Description
Technical field
The aluminium alloy melt that the present invention relates to a kind of units of low-pressure casting automobile wheel is handled, and is applied to produce the high-performance aluminium alloy automotive wheel.
Background technology
Automotive wheel is high speed rotary in the process of moving, and carrying the various complex stresses that vehicle weight, driving torque and Uneven road produce, require the wheel material that high strength, high elastic coefficient and high fatigue strength are arranged, to satisfy the security and the reliability requirement of automobile product regulation.Automotive wheel material original adoption steel plate welds rear the extruding by moulding and forms automotive wheel, because the manufacturing process complexity, quality weighs and the wheel surface quality can not satisfy the requirement that Hyundai Motor develops, and the automotive wheel material has replaced steel plate by aluminium alloy; Because in light weight, corrosion-resistant, normal temperature and low-temperature impact toughness and the good characteristics such as presentation quality that processing method is simple, good, the application of aluminium alloy on automotive wheel constantly increases, and surpasses 60% car by 2005 and used aluminum-alloy wheel.
The manufacture method of aluminum-alloy wheel has forging method and casting.The forging and pressing manufacture method of aluminum-alloy wheel has been utilized large-tonnage hot closed-die forging equipment, the inside wheel dense structure property height of acquisition, and defective is few, and mechanical property is good, has satisfied the service requirements of automotive wheel; But the investment of a complete set of forging equipment is all about 100,000,000 yuan, and the manufacturing cost height, adds the Forging Technology complexity, does not have the mass-producing Application Prospect economically.
The aluminum current alloy wheel extensively adopts low pressure casting method production, and alloy designations is A356.2.A356.2 is hypoeutectic al-si alloy, its silicon content is about 7%, its conventional organization is distributing thick bulk and needle-like silicon of inhomogeneous a interdendritic, the form of silicon causes the stress concentration phenomenon, reduced the sudden strains of a muscle such as the mechanical property such as tensile strength of aluminium alloy and percentage elongation and allowed plasticity, strengthen simultaneously hot tearing and shrinkage porosite tendency when solidifying, reduced the mechanical performance of aluminum-alloy wheel; For reducing the illeffects of irregular silicon form, in real work, adopt to add to contain the salt of sodium or contain the agent of strontium intermediate alloy iso-metamorphism the aluminium alloy solution is processed, to change distribution and the form of silicon in aluminium alloy; But under the working condition of low pressure casting, the aluminium alloy solution of handling well must keep stable modification effect could satisfy the uniformity of aluminum-alloy wheel performance within a certain period of time, and sodium salt and strontium alloy go bad and exist rotten decay.Simultaneously, thick uneven a dendrite can cause the hot cracking tendency of aluminum-alloy wheel, has increased shrinkage porosite, causes dense structure's property decline of aluminum-alloy wheel, often cause aluminium to close wheel and scrap because of gas leakage, thick uneven a dendrite has also caused the reduction of the mechanical property of aluminium alloy; Therefore aluminum-alloy wheel also has requirement to the form distribution of a dendrite.Desirable used for automobile wheels aluminum alloy organization should be made up of tiny uniform a dendrite and tiny uniform circle or oval silicon grain.
Summary of the invention
The objective of the invention is at automotive wheel the requirement of A356.2 alloy structure and the operational characteristic of low-pressure casting, design a kind of processing method of adding multiple alloying element, organize composite refining to handle to the A356.2 alloy, the tissue that acquisition is made up of tiny and uniform a dendrite and tiny and uniform vermiform or spherical silicon, reduce the scrap rate of production process, produce high-quality aluminum-alloy wheel.
For realizing such purpose, employing after smelting furnace fusing, pour into whipping appts subcontract, the aluminium alloy solution is being carried out refining degasification slagging-off, and add alloying element such as magnesium and adjust after the composition, under the condition of aluminium liquid surface coverage protectiveness fused salt, add the various alloys of refinement a dendrite and rotten silicon; Through stirring, obtain qualified aluminium alloy solution; Aluminium alloy liquid is poured the holding furnace of low-pressure casting stove into, makes aluminum alloy automobile wheel on air injection machine.The process technology scheme that content of the present invention is to select the alloying element of composite refining and obtains the thinning microstructure effect.
Concrete technical matters route of the present invention:
Select the alloy element and the carrier thereof of refinement a dendrite:, select Al through technological test by adding heterogeneous core crystallization nuclei when increasing aluminum alloy solidification
3Zr and ZrB finally form these two kinds of compositions as heterogeneous core, these two kinds of metallic compound fusing point height, and the tiny and highly dispersed of particle is distributed in the aluminium liquid; During aluminum alloy solidification,, and have long-acting, impel a dendrite of aluminum alloy casting tissue evenly tiny as forming core core refinement a dendrite.Select respectively B
2O
3With the aluminium zirconium hardener that contains Zr5% as adding carrier, the at first in proportion B of weighing constant weight
2O
3, 250 ℃ of oven dry in baking oven in the liquid aluminum alloy of subcontracting in being blown into by high pressure nitrogen, were stirred 5 minutes, so that B
2O
3Powdery and Al fully react, and generate the B atom and are dispersed in the aluminium liquid; The aluminium zirconium hardener that afterwards adding is block also stirred 10 minutes, discharged the Zr atom after the intermediate alloy fusing, generated the small Al of disperse distribution respectively at the reaction of the B in aluminium and the aluminium
3Zr and ZrB particle.
Select alloy element and the carrier of refinement silicon phase: select Sr and mishmetal as the silicon in the composite modifier refining aluminum alloy mutually, during A356.2 alloy generation eutectic freezing, the Sr atomic adsorption stops the growth of silicon on the surface of silicon phase, refinement is also so that the nodularization of silicon phase; Because Sr and the oxidation of water in air steam reaction, thereby cause the modification effect decline of the air-breathing and Sr of aluminium alloy, the adding establishment of rare earth element the oxidation reaction of Sr in the aluminium alloy, reduced the air-breathing of aluminium alloy liquid, prevented the rotten decline of Sr, reach long-acting rotten effect, satisfied the requirement of low-pressure casting process to aluminium alloy liquid.Select to contain the aluminium strontium master alloy and the aluminium rare earth intermediate alloy that contains 10% rare earth of strontium 10% respectively, pulverize frustillatum; Take by weighing a certain amount of two kinds of master alloys, after adding the zirconium aluminium intermediate alloy, earlier aluminium strontium master alloy is added aluminium liquid, stirred 2 minutes, and then the aluminium rare earth intermediate alloy is added aluminium liquid, stirred 10 minutes.
The aluminium liquid of the above-mentioned art breading of process has been finished the art breading of composite refining, can pour the low-pressure casting holding furnace into, and the aluminum-alloy wheel of production is organized tiny even, and mechanical property improves, and has eliminated the scrap rate that does not meet the demands and cause owing to mechanical property.
Technology of the present invention is simple, and cost is low, is composite refining aluminum alloy organization when realizing industrial production, improves the new technology of aluminum-alloy wheel mechanical property.
