Embodiment
Below, based on accompanying drawing, the mode for implementing optimum of the present invention is described.In addition, those skilled in the art are by changing the present invention recorded in claim/revise, easily expect other embodiments, these change/revise and are contained in the scope of this claim, the following description is the example of the mode of optimum of the present invention, does not limit the scope of its claim.
Copper alloy of the present invention comprises Ni:3.0 ~ 29.5 quality %, Al:0.5 ~ 7.0 quality %, Si:0.1 ~ 1.5 quality %, the copper alloy of the FCC structure that remainder is made up of Cu and inevitable impurity, in the parent phase of above-mentioned copper alloy, with below median size 100nm, utilize the Ni comprising Si 3al separates out L1 2γ ' the phase of structure.Such as utilize the arrangement architecture of electron diffraction picture can confirm above-mentioned L1 2structure.
Fig. 1 is the crystalline structure L1 that upside represents based on the precipitate of electron diffraction 2, and downside represents the photo of the transmission electron microscope of the state of precipitate.
In addition, this photo is the composition of Ni:12.3 quality %-Al:1.0 quality %-Si:0.3 quality %-Cu, implements solution treatment: the 500 DEG C of thermal treatments of 6 hours of 900 DEG C of 10 minutes-cold working 30%-ageing treatment.
As shown in Figure 1, in electron diffraction, there is the ordered phase of diffraction surfaces 110 for object.That is, γ ' is as intermetallic compound, be the atom be positioned on limit is Al and Si, the atom being positioned at the center of area be Ni by the FCC structure of ordering.
In addition, after carry out describe, but, known, in the photo of the downside of Fig. 1, L1 2the γ ' of structure separates out mutually imperceptibly.
These have the copper of the parent phase of FCC structure and have L1 2the γ ' of structure is FCC structure mutually, and therefore consistency is good, contributes to the raising of intensity, and by making γ ' separate out mutually, the solute element concentration of parent phase reduces, and also contributes to the raising of electric conductivity.
Copper alloy of the present invention is the copper alloy always keeping FCC structure.FCC structure is the structure that metallic element is the most closely piled up, and the parent phase alloy as high strength & high electric-conduction is suitable.Therefore, there is the copper of FCC structure, its excellent in workability, can easily be made into object shape.
Copper alloy of the present invention in order to meet high strength and high conductivity, and needs to comprise Ni:3.0 ~ 29.5 quality %, Al:0.5 ~ 7.0 quality %, Si:0.1 ~ 1.5 quality %.
Ni and Al makes in the Cu of parent phase, separates out Ni 3the intermetallic compound of Al, and form γ ' phase.And then Al and Si, coordinates with Ni and forms Ni 3(Al, Si) intermetallic compound, therefore, altogether, to both Al and Si needs be the amount coordinated with this, and, not Ni 3al, Ni 3the independent of Si is, but at L1 2among type, while the limit of FCC structure mixes existence, form a Ni 3(Al, Si) intermetallic compound.
In copper alloy of the present invention, there is L1 2the γ ' of structure as intermetallic compound, be the atom be positioned on limit be Al and Si, be positioned at the atom of the center of area be Ni by the FCC structure of ordering.
These have the copper of the parent phase of FCC structure and have L1 2the γ ' of structure is FCC structure mutually, and therefore, consistency is good, contributes to the raising of intensity, and, by making γ ' separate out mutually, the solute element concentration of parent phase being reduced, also contributing to improving electric conductivity.
And then, if be described in detail, then L1 2the γ ' of structure belongs to GCP (Geometricallyclosepacking mutually, geometry is tightly packed) phase, due to its close-packed structure, there is ductility, and then, because consistency is high, so, become γ+γ ' tissue, γ ' as micro organization in this γ+γ ' tissue separates out mutually, thereby, it is possible to the copper alloy that the processibility obtaining having toughness is high.
This γ ' is separate out imperceptibly with spherical in the γ phase of main body at the copper as parent phase.Because γ ' is spherical mutually, so can not stress concentration be there is in γ ' phase with the interface between γ phase, and the copper alloy that the processibility that can obtain having toughness is high.
And then, by the median size of γ ' phase being controlled, for less, intensity to be improved further.By making the median size of γ ' phase little, the anchoring of dislocation point carrying out movement increases, and can obtain high tensile strength.
And then γ ' is intermetallic compound mutually, and the hardness of himself is higher, and tensile strength is also higher.Therefore, by hinder dislocation γ ' mutually in movement, can make contributions to the hardness of copper alloy, tensile strength.
In addition, generally, the solute element concentration of solid solution in copper is higher, then specific conductivity more reduces, but compared with the solid solution condition that γ is single-phase, make by heat-treating at low temperatures γ ' separate out mutually, thus the solute element concentration of parent phase is reduced, therefore, the precipitation of γ ' phase also contributes to the raising of electric conductivity.In addition, for the electric conductivity of γ ' phase, compared with pure Cu, its electric conductivity is low, therefore, correspondingly makes electronics move reduction with the ratio of this γ ' shared volume mutually, but, by making the area fraction of γ ' phase appropriate, high electric conductivity can be maintained.
Therefore, when making copper alloy, do not damage the ductility such as cold-workability significantly as having, and comparatively large and improve the second-phase of the effect of specific conductivity to the contribution of the mechanical characteristics such as hardness, tensile strength, and γ ' is applicable mutually.At this moment, the area fraction of preferred γ ' phase is 5 ~ 40%.
This area fraction can be obtained by the area of each metallographic comparing certain cross section of copper alloy.In addition, usually, for area fraction and volume fraction, if will based on two solids of Cavaglieri (Cavalieri) principle, with the area equation of otch when cutting with certain parallel plane plane, then two three-dimensional volumes be equal.Therefore, regard this area fraction as volume fraction also to have no relations.
In addition, metalloscope, electron microscope (SEM, TEM), EPMA (x-ray analysis equipment) etc. can be utilized to measure area fraction.
In addition, preferably the median size of this γ ' phase is below 100nm.Although the smaller the better, due to based on heat treated alligatoring, by actual precipitation size control finer than 1nm be difficult, if at more than 1nm and at below 100nm, sufficient intensity can obtained.
Electron microscope can be utilized to carry out structure observation, therefrom measured the diameter of multiple γ ' phase by image analysis, and it is averaged, thus obtain the median size of γ ' phase.
At this moment, due to added Ni, Al, Si, Ni is separated out sometimes 3ni beyond the γ ' phase of the intermetallic compound of Al 2(Al, Si), NiAl, Ni 5si 2deng intermetallic compound.
But, with Ni 3(Al, Si) compares, Ni 2the amount that (Al, Si) separates out is few, and the impact brought the mechanical properties of copper alloy, electrical properties is little.
Separate out the intermetallic compound of the β phase represented by NiAl.This β phase is the B2 structure of BCC ordered structure, and the compositing range carrying out separating out is narrow, even if separate out, with Ni 3(Al, Si) compares, and its amount is also few, and the impact brought the mechanical properties of copper alloy, electrical properties is also less.
In addition, Ni is separated out sometimes 5si 2intermetallic compound.With Ni 3(Al, Si) compares, this Ni 5si 2the amount separated out is also few, and the impact brought the mechanical properties of copper alloy, electrical properties is little.
But, due to these Ni 3the γ ' of (Al, Si) mutually beyond intermetallic compound separate out respectively a lot, thus impact is brought on the mechanical properties of copper alloy, electrical properties, but, also can not more than Ni 3(Al, Si) bring impact.But, on the precipitate that these are whole basis altogether, obtain copper alloy of the present invention.
Si has the effect of the solute element concentration reduced in matrix, has the volume fraction of increase γ ' phase and provides the effect of electric conductivity.Therefore, because γ ' is Ni mutually 3the intermetallic compound of (Al, Si), thus, with Ni 3the monomer of Al compares, and intensity, electric conductivity are excellent.For the amount ratio of Al and Si, preferably, in the scope of Al/Si=1 ~ 5.This is because, if Al/Si ratio is less than 1, then except γ ' phase, also separate out other compounds reduction of ductility, electric conductivity being brought to impact, if be greater than 5, then the volume fraction of γ ' phase is insufficient, and the reduction of the solute element concentration in matrix is also insufficient, can not bring the raising of intensity and electric conductivity fully.
Therefore, by being set as the scope of Al:0.5 ~ 7.0 quality %, Si:0.1 ~ 1.5 quality %, and γ ' is separated out mutually, thus the compositing area of high strength & high electric-conduction and excellent in workability can be obtained.
In addition, copper alloy of the present invention is the compositing range comprising Ni:3.0 ~ 14.0 quality %, Al:0.5 ~ 4.0 quality %, Si:0.1 ~ 1.5 quality %, and electric conductivity is more than 8.5%IACS.
By being set as this compositing range, the γ ' of below 100nm is separated out mutually, thus electric conductivity can be made to be more than 8.5%IACS.
Because electric conductivity is more than 8.5%IACS, thus, as the copper alloy with high conductivity, the lead frame of electronics etc., junctor, terminal component etc. can be applicable to.
In addition, copper alloy of the present invention by being set as this compositing range, and makes the γ ' of below 100nm separate out mutually, thus cold-workability can be made further to be 10 ~ 95%.
For cold-workability, when being in the rolling that temperature 20 DEG C is implemented, utilize and do not carry out annealing and the decrement that can carry out the maximum ga(u)ge of roll forming defines crack-free, when wire drawing, utilize and do not carry out annealing and the maximum relative reduction in area that can carry out wire drawing defines crack-free.
The Ni of γ ' phase 3(Al, Si) intermetallic compound processibility compared with pure Cu is low, thus cannot with this Ni 3shared by (Al, Si) intermetallic compound, the ratio of volume measures increase working modulus accordingly.
Therefore, by being set to the compositing range comprising Ni:3.0 ~ 14.0 quality %, Al:0.5 ~ 4.0 quality %, Si:0.1 ~ 1.5 quality %, can the amount of precipitation of control γ ' phase, maintain electric conductivity higher constant, and make cold-workability be 10 ~ 95%.
If cold-workability is less than 10%, then there is the problem that can not make the material with object shape.If cold-workability is more than 95%, then there is the problem that the burden of equipment is large.Therefore, preferred cold-workability is the scope of 10 ~ 95%, further preferably, is that 20 ~ 90% meetings are better.
By making cold-workability be 10 ~ 95%, thus as having the copper alloy of high strength, be applicable to the lead frame of electronics etc., junctor, terminal component etc.
And then, Ni and Al in copper alloy of the present invention, the addition of Si, at the Ni represented by Al equivalent (quality %)=(Al quality %+1.19Si quality %) and Ni quality % in Al isometric(al) drawing, be positioned at the region A enclosed by (Al:2.0 quality %, Ni:3.0 quality %), (Al:4.0 quality %, Ni:9.5 quality %), (Al:1.5 quality %, Ni:14.0 quality %), (Al:0.5 quality %, Ni:5.0 quality %) these four points.
Copper alloy of the present invention by being positioned at the scope of this region A and the volume fraction making γ ' separate out mutually is 5 ~ 20%, thus can obtain high electric conductivity and high cold-workability.
In the scope of this region A, the electric conductivity of roughly 10 ~ 25%IACS can be obtained, in addition, the cold-workability of 10 ~ 95% can be obtained, therefore, as contactor material, even if to be touched, situation about rubbing is more, also can reduce wear.
Therefore, as the copper alloy with high electric conductivity and high cold-workability, the lead frame of electronics etc., junctor, terminal component etc. can be applicable to.
And then, in copper alloy of the present invention, comprise Ni:9.5 ~ 29.5 quality %, Al:1.5 ~ 7.0 quality %, Si:0.1 ~ 1.5 quality %, and Vickers' hardness is in the scope of 220 ~ 450Hv.
Owing to adding a large amount of Ni, improve volume, area that γ ' is shared mutually, thus can Vickers' hardness be improved.
In this case, the volume fraction separated out mutually by making γ ' is 20 ~ 40%, can make contributions to the intensity represented by the Vickers' hardness of copper.
As described above, preferably the median size of γ ' phase is at this moment below 100nm.Although the smaller the better, actual precipitation is difficult to carry out completely equably, if more than 1nm and below 100nm, then can obtain sufficient intensity, be more preferably below 30nm.
In addition, for the electric conductivity of copper alloy of the present invention under this compositing range, the electric conductivity of roughly 7 ~ 15%IACS can be obtained, therefore, by having high Vickers' hardness simultaneously, even if be applied to the lead frame, junctor, terminal component etc. of electronics etc., wearing and tearing also can be made few, weather resistance is good, resistance to long-time use.
In addition, in copper alloy of the present invention, at the Ni represented by Al equivalent (quality %)=(Al quality %+1.19Si quality %) and Ni quality % in Al isometric(al) drawing, be positioned at the region B enclosed by (Al:4.0 quality %, Ni:9.5 quality %), (Al:7.0 quality %, Ni:16.0 quality %), (Al:2.5 quality %, Ni:29.5 quality %), (Al:1.5 quality %, Ni:14.0 quality %) these four points.
Copper alloy of the present invention by making to be positioned at the scope of this region B and the volume fraction making γ ' separate out mutually is 25 ~ 40%, thus can obtain the high intensity that represented by Vickers' hardness further.This is because γ ' is intermetallic compound mutually, highly very high reason.But, if the area ratio of γ ' phase increases, then there is electric conductivity and reduce such shortcoming.
Therefore, by being positioned at the scope of this region B, thus while obtaining high electric conductivity, high Vickers' hardness can be obtained in the lump.
Thereby, it is possible to be widely used in the lead frame, junctor, terminal component etc. of electronics etc.
In addition, copper alloy of the present invention also comprises one or more the element selected from the group be made up of Co, Ti, Sn, Cr, Fe, Zr, Mg, Zn of 0.01 ~ 5.0 quality % with total amount, as Addition ofelements.
Co, Ti, Cr and Zr make γ ' stablize mutually, and promote to separate out, so contribute to the raising of intensity, in addition, also have the effect of the solute element concentration reduced in Cu, therefore also contribute to the raising of electric conductivity.

In addition, in the manufacture method of copper alloy of the present invention, carry out melting mixing integratedly and after casting, by hot-work such as forge hots, and as required by the cold working such as cold rolling, cold drawn, be shaped to the shapes such as sheet material, wire rod, tubing.Then, with 700 ~ 1020 DEG C, the scope at 0.1 ~ 10 hour is heat-treated, and afterwards, with 400 ~ 650 DEG C, carries out ageing treatment the scope of 0.1 ~ 48 hour.
The manufacture method of copper alloy of the present invention comprises following operation: Ni:3.0 ~ 29.5 quality %, Al:0.5 ~ 7.0 quality %, Si:0.1 ~ 1.5 quality % and Cu are carried out melting mixing by (a) integratedly, and forms the operation of copper alloy sample material as ingot casting; By hot-work and undertaken by cold working as required shaping after, (b) carries out the operation of following solution treatment: by above-mentioned copper alloy sample material with the temperature range of 700 DEG C ~ 1020 DEG C, the scope at 0.1 ~ 10 hour is heat-treated; And (c) carries out the operation of following ageing treatment: by the copper alloy sample material after solution treatment, with the temperature range of 400 DEG C ~ 650 DEG C, the scope at 0.1 ~ 48 hour heats.
In the operation of the formation copper alloy sample material of (a), as the raw material of copper alloy, can further using total amount add 0.01 ~ 5.0 quality % from by one or more the element selected the group that Co, Ti, Sn, Cr, Fe, Zr, Mg, Zn are formed as Addition ofelements.And then, as the raw material of copper alloy, can also with total amount add 0.001 ~ 0.5 quality % from by one or more the element selected the group that C, P and B are formed.
For melting mixing, in order to prevent Al, Si from reducing due to oxidation, such as, use the reductors such as calcium boride, or use argon gas or nitrogen etc. to carry out foaming process, or carry out in a vacuum melting in vacuum vessel.As the method for carrying out melting, be not particularly limited, use the known devices such as high-frequency melting stove, be heated to the temperature of more than the melting point of copper alloy raw material.
In the operation of solution treatment of carrying out (b), to copper alloy sample material with the temperature range of 700 DEG C ~ 1020 DEG C, the scope at 0.1 ~ 10 hour is heat-treated.Thereby, it is possible to obtain added alloying element can not in the parent phase of Cu segregation and the sosoloid of as one man homogenizing.Heating means are not particularly limited, carry out according to known method.
In this solution treatment, by making Ni, Al, Si etc. disperse equably, thus can, by ageing treatment described later, the γ ' of the fine median size with below 100nm be separated out mutually.
In the operation of ageing treatment of carrying out (c), by copper alloy sample material, with 400 ~ 650 DEG C, carry out ageing treatment the scope of 0.1 ~ 48 hour.If lower than 400 DEG C, and/or less than 0.1 hour, then γ ' cannot be made to separate out mutually.If more than 650 DEG C and/or more than 48 hours, then γ ' grows up mutually, median size, more than 100nm, produces the problem that can not get desired electric conductivity and working modulus and so on.Therefore, in order to obtain desired electric conductivity and hardness, such ageing treatment is necessary prerequisite.
