Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a calcium-containing magnesium alloy having excellent heat resistance and stable quality by wrapping metallic calcium in aluminum foil, immersing it in molten magnesium, and dissolving it in the molten metal. SOLUTION: Metallic calcium is wrapped in aluminum foil, which is immersed in molten pure magnesium by using a jig and dissolved and added in/to the molten metal. Then, alloying elements other than metallic calcium are added. By wrapping metallic calcium in aluminum foil, heating can be applied while preventing oxidation, and further, by immersing this metallic calcium in molten magnesium, dissolution and addition can be rapidly performed without causing oxidation at the point of time when the aluminum foil is broken. At this time, the aluminum foil is in an amount not larger than 1-2g, and its influence can be industrially negligible. As the other additive metals, aluminum, zinc, manganese, silicon, lanthanoide series metals, etc., can be cited.

Therefore, as in the present invention, by wrapping metallic calcium in aluminum foil, it is possible to heat while preventing oxidation, and by immersing this in a molten magnesium with a jig, the aluminum foil can be heated. It can be dissolved and added without oxidizing quickly when it is broken.

When the calcium-containing magnesium alloy contains other metals such as aluminum, zinc, manganese and silicon, it is desirable to give priority to the addition of calcium first. This is because calcium metal is active and thus easily forms compounds with many elements, for example, aluminum and compounds are formed preferentially and are easily precipitated under the molten metal due to a difference in specific gravity, which is not preferable. Also, a coarse compound is preferentially generated with silicon, and in this case, the compound easily floats on the surface of the molten metal, which is not preferable.

[0015] These factors overlap to destabilize the quality of the calcium-containing magnesium alloy of the present invention. However, when metallic calcium is directly added to the molten magnesium, it is dispersed and when other elements are added. Also, the case where magnesium silicide is replaced with silicide with another element becomes finer, and the above-described problems are reduced.
