Key material.
Due to zr element is oxidizable, chromium it is extremely difficult fusing and be dissolved in copper liquid so that chrome zirconium copper alloy is generally required true
Melting under empty or inert atmosphere.However, people are difficult to manufacture due to the limitation for being limited by power and induction coil Insulation Problems
High-power, high-capacity vacuum smelting furnace or inert atmosphere smelting furnace so that so far both at home and abroad can only generally manufacture weight 500kg with
Under chromium-zirconium-copper material.
Summary of the invention
In order to overcome the defects of the prior art described above, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a kind of large-tonnage chrome zirconium copper alloys
The molten alloy of the constituent element containing chromium is placed in the lower part of vacuum or atmosphere furnace, is used water by manufacturing method using vertical partitioning melting in furnace
The high temperature that cold induction coil induction heating obtains makes it melt and be dissolved in copper liquid, and the melting capacity in this region is 25-
300kg, it can be achieved that heating temperature range be 0-2200 DEG C;The melting of constituent element containing zirconium and copper constituent element is placed in vacuum or atmosphere furnace
Top, melt zirconium and copper constituent element with resistance heating manner, the melting capacity in this region is greater than 5000kg, heating temperature
Section is 0-1400 DEG C;The two is isolated with porous foam chromium material, and the inside aperture of porous foam chromium material is 0.1-5mm, is made
Fusing and dissolved chromium-rich copper melts because specific gravity be lower than copper melts due to pass through porous foam chromium material floating be dissolved in upper copper melt
In body, the unfused and undissolved chromium particle in copper melts is isolated and is held in the high-temperature region of lower part by porous foam chromium material
Until fusing and dissolution are completed.
To achieve the goals above, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is that:
A kind of manufacturing method of large-tonnage chrome zirconium copper alloy, chrome zirconium copper alloy melt in vacuum or inert gas shielding environment
Using vertical partitioning method of smelting in a kind of furnace when refining: top low temperature large capacity warm area uses resistance heating mode, heating temperature
Interval range is 0-1400 DEG C, and melting capacity is greater than 5000kg, realizes fine copper or the melting containing zirconium copper alloy;Lower part high temperature corpusculum
Accumulated temperature area use induction heating mode, melting capacity be 25-300kg, realize 0-2200 DEG C of temperature range within the scope of pure chromium or
Melting containing chrome copper;Crucible is fixed with porous foam chromium material close to crucible bottom and high/low temperature melt is isolated in furnace,
The inside aperture of porous foam chromium material is 0.1-5mm, while keeping the free-flowing of two warm area liquid up and down;All material
Material in crucible toppled over after the completion of fusing be cast into ingot casting or using above draw, under draw, be frozen into institute by the way of ingot casting is drawn in side
Need the casting of shape.
The chrome zirconium copper alloy is to account for total amount 0.2- containing the zirconium for accounting for total amount 0.01-0.6wt% in Copper substrate
The chromium of 3wt%.
Vacuum ranges is 5-3000Pa when using vacuum melting mode;When using inert gas shielding environment, air pressure model
It encloses for 0.05-0.2MPa.
The design principle of this technology method be will melt be divided into upper and lower Two Areas, be respectively adopted different heating methods,
The melting zone of two different temperatures in the inner melt of formation is isolated by porous foam chromium material.Wherein, top is sent out with resistance-type
Hot body heating, solution are difficult to obtain high-power, high-capacity vacuum melting because being limited by power and induction coil Insulation Problems
The problem of furnace or inert atmosphere smelting furnace;It is heated in one zonule of lower portion of furnace body using induction type, the height realized by it
Mildly quickly chromium is melted and is dissolved by heating, and solution traditional resistor heating method is difficult to obtain continuous high temperature and heating speed is slow
Slowly, the problem of can not melting chromium constituent element and be dissolved in copper liquid body, the chromium constituent element after fusing are dissolved in copper liquid and inverse gravity direction
It floats and enters the low temperature molten alloyed copper of upper area;Two Areas is isolated by porous foam chromium material, is avoided in the melting zone of lower part
Be not completely melt or be not dissolved completely in large scale chromium particle in copper liquid and float enter in furnace body low-temperature space.
