Description

3D printing high-strength Al-Cr-Sc alloy
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of design of additive manufacturing 3D printing materials, and particularly relates to a high-strength Al-Cr-Sc alloy for 3D printing.
Background
In recent years, additive manufacturing (commonly known as 3D printing, two processes of specially-made laser selective melting and laser melting deposition in the patent) aluminum alloy is widely regarded as important in the fields of aerospace, rail transit and the like. This is because: first, the conventional processing methods of aluminum alloys are mainly casting, plastic working and welding, and it is difficult to form a member having a complicated shape. With the development of light weight of aerospace and rail transit, aluminum alloy parts with complex topological structure design are difficult to process by adopting a traditional method and need to be processed by adopting a 3D printing technology; secondly, the aluminum alloy of the traditional casting and plastic processing is difficult to prepare the aluminum alloy with the ultrafine grain structure, and the 3D printing can realize the manufacturing of the ultrafine grain aluminum alloy. Thirdly, 3D printing itself is not only a forming technique, but also new materials can be created, as 3D printing is an extreme non-equilibrium preparation means, the solid solubility of solute elements in aluminum alloy can be greatly diffused, thereby preparing or manufacturing metastable aluminum alloy materials.
However, 3D printing of aluminum alloy does not simply use traditional aluminum alloy as raw material to prepare powder by gas atomization, and high-quality printing can be realized. At present, 3D printing of traditional aluminum alloy brands faces the following problems: (1) at present, only 4 series of cast AlSi alloys in the traditional aluminum alloy are suitable for 3D printing, the formability is also good, most of 3D printing aluminum alloys are a series of aluminum-silicon alloys, but the mechanical properties are not high (the tensile is less than 400MPa, and the elongation is less than 6.5%). (2) 3D printing of gas atomized powder of traditional aluminum alloy such as 2-7 series aluminum alloy is easy to generate hot cracks and has poor mechanical property. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an aluminum alloy suitable for a special 3D printing without the concept of the conventional aluminum alloy grade of 2-7 series to some extent.

The invention relates to a design basis of the element components of metal powder for 3D printing of high-strength aluminum-chromium alloy, wherein the design basis comprises the following steps:
a) function of Cr element: under the condition of 3D printing and rapid cooling, a supersaturated solid solution is formed, and the solid solution content of Cr element in an aluminum alloy matrix is increased, so that the tensile strength and the corrosion resistance of the aluminum alloy are enhanced; meanwhile, the Fe-Mn alloy forms an intermetallic compound with Fe and Mn elements, and crystal grain growth in the printing process is hindered.
