Rolling method using reverse temperature field and manufacturing method of magnesium alloy sheet for manufacturing magnesium alloy sheet Detailed Description of the Invention

  The present invention relates to a method of rolling magnesium and a magnesium alloy sheet in a state where a semi-finished product of a rolled steel sheet is in a reverse temperature field.

[Background Technology]
Magnesium and magnesium alloys are praised as the most promising lightweight structural metal materials in the 21st century, and are environmentally friendly materials with excellent energy saving, recyclable resources, electromagnetic shielding performance, aerospace, space, weapons, automobiles, High potential for practical value in fields such as motorcycles, bicycles, trains, metro trains, 3C products, electronic communications, home appliances, sports equipment, medical equipment, medical intervention materials, buildings, and submarine cables.

Magnesium and magnesium alloys are poorly plastic and difficult to machine, making them a major technical bottleneck for the development of the magnesium industry. For any metallic material application, the market for production products based on casting technology only occupies 10-15%, whereas plastic processed products occupy more than 80% market share. The difficulty of plastic working of magnesium and magnesium alloys has been a common perception in the world. Magnesium and magnesium alloys are not only difficult to perform primary plastic working, but secondary plastic working is more difficult than primary. The main contents of primary plastic working technology are as follows:
Extrusion technology: extruded bar, tube, mold.

  Drawing technology: drawn yarn material, wire material, pipe material.

  Rolling technology: rolled plate, wire, rod, mold.

  Forging technology: Molded parts made of magnesium alloy ingots.

  Among primary plastic working techniques, the rolling technique of magnesium and magnesium alloy sheets is the most difficult. Magnesium alloy sheet (0.3-2 mm thickness) sawing rate is as low as 30-40%, rolling speed is slow, there are many rolling processes, and many heating steps are required. The manufacturing cost is high and the price is very expensive. Sheet material accounts for 60% of primary plastic processed products, and magnesium alloy sheet rolling technology is the main technology that hinders the industrial development of magnesium and magnesium alloys.

  Since the plasticity of the magnesium plate produced by rolling by primary plastic working is poor, secondary plastic working is required. For example, in the case of a hot-extrusion molded part, unlike a mild steel sheet and an aluminum sheet, a molded part cannot be formed by cooling extrusion and cooling extrusion at room temperature, so the productivity is low. The surface quality of thermoformed parts is poor, the cost is high, and it is very expensive. In warm extrusion or heat extrusion, cracks are easily generated, leading to difficulty in the production process.

  Increasing the plasticity, finish rate, and productivity of magnesium and magnesium alloys to reduce costs is the goal of long-term efforts by scientists and engineers around the world, but has not yet achieved breakthroughs.

  The application and spread of plate materials that cannot be solved by plastic processing technology, particularly plate material rolling technology, is a limiting factor in the application of mold materials, yarn materials, pipe materials and the like. As a result, the magnesium and magnesium alloy industry is not as fast as the aluminum and aluminum alloy industry.

The crystal structure of magnesium belongs to the hexagonal lattice structure , and the poor plasticity at room temperature is “naturally weak”, so it is impossible to change the crystal structure. When the hexagonal lattice structure is changed, not follow the other magnesium and magnesium alloy. Increasing the purity of magnesium and a magnesium alloy can improve the anticorrosion performance and plasticity, but is not suitable for mass production because it requires expensive costs. Currently, the whole world is in a state of gathering with the goal of how to subdivide the crystal grains of magnesium alloy. This is because the finely divided crystal particles can greatly improve the plasticity of magnesium and a magnesium alloy. In this way, finally, it is useful for secondary plastic working parts of magnesium alloy.

  Research shows that to significantly improve the plasticity of magnesium alloys, it is necessary to subdivide the crystal grains into 10 um, which is a necessary condition. It is a sufficient condition not only to subdivide to 10 um but also to keep the crystal grains uniform in size.

  Such a technique can effectively increase the plasticity of magnesium and a magnesium alloy.

  Based on conventional magnesium alloy hot rolling and cold rolling technology, it is very difficult to subdivide the crystal grain of magnesium alloy sheet to 10 um or less and keep the crystal grain size uniform, and it is absolutely necessary for mass production Not suitable.

Currently, new technologies and methods for subdividing domestic and foreign magnesium alloy crystal particles are as follows:
Fast powder solidification set extrusion re-hot rolling technology, extrusion method (ECAE) by the same diameter path, etc. are mentioned. These techniques can greatly improve the plasticity if the size of the magnesium alloy crystal particles is subdivided into submicrons, but they are suitable for mass production due to lower productivity and higher cost. Therefore, it cannot respond to the production of plate materials.

Currently, the double roller process a magnesium alloy sheet is called the most popular abroad, can be subdivided crystal particles below 10um, so attributable to the casting structure, further hot rolling and cold rolling Implementation is necessary. If the double roller plate material is used as it is, it is suitable only for pure magnesium and low strength magnesium alloy, and the plasticity index of the plate material is unstable and the quality is the most difficult to control. I can't. In individual developed countries, liquid magnesium alloy double-roller casting technology is only suitable for semi-finished products, reducing the amount of work in the subsequent hot rolling process and increasing productivity, thus reducing costs. However, it is already recognized that the plasticity of the board needs to be significantly improved, is not feasible at the moment and must be considered further.

  Therefore, only the Australian National Science and Technology and Industrial Research Center produced small-scale production using double roller casting technology, and other countries such as the United States, Germany, and China are still in the testing stage. Currently.

  Other than the present invention, at present, magnesium and magnesium alloy sheet material rolling technology has not achieved an essential breakthrough, the market price of magnesium and magnesium alloy sheet material is still very expensive, it can be easily applied and popularized Can not.

[Summary of the Invention]

[Means for solving the problems]
To achieve the above objectives, the following technical solution should be used:
For the production of high magnesium alloy sheet of plastic according to the present invention, I rolling method der utilizing a reverse temperature field, the rolling rollers heated steel rolling mill and rolled under reverse temperature field, by heating It is to adapt the temperature of the rolling roller and the initial temperature field of the non-rolled sheet material. In the rolling method using a reverse temperature field for producing a highly plastic magnesium alloy sheet according to the present invention , the reverse temperature field is an initial temperature field of a semi-finished product at the start of rolling, the surface temperature of the semi-finished product in the rolling start point refers to a temperature higher than the center portion of the workpiece, in the rolling deformation processes, heat is Rukoto I transfer from outside to inside. For the production of high magnesium alloy sheet of plastic according to the present invention, the rolling method using a reverse temperature field, in the rolling process, the semifinished product surface temperature four hundred fifty to two hundred fifty ° C., the workpiece thickness direction of the The temperature of the central part is in the range of 20 to 150 ° C., the relative value of the rolling reduction of each rolling is in the range of 20% to 70%, and the rolling speed is in the range of 5 to 10 meters / minute. For the production of high magnesium alloy sheet of plastic according to the present invention, the rolling method using a reverse temperature field, in the rolling process, the surface temperature of the semi-finished product is 450 ° C., was 400 ° C., or 300 ° C., the temperature of the central part is that it is 20 ° C..

For the production of high magnesium alloy sheet of plastic according to the present invention, the rolling method using a reverse temperature field, in the rolling process, the surface temperature of the semi-finished product is 450 ° C., the temperature of the central portion 100 ° C. It is to be.

For the production of high magnesium alloy sheet of plastic according to the present invention, a rolling method using a reverse temperature field, when performing rolling of a plurality Shi pairs ingot to components of the original semi-finished product once, pressure The amount of relative deformation of the amount is 20 to 30% for the first and second times, 30 to 40% for the third to sixth times, 40 to 50% for the seventh to tenth times, and 50 to 70% for the tenth and later times. Is to do .

For the production of high magnesium alloy sheet of plastic according to the present invention, a rolling method using a reverse temperature field, when a plurality of times of rolling the ingot to components of the original semi-products, reduction rate the relative amount of deformation, the relative amount of deformation of rolling reduction, the 1-2 round of 20-30%, the third to fifth round of 30-40%, when rolling later, depending on the thickness of the final sheet material Thus, the relative deformation amount of each reduction amount is in the range of 30 to 60%.

〔Effect of the invention〕
1. The current hot rolling technology for magnesium alloy sheets in Japan and overseas has an initial temperature of 420 ° C to 50 ° C, a final temperature of about 300 ° C, and a rolling reduction of about 20% each time. In order to roll an ingot with a wall thickness of 120 mm to a l-2 mm plate, it is necessary to heat 3-5 times. The required number of rolling operations is 26 to 28, and the yield is 30 to 40%. Magnesium and a magnesium alloy sheet rolling technology in the present invention, unlike the rolling technology of existing national and international, that employs a reverse temperature field rolling technology. For thin sheets rolled from 120 mm to l mm in thickness, the number of times of heating is one time for a semi-finished product, the initial temperature is 420 ° C., and the reduction amount can be increased to 30 to 60% each time. About 14 times, the number of times of heating can be reduced 2 to 4 times, and the total number of times can be about 1/2 of the general rolling technology. Furthermore, the utilization rate of materials is 60-70%. In addition to this, since the crystal grains of the magnesium alloy plate material proposed in the present invention are small and average, the size of the crystal particles of the plate material is suppressed to 10 um or less, and in normal cases, 2 to 6 um. Since it can be subdivided within the range and the plasticity of the plate material can be greatly improved, the extension rate of the plate material can be stably achieved at 21% or more regardless of the horizontal or vertical, and the majority is 25 It can reach ˜28% and eventually 34%. In addition, the discrepancy between the longitudinal and lateral performances of the plate is very small and can be kept to a small range of 10-15%.

  2.The present invention solves the problem of the manufacturing cost of the magnesium alloy sheet, thereby enabling to achieve or approximate the manufacturing cost of the aluminum alloy sheet, and solving the problem of poor plasticity of the sheet. Therefore, the plasticity index of the plate material was achieved at the level of the rust-proof aluminum alloy, and the plastic index of the mild steel plate material was approached. In essence, the present invention solves the problem of plastic processing technology of magnesium and magnesium alloy.

  3. The present invention has changed the conventional idea that the magnesium alloy has poor plasticity and difficulty in plastic working, and breaks through the penalty area where magnesium alloy can not be cooled plastically processed at room temperature. doing. It can be said that there has already been a significant breakthrough in the plastic processing technology field of magnesium and magnesium alloys. As a result, a new technological path was created for the application and diffusion of magnesium and magnesium alloys.

  4.In the reverse temperature field rolling of the present invention, the temperature field resulting from the fact that the surface temperature of the semi-finished product of the plate material to be rolled is higher than the temperature of the center part of the semi-finished product is called reverse temperature field rolling. It is just opposite to the temperature gap of the temperature field in the rolling process. In all common rolling techniques, whether hot rolling or cold rolling at room temperature, the temperature of the center of the semi-finished product is higher than the surface temperature, and the amount of heat goes from the semi-finished product to the outside and the rolling roller. Heat dissipation, that is, a temperature field in the positive direction in which the temperature at the center of the plate is higher than the surface temperature of the plate is formed.

  Since the room temperature plasticity of the magnesium and magnesium alloy chambers is poor, plastic processing cannot be easily performed. The present invention has begun to repair plasticity of plastic processing technology of magnesium and magnesium alloy, and solves all the problems of non-adaptation to plastic processing of magnesium and magnesium alloy in all conventional plastic processing technology methods, Currently, all plastic working processes belong to the positive temperature field, and the so-called positive temperature field is plasticity in the deformation process because the temperature inside the deformed body of all plastic working is higher than the surface temperature. The amount of heat generated in the deformation is dissipated in the direction of the mold, so that the temperature difference in the center of the deformable body is higher than the surface temperature of the deformable body. In the present invention, since the surface of the deformed body has a higher disparity than the temperature at the center, it is opposite to the temperature field in the positive direction. Just as was opposite to the positive direction of the temperature field, the present invention is defined that it is "plastic working of the reverse temperature field". The reverse temperature field rolling technique is one of the reverse temperature field plastic working methods during the reverse temperature field plastic working.

  Since a new technical method called reverse temperature plastic working is proposed for the process of forward temperature field in conventional plastic working from the technical principle, reverse temperature field is a betrayal to conventional forward temperature field. It is. In the temperature field of conventional plastic processing that has been artificially changed, whether it is hot rolling plastic processing or cold rolling plastic processing, the temperature field of the deforming body under deformation based on all methods Rules have been established, and it can be said that this is a process of heat dissipation and heat conduction in the direction of the mold. Therefore, the deformation process in the thermoplastic working in the reverse direction is a process in which heat is transferred from the surface of the deformed body to the inside of the deformed body, and the present invention is proposed for magnesium and magnesium alloys, It has a universal significance in terms of technical theory, applied to the process of plastic processing of metallic materials. Therefore, the reverse temperature field rolling process method of magnesium and magnesium alloy of the present invention has a solid technical theory basis.

  From the technical point of view, since this method corresponds to the plastic working of magnesium and magnesium alloy, the rolling work of magnesium and magnesium alloy sheet is the most difficult. It is submitted corresponding to the rolling process method for the alloy sheet.

The core technical specifications in Examples 6 and 7 of the present invention are the initial reverse temperature field control of the semi-finished product and the control of the amount of reduction every time.

Control of the reverse temperature field refers difference in temperature of the surface and the central portion of the semi-finished product, i.e. the temperature of the disparities. This can even control the temperature field during initial rolling, i.e., the initial temperature field. In order to gradually match the temperature of the surface and the center of the plate by receiving heat energy generated in heat conduction and plastic deformation during the rolling deformation process. For this reason, since the temperature field is changing, it takes time to achieve the coincidence of temperature with respect to the thick plate by eliminating the temperature difference when the instantaneous temperature of the thin plate is deformed. In the embodiment, only one kind of parameters of the implementation method is proposed, and in fact, the temperature difference of the initial reverse temperature field can be adjusted by the amount of rolling and the alloy component each time depending on the plate thickness. For example, the temperature disparity range: the surface temperature of the semi-finished product can be adjusted in the range of 250 ° C. to 450 ° C., and the temperature of the central part can be adjusted in the range of 20 ° C. to 150 ° C.

In selecting the amount of reduction each time, it is determined according to the alloy composition of the ingot and the ingot configuration. In normal cases, the reduction amount at the initial stage of rolling can be set a little smaller, and as the number of times increases, the reduction amount can be gradually added, so the reduction amount can be selected in the range of 20 to 70%.
