Description

High tough magnesium lithium alloy of a kind of as cast condition and preparation method thereof
Technical field
What the present invention relates to is a kind of magnesium lithium alloy, the present invention also relates to a kind of preparation method of magnesium lithium alloy.
Background technology
Magnesium lithium alloy is the lightest present structural metallic materials, and its density only has 1.35~1.65g/cm 3, the specific tenacity height, the specific rigidity height, electromagnetic wave shielding is strong, and damping performance is good, and casting and turning ability are good, and have good hot and cold deformability.Therefore, magnesium lithium alloy comes into one's own in fields such as aerospace, automobile, electronics, and has obtained tentative application.In recent years, energy-saving and emission-reduction are advocated in the whole world, cut down the consumption of energy, the advantage that the environment of preserving our planet, magnesium lithium alloy have other alloys to hardly match in this respect.At present, China's aerospace field provides opportunities and challenges to the active demand of loss of weight for exploitation and the application of magnesium lithium alloy.Therefore, the exploitation high strength magnesium lithium alloy is no matter be to environment protection or all significant to the military and national defense cause.
The intensity of magnesium lithium alloy is low to be the major issue of its widespread use of restriction.Many researchers uses the method for deformation processing (extruding, rolling etc.) to improve the intensity of alloy, this has increased the cost of alloy greatly, and, because strong basal plane texture appears in magnesium alloy easily in plastic history, the anisotropy that has caused alloy has equally also limited its widespread use as structured material greatly.Comparatively speaking, alloying is a kind of schedule of reinforcement common in magnesium alloy, and not only operation is simple for this method, also has the meaning of generally promoting.
Al, Zn are alloy elements common in the magnesium alloy.Al joins the temperature that can reduce liquidus line in the Mg alloy effectively, and the atomicity of unit weight is many, and strengthening effect is good.Along with the increase of aluminium content, the mechanical property of magnesium alloy improves gradually, is in the alloy at Mg-Li-Al, and aluminium content generally is lower than 5%.The ageing strengthening effect of the Mg-Li alloy of Zn is obvious, and is not obvious to the plasticity raising of alloy.But the adding of Zn increases alloy density, for the content that keeps low density Zn should not be excessive.Rare earth element has the cleaning action of degasification, removal of impurities in melting magnesium alloy process, can improve alloy flowability, formability and thinning microstructure effect.RE and Mg, Al, Zn etc. form Heat stability is good, and compound between refractory metal can produce dispersion-strengthened action.Y density minimum in the heavy rare earths, the lightweight of favourable alloy, but the also effect of refinement alloy branch crystal tissue, raising plasticity of Y.Light rare earths Nd not only has the effect of refined crystalline strengthening and solution strengthening in magnesium alloy, also have the effect of dispersion-strengthened.
Literature search to correlative study is found, people (Journal of Rare Earths such as Wang Mingxing, 2007,25, P233-237) carry out finding behind the alloying with Y and the AM50 magnesium alloy of Ce, the a small amount of Rare Earth Y of compound interpolation and Ce in AM50 can obtain than single adding Y or higher room temperature and the mechanical behavior under high temperature of Ce.But the effect of rare earth element composite toughening is not illustrated in its research, less than this effect not being made an appraisal and proving yet.
Summary of the invention
The object of the present invention is to provide a kind of cost low, intensity height, the high tough magnesium lithium alloy of the as cast condition that plasticity is good.The present invention also aims to provide a kind of simple to operate, be conducive to the preparation method of the high tough magnesium lithium alloy of as cast condition of large-scale promotion application.
The object of the present invention is achieved like this:
The weight percent of the high tough magnesium lithium alloy of as cast condition of the present invention consists of: Li:3-6%, Al:1-4%, Zn:1-3%, Y:1.2-2.0%, Nd:0.8-2.0%, surplus is Mg and impurity element.
Described Y adds in the magnesium melt with the form of Mg-Y master alloy, and described Nd is that the form with the Mg-Nd master alloy joins in the magnesium melt.
The preparation method of the high tough magnesium lithium alloy of as cast condition of the present invention is: with commercially pure Mg, commercially pure Li, commercially pure Al, commercially pure Zn, Mg-Y master alloy and Mg-Nd master alloy are raw material, weight percent according to component in the product consists of Li:3-6%, Al:1-4%, Zn:1-3%, Y:1.2-2.0%, Nd:0.8-2.0%, surplus is that the ratio of Mg and impurity element is mixed raw material, use the melting in argon shield of vacuum electromagnetic induction melting furnace, adopt the mode that increases power gradually to heat in the fusion process, be cast at last in the metal die, obtain cast alloy; The cast alloy ingot casting that melting obtains is incubated 30h down at 300 ℃ and carries out the homogenizing processing in vacuum furnace.
Compound interpolation Y and two kinds of rare earth elements of Nd in the high tough magnesium lithium alloy of as cast condition of the present invention, their solid solution strengthening effects in Mg can be better than independent interpolation, and are favourable to the raising of alloy strength.On the other hand because Rare Earth Y and Nd element, with the Mg element in the difference aspect atomic radius and the electronegativity of element, cause the interaction intensity between two kinds of rare earth elements and the Mg to change along with the change of Y and Nd element ratio.And after rare earth element y and Nd added with the ratio of 1.2:0.8, the Y in the alloy, Nd and Mg inter-atomic bond energy strengthened, and the bonding force when cloud density strengthens between the structure cell also strengthens thereupon, and the intensity of alloy also just increases.
The total amount of rare earth element is lower, be the characteristics in order to guarantee that the Mg-Li alloy density is little on the one hand, also be to consider to guarantee that all there is the effect of certain solution strengthening in two kinds of rare earth elements at alloy, also will take into account simultaneously and form kind, quantity and the distribution of Al-RE compound in the alloy to the influence of alloy strength on the other hand.
Magnesium lithium alloy of the present invention, the tensile strength under its room temperature is: 215Mpa-255Mpa; Unit elongation is: 12%-17%.
Lithium content is lower in the high-strength magnesium lithium alloy of as cast condition of the present invention, the low-cost characteristics of magnesium lithium alloy have been guaranteed, the Y that adds, Nd also are two kinds of more common rare earth elements, still can strengthen the intensity (apparently higher than other as-cast magnesium alloy intensity of equal lithium content) of as cast condition magnesium lithium alloy under the less situation of their weight percentages in alloy significantly.In addition, this alloy lithium content is lower, and the rotproofness of alloy and thermostability also show well.The present invention has guaranteed the low density of alloy at the cost that reduces exploitation high-strong toughness magnesium lithium alloy simultaneously, can effectively strengthen magnesium lithium alloy intensity and improve alloy plasticity.
