Background
At present, most shells of weapons in water still adopt traditional metal materials. The U.S. shell of underwater weapons with high requirements on corrosion resistance and low requirements on strength adopts AA606l-T6 aluminum alloy, and the U.S. shell with high requirements on corrosion resistance and strength adopts AA7175-T73 aluminum alloy. Heavy underwater weapons with strong attack force are necessary weapons for killing and providing higher requirements for high strength, light weight, manufacturing technology and the like for aluminum alloy for large-depth pressure-bearing shells.
Lithium is the lightest metal element in the world. Lithium is added to metallic aluminum as an alloying element to form an aluminum-lithium alloy. After the addition of lithium, the specific gravity of the alloy can be reduced and the stiffness increased while still maintaining high strength, good corrosion and fatigue resistance and suitable ductility. Because of these characteristics, this new alloy has received a great deal of attention from the aerospace and marine industries. Due to the advantages of the alloy, many scientists are attracted to research the alloy, and the development of the aluminum-lithium alloy is developed as if the aluminum-lithium alloy is rapidly developed as a bamboo shoot in the spring after rain; the aluminum-lithium alloy has the characteristics of low density, high elastic modulus and high specific strength, and also has a plurality of excellent properties such as good fatigue property, excellent corrosion resistance, excellent plastic forming property, good weldability and the like. Therefore, the aluminum lithium alloy becomes the most potential metal structural material of the present weaponry.
The existing process for producing the aluminum-lithium alloy is to cast and solidify a prepared liquid alloy melt to form an aluminum-lithium alloy ingot blank, then apply one or more deformations such as extrusion, rolling, forging, ring rolling and the like to the ingot blank to enable the ingot blank to become a raw material or a component which can be used in aerospace, and the production links (including die casting, semi-continuous casting and the like) which usually relate to the solidification process are not the final process for producing parts, but due to the tissue inheritance phenomenon of metal materials, the material tissue formed in the solidification process almost accompanies the whole life cycle of the parts, once the inhomogeneity and coarse tissue morphology of chemical components occur in the solidification production link, the subsequent processing is difficult to effectively improve, and the performance of the parts is finally influenced;
