- The invention relates to the technical field of alloys and specifically relates to a zinc alloy with excellent crack resistance and a manufacturing method thereof.
- Zinc alloy for die casting is an alloy formed by adding other elements based on zinc. Commonly added alloying elements are aluminum, copper, magnesium, cadmium, lead, titanium, and the like. Zinc alloy has a low melting point and good fluidity and is convenient for welding, brazing and plastic processing. Zinc alloy is corrosion resistant in the atmosphere, and the residual material is easy to recycle and remelt. However, Zinc alloy has a low creep strength and is susceptible to natural aging, which may cause dimensional changes.
- Commonly used zinc alloys for die-casting are ZAMAK3 alloy and ZAMAK5 alloy. The composition of these two alloys is relatively simple. Initially, they mainly contain zinc and aluminum, and sometimes copper is added. Such alloys have poor corrosion resistance. In order to improve the corrosion resistance, researchers introduced magnesium. As a result, it has been found that the intergranular corrosion performance was significantly improved after the addition of magnesium, and the alloy strength was improved. Therefore, the currently marketed ZAMAK3 alloy and ZAMAK5 alloy are both added with magnesium element and the amount of magnesium is controlled at 0.03-0.06%.
- Among the alloys for die-casting, ZAMAK3 alloy has been widely used in the bathroom hardware industry due to its excellent comprehensive performance and low cost. However, for some three-way and four-way hardware products with small R angles, when using ZAMAK3 alloy, thermal cracks are likely to occur at the R angle, and the crack rate when forming is 100%. The product design is limited by customer requirements, and the R angle cannot be modified at will, and thus the crack cannot be resolved. Compared with ZAMAK3 alloy, ZAMAK5 alloy has higher hardness and strength, and lower flexibility. However, this alloy also has similar defects as ZAMAK3 alloy that is prone to hot cracks.

The problem of polishing hardpoints caused by the use of intermediate alloy containing RE or Zr or B can be avoided. Thus the mirror polishing contour requirements can be met.
- In the zinc alloy of the present application, aluminum is the main alloy element, which functions to prevent the oxidation of zinc liquid, improve the surface quality of the casting, reduce the brittleness of the casting, and reduce the corrosion of zinc to the iron crucible. In addition, the addition of aluminum can also modify the grains and improve the strength and hardness of the alloy. The Al amount of the present application is 3.5-4.3 wt %.
