Description

The preparation method of contact material having high performance and low mixed copper-chromium alloy content
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of preparation method who makes the contact material of chrome copper alloy of using in the electrical material field, especially utilize electromagnetic suspension smelting technique production high-performance, the low preparation method who is mingled with contact material of chrome copper alloy.
Background technology
Copper chromium (CuCr) alloy is the contact material that is widely used in the mesohigh vacuum interrupter, has proof voltage and dropout current ability preferably.Wherein gas and foreign matter content index are the keys of its performance of decision.When containing gas contents such as higher oxygen, nitrogen or more inclusion in the material, will greatly damage the contact performance even can not use.Therefore, the pollution that constantly reduces the gas content in the material and reduce inclusion is the key of development high-performance CuCr contact material.
At present, produce the CuCr alloy both at home and abroad and mainly contain five kinds of operational paths.
1. powder mixing method: with a certain proportion of Cu powder and Cr powder thorough mixing, coldmoulding forms through vacuum sintering or hot isostatic pressing again.The advantage of powder mixing method is that technology is simple, the ripening degree height, and shortcoming is that raw gas content is had very strict requirement, is difficult to obtain the product of low-gas content, density is low also to be a major defect.
2. infiltration method: with proper C r powder and the compacting of other component thorough mixing; in vacuum or inert protective atmosphere, sinter the Cr skeleton of certain porosity into; then ooze Cu in a vacuum; because wicking action; liquid Cu is inhaled in the hole of skeleton, forms the CuCr contact alloy of the densification of density more than 98% theoretical density.
3. consumable method: pack into Cu powder and Cr powder in the thin-walled Cu pipe or the CuCr alloy bar that powder mixing method is made is carried out consumable smelting as negative electrode in vacuum arc fumace, the gained ingot blank further improves density through hot extrusion again.Consumable method complicated process of preparation, the cost height.
4. vacuum melting method: a certain proportion of copper billet and chromium piece melted in the induction melting furnace in a vacuum frequently degas, pour into then in the special mould.
5. atomizing preparation method: after a certain proportion of copper billet and chromium piece be fused into the prealloy ingot in the induction melting furnace in a vacuum frequently, the prealloy ingot is prepared the chromiumcopper block materials by the gas atomization rapid solidification.The chromiumcopper of this method preparation is because the temperature of fusion height has special requirement to the crucible mouth.
In these five kinds of processing methodes first three plant to starting material particularly the Cr mealiness strict demand can be arranged; if the oxygen level of Cr powder is higher; the oxygen that sintering all can not effective elimination Cr powder in vacuum or protective atmosphere environment makes to have high oxygen level in the CuCr contact the most at last.Too high oxygen level can make contact emit a large amount of gases when dropout current, and the vacuum and the insulating power of infringement vacuum interrupter make vacuum interrupter cut-off failure, cause major accident.Though adopt in the vacuum smelting method and can obtain low gas content, but because vacuum melting is to carry out in the oxide compound crucible under excessive temperature, since under the high temperature chromiumcopper easily and material react, cause alloy to be polluted, and often there is more inclusion in the crucible material, reduced the reliability of contact.Because the melting of chromiumcopper is carried out under excessive temperature, adopt vacuum induction melting method and atomizing preparation method all easily and crucible material react, cause alloy to be polluted, and often have more inclusion in the crucible material, reduced the reliability of contact.
Summary of the invention
The present invention is directed to the above-mentioned deficiency of preparation CuCr alloy method in the prior art, the melting technology of preparing that adopts vacuum electromagnetic to suspend, a kind of contact material of chrome copper alloy that is used to prepare high-performance, hypoxemia, low nitrogen, low inclusion is provided, increase substantially the performance of contact material of chrome copper alloy, fundamentally solve the pollution problem of crucible material.
Technical scheme of the present invention: the preparation method of contact material having high performance and low mixed copper-chromium alloy content is characterized in that comprising following operation steps:
(1), be that the ratio of 10wt%~75wt% is joined sample according to weight of chromium content with copper metallic substance and chromium metallic substance according to the alloying constituent of processing requirement; Corresponding copper metallic substance weight content is 25wt%~90wt%;
(2) material for preparing is mixed powder and be pressed into block, perhaps make the prefabricated ingot of alloy by vacuum induction melting and vacuum non-consumable arc melting; After material put into vacuum induction melting furnace or vacuum non-consumable arc-melting furnace, extract the gas in the smelting furnace earlier, charge into high purity inert gas then;
(3) under protection of inert gas, the prefabricated ingot of alloy is melted through high-frequency induction heating in vacuum electromagnetic shower furnace or cold crucible furnace; The prefabricated ingot of alloy gets up at the effect low suspension of electromagnetic force, and heat fused, after treating that alloy pig melts fully, insulation for some time (make that dissolved gases evaporates as far as possible in the alloy sample, reduce associated gas content and also make both thorough mixing) to mix;
(4) adopt high purity inert gas cooled and solidified or employing water jacketed copper crucible cooled and solidified to obtain the chromiumcopper ingot.
Further feature is: in vacuum induction melting and vacuum non-consumable arc melting, and in vacuum electromagnetic suspended smelting and cold crucible fusion process, adopt high-purity argon gas as inert protective atmosphere.
