    Description

    • The present invention is directed to a corrosion resistant aluminium alloy and, in particular, to an AA3000 series type aluminium alloy including controlled amounts of one or more of titanium, vanadium and zirconium for improved extrudability and/or drawability.
    • In the prior art, aluminium is well recognized for its corrosion resistance. AA1000 series aluminium alloys are often selected where corrosion resistance is needed.
    • In applications where higher strengths may be needed, AA1000 series alloys have been replaced with more highly alloyed materials such as the AA3000 series types aluminium alloys. AA3102 and AA3003 are examples of higher strength aluminium alloys having good corrosion resistance.
    • Aluminium alloys of the AA3000 series type have found extensive use in the automotive industry due to their combination of high strength, light weight, corrosion resistance and extrudability. These alloys are often made into tubing for use in heat exchanger or air conditioning condenser applications.
    • One of the problems that AA3000 series alloys have when subjected to some corrosive environments is pitting corrosion. This type of corrosion often occurs in the types of environments found in heat exchanger or air conditioning condenser applications and can result in failure of an automotive component where the corrosion compromises the integrity of the aluminium alloy tubing.
    • In a search for aluminium alloys having improved corrosion resistance, more highly alloyed materials have been developed such as those disclosed in U.S. Patent nos. 4,649,087 and 4,828,794. These more highly alloyed materials while providing improved corrosion performance are not conducive to extrusion due to the need for extremely high extrusion forces.
    • U.S. Patent no. 5,286,316 discloses an aluminium alloy with both high extrudability and high corrosion resistance. This alloy consists essentially of about 0.1 - 0.5 % by weight of manganese, about 0.05-0.12 % by weight of silicon, about 0.10 - 0.20 % by weight of titanium, about 0.15 - 0.25 % by weight of iron, with the balance aluminium and incidental impurities. The alloy preferably is essentially copper free, with copper being limited to not more than 0.01 %.
    • Although the alloy disclosed in U.S. Patent no. 5,286,316 offers improved corrosion resistance over AA3102, even more corrosion resistance is desirable. In corrosion testing using salt water - acetic acid sprays as set forth in ASTM Standard G85 (hereinafter SWAAT testing), condenser tubes made of AA3102 material lasted only eight days in a SWAAT test environment before failing. In similar experiments using the alloy taught in U.S. Patent no. 5,286,316, longer durations than AA3102 were achieved. However, the improved alloy of U.S. Patent no. 5,286,316 still failed in SWAAT testing in less than 20 days.
    • Accordingly, it is a first object of the present invention to provide an aluminium alloy having improved combinations of corrosion resistance and hot formability.
    • A still further object of the present invention is to provide an aluminium alloy which has good both hot- and cold- formability, corrosion resistance. Other objects and advantages of the present invention will become apparent as a description thereof proceeds.
    • In satisfaction of the foregoing objects and advantages, the present invention provides a corrosion resistant aluminium alloy consisting essentially of, in weight percent, 0,05 - 1,00 % of iron, 0,05 - 0,60 % of silicon, up to 0,70 % of copper, up to 1,20 % of manganese, 0,02 - 0,20 % of zirconium, up to 0,50 % of chromium, up to 1,00 % of zinc, 0,02 - 0,20 % of titanium, 0,02-0,20 % of vanadium, up to 2,00 % of magnesium, up to 0,10 % of antimony, up to 0,02 % of incidental impurities and the balance aluminium.
    • Considering in more detail the amounts of the individual components, iron preferably is between 0,05 - 0,55 %, more preferably, between 0,05 - 0,25 %. Reducing the Fe content improves the corrosion resistance. Silicon is preferably between 0,05 and 0,20 %, more preferably, not more than 0,15 %. Copper is preferably not more than 0,05 %, zirconium is preferably between 0,02 and 0,18 %, zinc is preferably between 0,10 and 0,50 %, more preferably between 0,10 and 0,25 %, titanium is preferably between 0,02 and 0,15 %, vanadium is preferably between 0,02 and 0,12 %. The preferred amount of manganese is highly dependent on the intended use of the article because manganese impacts extrudability, especially with thin sections.
    • With applications with these type of alloys in which the corrosion resistance and excellent extrudability is the primary concern, manganese is preferably present in amounts between 0,05 - 0,30 % by weight. Fe is preferably present in the amounts between 0,05 - 0,25 % by weight. For these applications the preferred amount of chromium is between 0,02 and 0,25%. The magnesium amount is preferably below 0,03 %. Zn is preferably present in amounts between 0,10 - 0,5 % by weight. By making an appropriate selection of the amount of these elements it is possible to have an alloy with good extrusion characteristics, very good mechanical properties and and superior corrosion resistance. When the alloy is intended to be used in applications, in which after extrusion further deformation processes will be used in order to obtain a final product, nsuch as cold deforming as e.g. drawing and/or bending, and where higher strength is required, it is preferredto have the amount of manganese between 0,50 and 0,80 % by weight. In this application chromium is preferably between 0,02 and 0,18 % by weight. When the alloy is intended to be used in applications, in which after extrusion further deformation processes will be used in order to obtain a final product, such as cold deforming as e.g. drawing and/or binding, it is preferred to have the amount of manganese between 0,50 and 0,80 % by weight. In this application chromium is preferably between 0,02 and 0,18 % by weight and magnesium below 0,30 % by weight, for brazeability reasons. The Fe content should be kept low for improved corrosion resistance. To further improve corrosion resistance 0,10 - 0,5 % Zn is added. Likewise, controlled additions of V, Zr and Ti each not more than 0,2 % by weight are made to further improve corrosion resistance.
    • If the alloy is to be used in high temperature applications the role of V, Ti and especially Zr becomes important. The amounts added of each of these elements will depend on the functional requirements, however, the amount of zirconium is preferably between 0,10 and 0,18 % by weight. Further it is preferrred in these applications to use post treatment of the cast alloy in that it is heated to a temperature between 450 and 550°C with a heating rate of less than 150°C/hour, and maintain the alloy at that temperature between 2 and 10 hours. The final product may also for certain applications and especially after cold working, require a "back annealing" treatment consisting of heating the work piece to temperatures between 150 and 350 degrees Centigrade and keep at temperature for between 10 and 10000 min.
      • Improved corrosion resistance.
    • Zr and Ti in solid solution, are used separately to improve corrosion resistance in low alloy highly extrudable alloys for use in extruded tubes for automotive A/C systems. The useful maximum additions of Zr and Ti when added separately is about 0,2% by weight. Above this level primary compounds are formed that reduces the level of these elements in solid solution. In addition, the primary compounds from Zr and Ti (Al3Zr, Al3Ti) will initiate pitting corrosion as they are more noble than the Al matrix.
    • Both Zr and Ti will upon solidification go through a peritectic reaction. The product of this reaction is revealed as a highly concentrated region of the elements in the centre of the grain (positive partition ratio). These regions or zones will upon rolling or extrusion form a lamellae structure parallel to the surface of the work piece and slow down the corrosion in the through thickness direction.
      Additions of both Zr and Ti in combination, will give larger and more concentrated zones and hence improve corrosion resistance.
      V is an element with much the same behaviour and effect as Zr and Ti, but has up to now not been used much in these type of alloys. V will improve corrosion resistance in the same way as Zr and Ti. However, due to the smaller atomic radius compared to Zr and Ti the negative effect on the high temperature deformation resistance (extrudability) will be smaller.
      Combination of all three elements will give the most optimal balance of the corrosion, strength and workability properties.
      The concentration of the elements in this enriched central zone of the grain is different for the three elements and is also sensitive to casting speed.
      While the total amount of the element added separately before deleterious primary particles are formed is approx. 0,2wt%, dependent on melt temperature and casting conditions, the amount of the sum of the elements added together is significantly higher. Thus, a combination of the three elements will give a higher concentration in the enriched central zone of the grains and therefore steeper concentration gradients between matrix and the lamellae and enhanced effect with respect to stopping through thickness corrosion propagation.
      • Improved formability.
    • The transition elements such as Zr, Ti, and V is known to improve formability by increasing the work hardening coefficient ("n"). (Ref. latest Reynolds patent). The "n" increases with increased amount of the transition elements almost linearly up to some 0,5%. By combining Zr, Ti and V up to 0,45% of the transition elements may be added as opposed to approx. 0,2% if only one of the elements is added.
      • Improved elevated temperature mechanical properties.
    • Zr, Ti and V, and in particular Zr are known to impede the tendency of recrystalization, provided optimum heat treatment before high temperature processing. The ability to retard recrystallization is related to the number and size of small coherent precipitates that are stable at temperature up to 300- 400 degrees Centigrade for prolonged times. The fine polygenized structure that will result from back annealing at temperatures in the 150 to 350 degrees Centigrade range will have higher mechanical strength than the corresponding recrystalized structure resulting in the absence of such transition elements.
    • The density of these precipitates increases with increased amount of the transition elements, therefore combining the three elements would improve the mechanical property in the temperature range from ambient temperature to approx. 400 degrees centigrade.
