DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a method for producing granules in which an inorganic short fiber material is compositely contained in aluminum or an aluminum alloy (hereinafter referred to as aluminum). Recently, attention has been focused on composite materials in which short inorganic fibers such as carbon, silicon carbide, and alumina are used as reinforcing materials and dispersed in aluminum as a matrix material due to their excellent mechanical properties at high temperatures. Attempts have been made to use it in mechanical parts and other products that require high-temperature properties. Conventionally, as a method for compositely dispersing such an inorganic short fiber material in aluminum as a matrix material, a method of stirring and mixing the fiber material into molten aluminum is known. However, there is a quantitative restriction on the amount of fibers that can be mixed into the molten metal, and especially when using fibers that are difficult to wet with the molten aluminum, the fibers tend to be locally unevenly distributed, and it is difficult to distribute the fibers evenly in large amounts. It was difficult to obtain a composite material in which the materials were dispersed. The present inventors first centrifugally mixed an inorganic short fiber material in molten aluminum, granulated the mixture appropriately, and then compression-molded the granular composite while heating it to a molten or semi-molten state. , or by mixing the granular composite into heated molten aluminum;
By casting this mixed melt into a mold, we succeeded in obtaining a composite molded article in which a relatively large amount of fiber material was uniformly dispersed. (Japanese Patent Application No. 58-50504, Patent Application No. 59-65690) The composite molded product produced by the above method has excellent mechanical properties even in its original state, so it can be directly molded into mechanical parts. However, composites formed into billets or slabs can be subjected to hot plastic working such as extrusion or rolling, and can be processed into extruded or rolled materials. It could be used in a wide range of fields. However, all of the above conventional methods
A composite coagulated product obtained by pressurizing and mixing an inorganic short fiber material with molten aluminum as a matrix is finely crushed to produce composite granules as an intermediate raw material, and the granules are heated to a molten or semi-molten state. The fibrous material is pressurized and mixed into the molten aluminum, or mixed and melted into heated molten aluminum and cast into a mold to form a molded body.In this case, the fiber material is mixed under pressure into the molten aluminum. The obtained composite coagulate is
Because it is solidified by the fibrous material contained in it, it takes an extremely long time to crush it into fine granules with uniform granularity.
It was quite difficult to efficiently obtain a large amount of granules. In view of the above-mentioned circumstances, the inventors of the present invention have proposed
50504 and Japanese Patent Application No. 59-65690 in order to establish a more efficient method for mass-producing composite granules of fibrous material and aluminum as an intermediate raw material used in the production of composite molded bodies. As a result, when the inorganic short fiber material used as a reinforcing material is stirred and mixed in a container in advance, the fiber material becomes entangled with each other and aggregates to form a large number of fine fluff-like agglomerated particles. The composite coagulate obtained by sprinkling ultra-fine inorganic powder on the fiber material and then mixing it with molten aluminum under pressure is extremely easy to crush and is easily made into fine particles with uniform granularity. It is possible to crush into particles, and furthermore, the composite granular material made of fiber material and aluminum produced in this way is disclosed in the above-mentioned patent application filed in 1983.
Similar to the composite grains in the method of No.-50504 and Japanese Patent Application No. 59-65690, the composite grains are heated to a molten or semi-molten state and then pressure molded, or mixed and melted in heated molten aluminum. It has been discovered that by casting the composite material into a mold in this state, it is possible to create a composite molded product that can be subjected to hot plastic processing. The present invention has been made based on the above findings. That is, in the present invention, an inorganic short fiber material is made into a large number of fluff-like aggregates in advance, a small amount of inorganic fine powder is added to the aggregates, and the mixture is adhered and mixed, and then molten aluminum is mixed under pressure. This is a method for producing a composite granular material of an inorganic short fiber material and aluminum, which is characterized by crushing a solidified material into granules. The method of the present invention will be explained in more detail below. As the aluminum matrix material used in the production of the composite granules of the present invention, 1000 series industrial ordinary purity aluminum, 4000 series aluminum alloy for casting, etc. can be used as appropriate. Further, heat-treated wrought alloys such as 6000 series and 7000 series may also be used. As the fiber material, carbonaceous fibers, silicon carbide fibers, alumina fibers, and other appropriate inorganic short fiber materials can be used. In the method of the present invention, first, the above-mentioned inorganic short fiber material is agglomerated into a large number of fluff-like aggregate particles. This can be carried out by placing the mixture in a device such as a machine or a V-type mixer and stirring and mixing for a while. For example, if fibrous materials are placed in a mixing container equipped with stirring blades and stirred for about 5 to 30 minutes, the fibrous materials in the container will be appropriately cut and crushed and intertwined with each other, depending on the type of fibrous materials. The result is a large number of fluff-like agglomerated particles with a diameter of about 0.1 to 5 mm, although the size varies. Next, inorganic fine powder is added and mixed with the fluff-like aggregated particles of the fiber material prepared in this way. As the inorganic fine powder, aluminum oxide, aluminum oxide,
It is a material that does not easily react with molten aluminum, such as titanium oxide or silicon nitride, and is preferably as fine as possible, with a diameter of 1μ or less, although it varies somewhat depending on the type of powder. It is preferable to use 0.1μ or less. As such a powder, for example, commercially available "Aluminum Oxide C" (product of Degussa, West Germany) can be suitably used. The fiber aggregates and inorganic fine powder are mixed by thoroughly stirring and sprinkling the fiber aggregates to which the powder has been added, or by dispersing the powder in a dispersion medium such as water or alcohol while stirring the fiber aggregates. It can be carried out by a method of spraying, a method of immersing the fiber aggregates in a suspension of powder and then separating the particles, or any other suitable method. The fiber aggregates to which the inorganic powder has been mixed and adhered in this manner are dried as necessary, and molten aluminum is mixed under pressure to form a composite coagulate. As mentioned above, the purpose of mixing the inorganic fine powder with the fiber aggregates is to impart preferable crushability to the composite solidified product of the fiber aggregates and molten aluminum. The amount of fine powder added to the agglomerated grains in order to exhibit such an effect may be extremely small. If a large amount of powder adheres to and mixes with the fiber agglomerated grains, the wettability of the molten aluminum to the agglomerated grains will be inhibited, and the next time the molten metal is mixed, the molten metal will be prevented from penetrating into the inside of the agglomerated grains. Therefore, it is desirable to avoid it. For these reasons, the mixing ratio of inorganic powder to fiber aggregates varies somewhat depending on the type of powder used, but the amount of powder attached to and mixed in the aggregates obtained by mixing is It is desirable to carry out the treatment so that the volume ratio of the fiber material forming the agglomerated grains is approximately 0.5 to 20%, preferably approximately 5 to 10%. Next, molten aluminum is mixed under pressure into the fiber aggregates to which the inorganic fine powder has been added as described above to impregnate the voids within the fiber grains, but this mixing is done using a high-pressure press. However, in order to sufficiently penetrate the molten metal into the inside of the fiber particles, it is preferable to use a centrifugal device and mix under centrifugal pressure. The amount of molten aluminum mixed into the fiber agglomerates is the amount necessary to sufficiently impregnate the inside of the fiber agglomerates with the molten metal, but it is desirable to avoid using a significantly excessive amount. Next, the mixture of fiber aggregates and molten aluminum is cooled and solidified, and then the solidified material is crushed and granulated. This coagulated material can be crushed very easily into granules having a particle size of about 0.1 to 3 mm with a small amount of force. For this crushing, a crusher, a refiner, an impeller, etc. can be used. The fiber content of the granules obtained in this way is usually about 10 to 20% by volume, but when mixing the fiber agglomerates and molten aluminum, the fiber agglomerates are compressed and the molten metal is mixed. By pressurized mixing, composite granules with a fiber content of up to about 30% by volume can be obtained.
The crushed grains are sieved to adjust the granularity, if necessary. As described above, after cleaning the surface of the inorganic short fiber material and aluminum composite particles produced by the method of the present invention with an acid or alkaline solution as necessary, the -50504 or Japanese Patent Application No. 59-65690, it is heated to a molten or semi-molten state and then directly pressure molded, or this is heated. It can be mixed and melted in molten aluminum and then gravity cast, die cast, or pressure cast into a mold to form a composite molded body in a desired shape.
In addition, the composite granules formed into a billet or slab shape by the above method can be subjected to hot plastic working in the same manner as in extrusion or rolling of ordinary aluminum alloy materials to form inorganic short particles. It can be formed into a rod-shaped or plate-shaped composite aluminum wrought material reinforced with fiber material. As described above, in the present invention, an inorganic short fiber material is prepared in advance into a large number of fluff-like fiber agglomerated particles, an inorganic fine powder is added and mixed therein, and then molten aluminum is mixed under pressure into the mixed particles. By crushing the solidified material, aluminum containing fiber material can be produced as a raw material for producing aluminum-fiber composite molded bodies as described in Japanese Patent Application No. 58-50504 and Japanese Patent Application No. 59-65690. In the method of manufacturing composite granules, when the method of the present invention is used, composite granules with uniform granularity can be easily produced in large quantities. This can significantly contribute to improving body quality and reducing production costs. Next, examples of the present invention are listed. Example 1 Using 2017Al alloy as the matrix material,
Alumina short fibers (diameter 3 μm x average length approximately 120 μm) were used as the inorganic fiber material of the reinforcing material. When 20 parts of alumina fiber material was placed in a container with a capacity of 5 and equipped with stirring blades, stirring and mixing were continued for about 20 minutes.
The fibrous material in the container became a large number of agglomerated particles with an average particle size of about 0.6 mm. Sufficient stirring was continued for about 15 minutes while adding 2 parts of fine aluminum oxide powder ("Aluminum Oxide C" manufactured by Degussa AG, West Germany) having a fineness of about 0.02 μm to the agglomerated particles. 22 parts of the fiber aggregates obtained in this way were placed in a centrifugal container, and heated and molten aluminum was added to the container.
After adding 100 parts and centrifugally mixing, the coagulated material was crushed using a hammer mill to obtain 100 parts of composite granules with a uniform particle size of 0.1 to 3 mm in diameter. Disintegration was extremely easy. Using the above composite granules, extruded material samples A and B were produced as follows. Sample A Composite granules were heated to approximately 700°C, placed in a cylindrical mold, and molded with a plunger to a diameter of 50 mm x length.
After compacting into a billet shape of 120 mm, this was placed in a condenser of an extruder and hot extrusion molded (temperature: 500°C) into a round bar shape of 10 mm in diameter. Sample B: 50 parts of composite granules were poured into 80 parts of molten aluminum (2017Al alloy) heated to 750°C, mixed and stirred for a while, and then cast into a billet shape into a cylindrical mold with a diameter of 100 mm and a length of 140 mm. The resulting composite cast body was hot extruded (temperature: 450°C) into a round bar shape with a diameter of 10 mm. Example 2 Similar to Example 1, as a matrix material
6061Al alloy was used, and alumina short fiber material was used as the fiber material. The alumina fiber material was stirred and mixed in the same manner as in Example 1 to form agglomerated particles with an average particle size of about 0.6 mm. While stirring 15 parts of the above fiber agglomerated granules, 22.5 parts of a 4.5% aqueous slurry of fine aluminum oxide powder ("Aluminum Oxide C" manufactured by Degussa AG, West Germany) was sprayed onto a small amount and thoroughly mixed. It was dried by heating at 120°C. 16.5 parts of the fiber aggregates thus obtained were placed in a centrifugal container, 95 parts of heated molten aluminum was added thereto, centrifugally mixed, and the coagulated material was crushed with a hammer mill to 0.1 to 3 mm Approximately 100 parts of composite granules with uniform particle size were obtained. Disintegration was extremely easy. Using the above composite granules, extruded material samples C and D were produced as follows. Sample C The composite granules were heated to about 700°C and compacted into a billet shape with a diameter of 50 mm and a length of 120 mm in the same manner as Sample A in Example 1, and then hot extruded into a round bar shape with a diameter of 10 mm ( Temperature: 550°C). Sample D 50 parts of composite granules were put into 50 parts of molten aluminum (6061Al alloy) heated to 750°C, mixed and stirred for a while, and then pressure cast into a billet shape ( The pressure was 150Kg/cm 2 ). The obtained composite cast body was subjected to hot extrusion molding (temperature: 450°C) into a round bar shape with a diameter of 10 mm. The mechanical properties of extruded samples A, B, C, and D obtained in Examples 1 and 2 at room temperature and high temperature were measured, respectively.
It was as follows. 【table】
