Description

Composite field treatment and high-pressure extrusion forming method for iron-containing aluminum alloy
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of metal material solidification control, and particularly relates to an ultrasonic/electromagnetic composite field treatment and high-pressure extrusion forming method for iron-containing aluminum alloy.
Background
The pollutants discharged in the regeneration process of the aluminum scrap are only 10% generated in the production of the aluminum scrap, and the energy consumption is only 5% of the production of the aluminum scrap, so that the recycling of the aluminum scrap plays an important role in the sustainable development of the global aluminum industry.
The iron element is the most harmful impurity in the secondary aluminum and aluminum alloy. Because the solid solubility of iron in aluminum is very low, once the solid solubility limit is exceeded, iron is combined with aluminum and other alloy elements to form a coarse needle-shaped or sheet-shaped iron-rich phase, and the mechanical properties of the alloy at room temperature are seriously damaged. Therefore, the removal of impurity element iron becomes an international problem which troubles the development of the recycled aluminum industry. Although the needle-shaped rich iron is unfavorable to the room temperature performance of the aluminum alloy, the high temperature performance of the aluminum alloy can be obviously improved due to the high melting point and good thermal stability of the needle-shaped rich iron. If the iron-rich phase in the aluminum alloy with high iron content can be refined, the mechanical properties of the alloy at room temperature and high temperature can be obviously improved. Therefore, the potential performance advantage of the aluminum alloy with high iron content can be fully utilized, and the method has great significance for expanding the application of the iron-containing secondary aluminum raw material.
The existing methods for refining the iron-rich phase in the aluminum alloy mainly comprise methods of jet deposition, addition of neutralizing elements, high-temperature overheating of melt, ultrasonic treatment and the like, but all of the methods have defects.
The spray deposition process is not only complicated and costly, but also has a certain amount of porosity in the microstructure of the alloy spray deposited billet due to gas entrapment and solidification shrinkage, and the porosity of the spray deposited aluminum alloy is usually between 1% and 10% (Lavernia E J, aquirs J D, Srivatsan T S. Rapid identification processing with particulate Materials Reviews,1992,37: 1-44.).
The method of adding the neutralizing elements generally adds the neutralizing elements such as Mn, Cr, Co and the like, and the neutralizing elements and Fe are easy to form in the aluminum alloy meltCoarse primary α -Al with large specific gravity15(Fe,Mn,Cr)3Si2The phases are deposited at the bottom of the melting crucible (Jorstad J l. unrestrained sludg. die Casting enginer, 1986,12:30-36.) and these sediments are easily carried into the Casting and jeopardize the machinability of the Casting. In addition, the method for adding the neutralizing element cannot reduce the iron content of the aluminum alloy, but adds new elements, which increases the difficulty for recycling the aluminum material.
The main disadvantages of the high-temperature overheating process of the melt are high energy consumption, and the high temperature of the melt can cause serious gas suction and oxidation of the molten metal and increase the burning loss of alloy elements.
Ultrasonic treatment of iron-containing aluminum alloy melt is a relatively new green pollution-free technology with the characteristics of simple process and low cost, however, when ultrasonic treatment is carried out on high-iron-content aluminum alloy melt for a certain time and then solidification is carried out under a near-equilibrium condition, iron-rich phases in the obtained alloy structure are still relatively coarse, and a part of long needle-like iron-rich phases cannot be eliminated, for example, Zhang Yubo et Al (cement Jine J. Chuan, Gao Yuan, Lu Yiping, Li tingju. Effects of ultrasonic treatment on the formation of iron-containing intermetallic compounds Al-12% Si-2% Fe alloys, 2013,42: 120) are subjected to ultrasonic treatment for a certain time, and then the ultrasonic treatment of the Al-12Si-2Fe alloy melt is carried out under a condition of ultrasonic cavitation at a certain time, and the ultrasonic treatment is found to be a large amount of needle-like phases of 24-863, 42: 120-Si-125 Fe alloy melt, and the ultrasonic treatment is carried out at a high-slow-melting point of the ultrasonic treatment of the alloy melt, and the ultrasonic treatment of the alloy melt, the alloy melt is found to be subjected to a high-coarse phase attenuation effect of about 24-2-Al-2-Al-2-Al-2-Al-alloy.
In summary, ultrasonic treatment is a good treatment method, but if the coarse iron-rich phase is to be refined uniformly and thoroughly, the alloy melt needs to be treated by combining other methods during and after ultrasonic treatment.

The technical scheme adopted by the invention for solving the technical problems is as follows:
a composite field treatment and high-pressure extrusion forming method of iron-containing aluminum alloy comprises the following steps: pouring the iron-containing aluminum alloy melt into a container, placing the container in the magnetic field range of an electromagnetic stirring device, immersing an ultrasonic generator into the iron-containing aluminum alloy melt when the temperature of the iron-containing aluminum alloy melt is reduced to a preset temperature, simultaneously starting the electromagnetic stirring device and the ultrasonic generator to carry out composite field treatment, pouring the iron-containing aluminum alloy melt subjected to ultrasonic and electromagnetic stirring into an extruder die to carry out high-pressure extrusion forming, and thus obtaining the aluminum alloy containing fine iron-rich phase structures.
According to the technical scheme, the manufacturing steps of the iron-containing aluminum alloy melt are as follows: heating the iron-containing aluminum alloy to fully melt the iron-containing aluminum alloy, then introducing high-purity argon into the iron-containing aluminum alloy melt to carry out rotary degassing, and slagging off and standing to obtain the iron-containing aluminum alloy melt.
According to the technical scheme, the thermocouple is further provided and is used for monitoring the temperature of the iron-containing aluminum alloy melt in real time.
According to the technical scheme, the processing time of the composite field of the electromagnetic stirring device and the ultrasonic generator is 30-60 s.
According to the technical scheme, the vibration frequency of the ultrasonic generator is 20 kHz-60 kHz, and the power is 1.2 kW-2.8 kW.
According to the technical scheme, the frequency of the medium-frequency magnetic field of the electromagnetic stirring device is 50 KHz-85 KHz, and the stirring volume power is 5W/cm3~20W/cm3
According to the technical scheme, the iron-containing aluminum alloy comprises the following chemical components in percentage by mass: 0 to 18 percent of Si, 0.3 to 5 percent of Fe, 1 to 3.5 percent of Cu and the balance of Al.
According to the technical scheme, the extrusion force of the high-pressure extrusion molding is 0.1GPa-1GPa, and the temperature of an extruder die is 200 ℃ to 300 ℃.
The present invention produces the following advantageous effects.
Firstly, aiming at the problems that the effective action range of an ultrasonic field is limited and the sound flow stirring effect is weak, the invention provides a method for increasing the convection inside a melt by adopting an electromagnetic field to solve the problems. Specifically, the invention provides a composite field processing mode of coupling an electromagnetic field on the basis of an ultrasonic field, wherein a melt is arranged in the range of the electromagnetic field, and the melt is stirred in a non-contact manner by utilizing electromagnetic stirring to promote melt convection, so that the ultrasonic cavitation effect can act on the whole melt under the forced convection generated by the electromagnetic field, and the good and bad complementarity of two physical external fields of the ultrasonic field and the electromagnetic field is realized.
When the metal is solidified under high pressure (0.1GPa-1GPa), the solute diffusion coefficient is reduced, the liquidus temperature of most alloys is increased, and the solid solubility of solute elements is improved, so that the texture structure and the performance which cannot be obtained under normal pressure can be obtained by preparing common alloy materials under the high-pressure condition.
Experiments show that after the Al-10.6Si-0.78Fe alloy is subjected to ultrasonic treatment at the temperature above the liquidus line, die-casting forming is carried out, the long needle-shaped β -Fe phase is refined into polygonal or spherical particles with the size smaller than 15 mu m, the tensile strength and the elongation of the alloy are obviously improved, after the Al-12Si-2Fe alloy melt is subjected to ultrasonic treatment for a certain time, the needle-shaped β -Fe phase is completely converted into the α -Fe phase with the size of about 10 mu m, the needle-shaped β -Fe phase is obviously refined by adopting the two processes, however, the filling speed of liquid metal in the die-casting process is extremely high, gas in a cavity is difficult to remove, and the liquid metal can be remained in the casting in the form of air holes, so that the common die-casting cannot be subjected to heat treatment, the chilling action of the water-cooled copper die is large, and the self has no deformability and air permeability, so that the defects of cold shut, deformation, cracks and the like easily occur.
Theoretical analysis shows that the pressure can effectively increase the nucleation rate in the solidification process and reduce the crystal growth rate, the heat exchange coefficient between the alloy and a casting mold is correspondingly increased along with the increase of the solidification pressure, the cooling rate of the alloy is increased, and the grain size can be reduced by solidification under the pressure, normal pressure (below 100 MPa) extrusion casting can refine the iron-rich phase in the aluminum alloy with low iron content and reduce the harmful effect of iron on the room temperature performance of the alloy, compared with the conventional gravity metal type casting, the extrusion casting enables the acicular iron-rich phase with the length of about 70 mu m in the Al-7Si-0.3Mg alloy with the content of 1 percent Fe to be converted into Chinese character shape or block shape, the average length is reduced to about 27 mu m, but no part of the long acicular iron-rich phase exists in the solidification structure of the normal pressure extrusion casting high-iron aluminum alloy, and through the research on the structure and the performance of the extrusion casting Al-8Fe-1.4V-8Si alloy, the main iron-rich phase in the Chinese character shape α -Al-8V-8 Si7(Fe,V)3Si phase and long needle-like β -Al18Fe11A Si phase. Experimental research shows that when metal is solidified under high pressure (0.1 GPa-several GPa), the solute diffusion coefficient is reduced, the liquidus temperature of most alloys is increased, and the solid solubility of solute elements is improved, so that the common alloy material is prepared under the high pressure conditionThe texture and properties that are not obtained at normal pressure are obtained.
In conclusion, in order to uniformly and thoroughly refine the thick needle sheet-shaped iron-rich phase in the aluminum alloy, the alloy melt can be treated by adopting an ultrasonic and electromagnetic composite field, and then a new method of high-pressure extrusion forming is adopted, so that the large-scale industrial production and recycling of iron-containing aluminum alloy parts are realized.
The invention can obviously refine the thick needle sheet iron-rich phase and also refine the α -Al crystal grain and eutectic structure of the matrix, compared with the single ultrasonic treatment, electromagnetic stirring and solidification structure under normal pressure, the invention can obtain better crystal grain refining effect and obviously improve the mechanical property of the alloy, and the invention does not need to add neutralizing elements (such as Mn, Cr and the like) to assist in refining the crystal grains, has no pollution to the alloy components and is convenient for recycling, in addition, the invention adopts ultrasonic vibration and coreless induction electromagnetic stirring composite treatment equipment, has small volume, simple and convenient operation and easy popularization and application.
