  • Sb in the amount ranging from 0.05 to 0.20 % by weight may be replaced with Sr in an amount ranging from 0.005 to 0.020 % by weight.
  • a method of producing a die casting product according to the present invention comprises forming the aluminum alloy into a die casting by high vacuum die casting to obtain the die casting product.
  • the obtained die casting product is preferably subjected to a solution treatment at a temperature of not lower than 530 °C for a time of not longer than 1 hr., and thereafter subjected to an aging treatment.
  • the die casting product according to the present invention is preferably a vehicle body part of an automotive vehicle, such as a so-called A pillar, a so-called B pillar, a so-called C pillar, a roof, a joint of a space frame or an installation section of a suspension, or a suspension part of an automotive vehicle such as a suspension arm, a sub-frame, a link part of a suspension or an engine cradle.
  • the A pillar is, for example, a pillar located between the window glass of a front windshield and a front door in a sedan-type passenger car.
  • the B pillar is, for example, a pillar located between the window glass of a front door and the window glass of a rear door in the sedan-type passenger car.
  • the C pillar is, for example, a pillar located between the window glass of the rear door and a rear window glass in the sedan-type passenger car.
  • the space frame is a frame structure which is constituted by connecting pipes or the like and usually used in a vehicle body of aluminum.
  • composition of the aluminum alloy according to the present invention and reasons for determining conditions of treatments and the like along with effects obtained by the compositions and the conditions.
  • Si is an element effective for improving the flowability of molten metal during die casting. If the content of Si is less than 10 % by weight, the effect is little. If the amount of Si exceeds 12 % by weight, the crystallization amount of eutectic Si increases or the primary crystal Si crystallizes thereby lowering the elongation and toughness in a high strain rate region such as during vehicle collision. Accordingly, the Si content is within the range of from 10 to 12 % by weight.
  • Mg is an element contributable for improving the strength by crystallization of Mg 2 Si during the aging treatment upon coexistence of Si. If the content of Mg is less than 0.15 % by weight, the effect of improving the strength is little. If the content of Mg exceeds 0.5 % by weight, the crystallization amount of Mg 2 Si increases thereby lowering the elongation and toughness. Consequently, the Mg content is set within the range of from 0.15 to 0.5 by weight.
  • Mn is an element contributable for improving the strength by forming fine intermetallic compound upon coexistence of Fe and Si. Additionally, Mn is an element contributable for preventing burning of a product to a die during die casting. If the content of Mn is less than 0.5 % by weight, the sufficient effect cannot be obtained. If the content of Mn exceeds 1.0 % by weight, coarse Al-Mn-Fe-Si-based intermetallic compounds crystallize thereby lowering the elongation (particularly, elongation in the high strain rate region). Consequently, the Mn content is set within the range of from 0.5 to 1.0 % by weight.
  • Fe is an element for preventing burning of the product to the die during die casting. If the content of Fe exceeds 0.15 % by weight, the crystallization amount of needle-like Fe-based intermetallic compound increases thereby lowering the elongation and toughness. Consequently, the Fe content is set at a value of not more than 0.15 % by weight.
  • Ti and B are elements effective for improving the mechanical properties of aluminum casting because TiB 2 formed upon addition of Ti and B serves as a heterogeneous nuclear of aluminum solid solution thereby fining the primary crystal ⁇ (Al)-phase.
  • composite addition of Ti and B provides no effect for fining the primary crystal ⁇ -phase, and that addition of a large amount of only B fines the primary crystal ⁇ phase thereby improving the mechanical properties of the alloy.
  • Ti seems to be an impurity element for impeding fining of the primary crystal ⁇ -phase, and therefore the content of Ti is set within a range of not more than 0.1 % by weight.
  • B is the element for improving the mechanical properties of the alloy by fining the primary crystal ⁇ phase, in which the content of B is set within a range of from 0.05 to 0.02 % by weight because the effect is little if the B content is less than 0.05.
  • the effect of fining the primary crystal ⁇ -phase upon addition of B will be discussed in detail with reference to Examples after.
  • Sb and Sr are elements contributable for improving the elongation and toughness by fining eutectic Si particle crystallized in Al-Si based die casting. If the contents of Sb and Sr are respectively less than 0.05 and less than 0.005 % by weight, the effects are little. If the contents of Sb and Sr respectively exceed 0.20 and 0.020 % by weight, intermetallic compound of Al is formed thereby lowering the elongation and toughness. Consequently, the contents of Sb and Sr are respectively set within the range of from 0.05 to 0.20 % by weight and the range of from 0.005 to 0.020 % by weight. It has become apparent in the alloy of the present invention that Sb is larger in effect than Sr.
  • Solution treatment time not longer than 1 hour
  • the solution treatment is a very effective measure.
  • the solution treatment is carried out at a temperature exceeding 530 °C and a time exceeding 1 hour, spheroidization of eutectic Si progresses while coarsening the eutectic Si.
  • the solution treatment is carried out at a temperature lower than 530 °C, it is difficult to accomplish both the fining and granulating the eutectic Si particle. Consequently, the solution treatment temperature is set at a value not lower than 530 °C, and the solution treatment time is set at a value not longer than 1 hour.
  • Aluminum alloys of Examples 1 to 3 and Comparative Examples 1 to 3 and raw materials for the aluminum alloys had respectively compositions shown in Table 1.
  • the Comparative Examples 1 and 2 corresponded to the "365 alloy" according to Aluminum Association Standard. Items Chemical composition (wt.%) Si Mg Mn Fe Ti Sb Sr B Al Example 1 10.7 0.24 0.73 0.04 0.001 0.10 - 0.009 Balance 2 10.9 0.27 0.72 0.05 0.0009 0.10 - 0.005 Balance 3 11.0 0.26 0.68 0.05 0.001 - 0.010 0.010 Balance Comparative Example 1 10.5 0.25 0.67 0.07 0.10 - 0.009 - Balance 2 10.4 0.27 0.70 0.06 0.11 - 0.011 0.002 Balance 3 10.6 0.25 0.71 0.04 0.15 0.09 - 0.006 Balance

  • the specimen was subjected to a dynamic tensile test at a strain rate of about 1000/s by using a so-called One-Bar Method high speed tensile tester as illustrated in Fig. 4.
  • the dynamic tensile test was conducted as follows: With reference to Fig. 4, the specimen 10 as shown in Fig. 3 was disposed between an output rod 12 and an impact block 14. The output shaft 12 was fixed at its one end. The specimen 10 was connected to the impact block 14 at a position A and connected to the other end of the output rod 12 at a position B. A hummer 16 was impacted against the impact block 14 at a rate or velocity of V 0 (t). At this time, a displacement rate or velocity V(t) at the position A was measured by an optical displacement meter (not shown), while a strain was measured by the strain gauge 18 attached to the output rod 12.
  • the thus determined nominal stress corresponds to a tensile strength (MPa).
  • ⁇ (t) was determined according to the following equation: where U A (t) is the displacement at the position A; U B (t) is the displacement at the position B; L is the distance of the specimen between the positions A and B; and V(t) is the speed of the impact block.
  • Each aluminum alloy of Examples and Comparative Example shown in Table 3 was produced upon melting at 750 °C, thus preparing molten metal of the aluminum alloy.
  • the aluminum alloy molten metal was subjected to a bubbling treatment with argon gas for the purpose of removal of inclusions and degasfication.
  • the molten metal of aluminum alloy was cast into a wedge-shaped specimen as shown in Figs. 5A to 5C by using a gravity casting, in which the temperature of the molten metal was 700 °C during casting.
