher at room temperature and that of 500 MPa or higher in the 473 K atmosphere without a great decrease in the strength at an elevated temperature; besides it has an elongation of 1% or greater at room temperature, rendering itself a material excellent in toughness.
- the aluminum-based alloy according to the present invention possesses a high strength and a high toughness and can maintain the excellent characteristics provided by quench solidification even when subjected to thermal influence at the time of working.
- it can provide an alloy material having a high specific strength by virtue of minimized amounts of elements having a high specific gravity to be added to the alloy.
