The invention also relates to a corrosion-resistant aviation aluminum alloy plate prepared by any one of the embodiments.
The invention has the beneficial effects that:
(1) the contents and the proportions of Mg, Si and Cu elements in the aluminum alloy are reasonably optimized, and higher strength is obtained with lower alloy content. Specifically, the hardness of the aluminum alloy plate can be improved by the copper content of 3.0-4.0%, the strength, oxidation resistance and corrosion resistance of the aluminum alloy plate can be improved by the manganese content of 1.0-1.5% and the silicon content of 0.8-1.5%, the titanium is beneficial to grain refinement, and the prepared aluminum-lithium alloy has high specific strength, high plasticity, high toughness and excellent corrosion resistance by adding a small amount of rare noble metal ruthenium with stronger melt purification capacity, so that the comprehensive mechanical property of the alloy is greatly improved. The addition of ruthenium can improve the superplasticity, thermal deformation, corrosion resistance, weldability and the like of common aluminum alloy, and can reduce the harm of impurities. The addition of metallic lithium element to the aluminum alloy reduces the alloy density and greatly improves the elastic modulus. The density of the alloy is reduced by 3 percent and the elastic modulus can be improved by 5 to 6 percent when 1 percent of metal lithium is added, and the alloy can be ensured to have obvious hardening effect after quenching and artificial aging.
(2) The Ag and the Mg can simultaneously exert a synergistic effect to generate the optimal strengthening effect, so that the aging rate of the aluminum-lithium alloy is greatly accelerated, and the Ag can also improve the welding performance of the aluminum alloy. Mg has larger solid solubility in Al, and the addition of Mg can reduce the content of Li in AlSolid solubility. It can increase the volume fraction of the' phase at a certain Li content. In addition, it can form T (Al)2LiMg) stable phase, inhibiting the formation of phases. The addition of Mg can produce a solid solution strengthening effect, strengthen the precipitation-free zone and reduce the harmful effect of the precipitation-free zone. When Cu and Mg are added into the aluminum lithium alloy at the same time, S' (Al) can be formed2CuMg) phase. The S 'phase is preferentially unevenly precipitated near the defects such as dislocation and the like, and the S' phase can effectively prevent coplanar slippage and has a certain positive effect on improving the strength and the toughness of the alloy. If the Mg content is too high, the T phase is preferentially precipitated in the grain boundary, and brittleness is increased. When the Mg content is less than 0.5%, S' phase is less, the alloy strength is reduced, and the proper Mg content has a certain good effect on improving the high-temperature performance of the aluminum-lithium alloy.
(3) Zr is added into the aluminum-lithium alloy, and the Zr and the Al can form metastable phase beta' (Al)3Zr) in the form of a rod having LI2The structure has a lattice constant a of 0.41 nm. Zr atoms have large bonding energy (0.24eV) with vacancies, are easily bonded with the vacancies during the solidification of the alloy, and cause the reduction of the vacancies bonded with lithium atoms, thereby preventing the precipitation of ' phase, but the ' phase can form nucleation growth at a beta ' phase interface to form a beta '/' composite structure phase, thereby increasing the mismatching degree with a matrix, and the hardness of the beta '/' phase is large, so that the dislocation is difficult to cut through, the coplanar slippage can be effectively inhibited, and the plasticity of the alloy is improved. Sc and Zr form extremely fine ternary coherent phase Al3(Sc1-xZrx). Typically, the Sc content is between 0.07% and 0.3%, the Zr content is between 0.07% and 0.15%, the ratio of the two preferably remaining at about 1:1, expressed as Al3(Sc,Zr)。Al3(Sc, Zr) is similar to the 'structure, and can become the' core of non-uniform nucleation in the aging process to form Al3Li/Al3(Sc, Zr) composite particles.
(4) The aluminum alloy melt is dispersed by vibration of the ultrasonic vibration system in the casting process, so that the grain structure is more uniform, the tensile strength and the yield strength are improved, and the corrosion resistance is also improved. The test result shows that the aluminum alloy melt after the ultrasonic vibration is applied can achieve better degassing effect, and the distribution condition of the pinholes in the solidified structure morphology is obviously better than that of the aluminum alloy melt without the ultrasonic vibration. Applying ultrasonic vibrationsAfter the action, a fine equiaxed solidification structure is generated. When ultrasonic vibration is applied at the same temperature, the average size of the obtained crystal grains is remarkably reduced. Numerous dispersed Al exist in the alloy solidification structure formed after ultrasonic vibration is applied3Ti particles, the coagulated structure at this time appeared to be significantly refined with respect to the non-ultrasonic vibration.
(5) The strength and the fracture toughness of the aluminum alloy are further improved by adopting a three-level homogenization heat treatment process; adopting deformation aging process to make Mg2Si phase is dispersed and separated out evenly in crystal boundary crystal, and the strength and the corrosion resistance of the aluminum alloy are further improved.
(5) About 0.22 percent of transition element Ti is added into the Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy, and the alloy is analyzed by primary aging, secondary aging and tertiary aging processes, an Optical Microscope (OM), a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), a micro-control universal testing machine, a microhardness tester and the like to test the cast structure and phase precipitation distribution form of the alloy, mechanical properties after aging, fracture morphology and the like, and the result shows that the addition of the Ti element can refine grains, improve dendrite segregation and strengthen the alloy. The mechanical property of the alloy is improved most obviously by the three-stage aging.
(6) Through solution treatment, the shear precipitation phase' phase redissolution and the grain boundary precipitation phase redissolution are promoted, and the corrosion performance and the toughness of the aluminum-lithium alloy can be improved. The aluminum alloy plate prepared by the invention has the Vickers hardness of 175-190 Hv, the yield strength of 520-562MPa, the tensile strength of 605-656 MPa and the elongation of 9.4-12%, has excellent overall performance, and is particularly suitable for aluminum alloy plates in the field of aerospace.
The invention effectively improves the welding processing performance, high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance through the design of the aluminum alloy components.
