In recent years, mainly in the field of aircraft, the demand for FRP (fiber reinforced composite material) having high strength and high elastic modulus is increasing. Initially, composite materials in which fibers such as carbon were impregnated with an epoxy thermosetting resin were developed, but these FRPs have the drawback of being inferior in heat resistance and impact resistance. Recently, in place of thermosetting resin, a fiber-reinforced composite material in which fibers are impregnated with a thermoplastic resin has been developed, and it is rapidly expanding into composite material products related to aerospace. PEEK (polyetheretherketone), PAK (polyaryleneketone), etc. are often used as the thermoplastic resin, but since they are all cured at room temperature, room temperature molding such as pressing cannot be performed. Therefore, these FR
P needs to be molded in a heat-softened state, cooled to room temperature and cured. More specifically, it is generally carried out by sandwiching it between thermoplastic resins in which fibers are impregnated with a material having excellent warm moldability such as aluminum and performing warm pressing or diaphragm molding (pressure molding).

It is empirically known that heating at a melting point of about K) is required, which is much higher than the molding temperature of a resin such as PEEK. Actually, the superplastic aluminum alloy was tried to be used for the diaphragm molding of the thermoplastic resin-based composite material, but it was confirmed that there were the following problems. That is, although superplastic aluminum alloys are generally excellent in formability at high temperatures above 450 ° C, they are inferior in formability in the temperature range of diaphragm formation of thermoplastic resin-based composite materials over 200 to 450 ° C, and are optimal. Since the strain rate under the conditions is slow, it takes a long time to mold in the case of production on a factory scale, resulting in poor productivity. Al-6% Cu-0.4% Zr (SUPRAL) is the only aluminum alloy that has been used as an aluminum alloy for the diaphragm forming process of thermoplastic resin-based composite materials. Poor performance and high cost,
Furthermore, since it contains a high concentration of Cu, it is difficult to recycle even though it is a disposable application. The present invention was born in the background of the above circumstances,
To provide an aluminum alloy having excellent formability (especially elongation) in the temperature range of 200 ° C to 450 ° C in a warm diaphragm forming process of a thermoplastic resin composite material by a simple production method. The purpose is.

First, the reasons for limiting the component composition of the present invention are shown below. Mg: Mg improves warm workability by promoting work softening or dynamic recrystallization during warm working. If it is less than 2%, the strength is insufficient and the warm workability is insufficient, and if it exceeds 6%, the hot rolling property / cold rolling property is deteriorated, and the production becomes difficult. Therefore, the amount of Mg is set to 2 to 6%. Be; Add Be to prevent Mg oxidation during melting and to prevent galling during diaphragm molding. When Be is less than 0.0001%, this effect does not exist, and when Be exceeds 0.01%, the effect is saturated. Ti, B; Ti is added alone or at the same time as B for refining the ingot crystal grains. However, if Ti is less than 0.001%, this effect does not exist, and if it exceeds 0.15%, primary TiAl 3 particles are crystallized. Further, when B is added, if B is less than 0.0001%, there is no effect, and if it exceeds 0.05%, TiB 2 particles are generated. Cu, Zn; Cu, Zn improves the strength, increases the stacking fault energy, and strengthens the dislocation cell structure during processing. If Cu and Zn are less than 0.05% and 0.2%, respectively, this effect is insufficient.If Cu and Zn exceed 2.0% and 2.5%, respectively, corrosion resistance decreases and Cu and Zn precipitate at grain boundaries, causing a warm elongation. Is reduced. Impurities Fe, Si, Mn, Cr, Zr, V, etc .; If Fe, Si, Mn, Cr, Zr, V, and other impurities are contained in large amounts, coarse intermetallic compounds are likely to be generated during casting. The formed intermetallic compounds cannot be removed by the subsequent thermomechanical treatment. These intermetallic compounds are
If it is 10 μm or more, it becomes a starting point of breakage during diaphragm molding, and the diaphragm moldability is remarkably reduced. Therefore
Fe 0.2% or less, Si 0.2% or less, Mn 0.05% or less, Cr 0.0%
5% or less, Zr is 0.05% or less, and V is 0.05% or less. The total amount of other impurities is 0.1% or less. Next, the reasons for limiting the metal composition are shown below. Particle diameter of intermetallic compound particles based on impurities; When the intermetallic compound has a particle size of 10 μm or more, it becomes a starting point of fracture during diaphragm molding, and the diaphragm moldability is remarkably deteriorated. Therefore, the intermetallic compound must be 10 μm or less at the maximum during the diaphragm forming process. Recrystallized grain shape during diaphragm forming process: In the temperature range of diaphragm forming of thermoplastic resin composite material that spans 200 to 450 ° C, "intragranular deformation" and "(dynamic and static) recrystallization repeat" Deform. If the recrystallized grain shape during diaphragm forming is flat, "intra-grain deformation"
In (3), local stress concentration is likely to cause fracture, and in "(dynamic and static) recrystallization", non-uniform recrystallization occurs, so that local stress concentration is likely to cause fracture. Therefore, in the present invention, as a measure of the flatness of the recrystallized grain shape during the diaphragm forming process, (average grain size in rolling direction / average grain size in plate thickness direction) is taken in a cross section parallel to the rolling direction. , Requires that this value be less than or equal to 1.5. The particle size and recrystallized particle shape of the intermetallic compound particles should be satisfied when the diaphragm is formed. Therefore, the value measured after the residual heat of the diaphragm forming process (for example, holding at 400 ° C. for 5 minutes) immediately before the actual diaphragm forming process may satisfy the above. However, this is usually impossible except in the case of performing simulation heating, and when recrystallized in the final annealing of the plate manufacturing process, there is little change in the structure between the final annealing and the diaphragm forming process. Therefore, for the sake of convenience, it is only necessary that the measured value at the stage of the final annealed plate satisfies the above. Finally, the manufacturing method will be described. Casting: As a casting method, semi-continuous casting (DC casting) is generally used. Ingot heating: The ingot is heated at 450 ° C to 580 ° C for 0.5 to 48 hours. This heating may be performed in one step or may be performed in multiple steps in combination with soaking. When performing in multiple stages, the condition at the highest temperature among them should satisfy this heat treatment condition. If heating below this condition, the hot rolling start temperature will be 400
It becomes difficult to bring the temperature to ℃, and there is no homogenizing effect. Heating above this condition may lead to coarsening of the intermetallic compound, impairing diaphragm formability, and possibly causing eutectic melting. Hot rolling start temperature: Hot rolling property deteriorates below 400 ° C, and exceeds 530 ° C
Due to the high temperature embrittlement of Mg, ear cracks are likely to occur during hot rolling. Therefore, it should be 400-530 ℃. Cold reduction rate before final recrystallization treatment: If it is less than 15%, recrystallization does not occur during final recrystallization treatment or non-uniform recrystallization occurs, resulting in deterioration of diaphragm formability. Therefore, it should be 15% or more. In the case of batch annealing, 250 ° C to 450 ° C for 0.5 to 24 hours, and in the case of continuous annealing, 300 ° C to 580 ° C without holding or for 5 minutes or less, hot rolling and cold rolling and / or Alternatively, the effect of the present invention will not be impaired even if intermediate annealing is appropriately performed during cold rolling. What is required is a cold reduction ratio of 15% or more before the final recrystallization treatment. Final recrystallization treatment: Generally, final annealing is performed to obtain a recrystallized structure. However, the diaphragm molding is the softening temperature of the thermoplastic resin,
That is, since the process is carried out at 200 ° C. to 450 ° C., the material in which the thermoplastic resin is sandwiched between the aluminum materials is recrystallized by being set in the heated molding machine and being held until the material reaches a predetermined temperature. Alternatively, if another preheating furnace is used for preheating and the temperature of this preheating is 250 ° C. or higher and recrystallization occurs during preheating, it is not necessary to make a recrystallization structure by final annealing in the plate manufacturing process. Absent. The conditions may be the temperature and the holding time for recrystallization, and when annealing, continuous annealing or batch annealing may be used. In the case of batch annealing, it is generally performed at 250 ° C to 400 ° C for 0.5 hour or longer, and in the case of continuous annealing, it is kept at 350 ° C to 550 ° C for no holding or at most 180 seconds. In the above, the casting method has been described by using the example of using semi-continuous casting (DC casting), but continuous casting (CC casting) may also be used. In this case, since hot rolling is unnecessary, it is not necessary to heat the continuous casting plate instead of heating the ingot. Summarizing the above, the method for producing an aluminum alloy plate of the present invention has the following viations. However,
Steps in parentheses are optional steps. Semi-continuous casting → Ingot heating → Hot rolling → (Intermediate annealing) → Cold rolling → (Intermediate annealing) → Cold rolling → (Final annealing) Continuous casting → (Continuous cast plate heating) → Cold rolling → (Intermediate casting Annealing) →
Cold rolling → (final annealing)
