た分散強化合金が挙げられるが、製造方法の詳MBは不
明である。Dispersion-strengthened alloys, in which ceramic particles are dispersed in metal, are widely used as functional materials. Dispersion-strengthened alloys are often produced by a sintering method in which metal powder and particles to be dispersed are mixed and then subjected to compaction, sintering, extrusion or HIP treatment, and machining. Since the process is complicated and requires a large amount of equipment investment, and the metal powder is also expensive, manufacturing by melting method has recently been considered. The melting method is a method of casting by adding particles to molten metal, and can be further divided into the portex method, injection method, composite casting method, injection method, etc., but there are many points that are not technically established. Commercially available dispersion-strengthened alloys include, for example, Dural Co., Ltd. (a subsidiary of Alcan Co., Ltd.) of the United States, which has a particle size of 1.
One example is a dispersion-strengthened alloy in which SiC particles of 0 to 20 μm are dispersed in aluminum, but the detailed MB of the manufacturing method is unknown.
前記溶製法では金属溶湯に粒子を添加する手段として、
金属溶湯を攪拌しながらキャリアーガスと共に粒子を吹
き付けるのが一般的である。In the melting method, as a means of adding particles to the molten metal,
It is common to spray particles together with a carrier gas while stirring the molten metal.
本出願人は特開昭62−116740号公報に記載され
た、非醸化雰四気中で溶融金属を攪拌しながら該溶融金
属の表面に、分散相としての微粒子を速度5m/sec
以上且つ温度800〜2.500℃で噴射すること全特
徴とする粒子分散強化合金の製造方法を提案した。The present applicant has proposed a method of dispersing fine particles as a dispersed phase onto the surface of molten metal at a speed of 5 m/sec while stirring the molten metal in a non-breeding atmosphere.
We have proposed a method for producing a particle dispersion strengthened alloy, which is characterized by the above-mentioned injection at a temperature of 800 to 2,500°C.
しかしながら、上記従来の溶製法は下記の如く多くの問
題点を有している。However, the conventional melting method described above has many problems as described below.
1)粒子が凝集し易い。即ち、粒子は微細なものほど凝
集する傾向が強く、金属溶湯内へ凝集体として入った場
合には攪拌程度では分離しないため均一に分散させるこ
とが困難である。このため粒子分散強化合金の引張強さ
、ヤング率などの特性値を十分に向上させることができ
ない。1) Particles tend to aggregate. That is, the finer the particles, the stronger their tendency to aggregate, and if they enter the molten metal as aggregates, they cannot be separated by stirring, making it difficult to disperse them uniformly. For this reason, it is not possible to sufficiently improve the properties such as tensile strength and Young's modulus of the particle dispersion strengthened alloy.
2)粒子が粗粉に限定される。即ち、微粒子はどキャリ
アーガスと共に飛散し易く、金属溶湯内へ混入すること
が困難であるため一般的に平均粒径10μ以上の粗い粒
子が使用される。2) Particles are limited to coarse powder. That is, coarse particles with an average particle diameter of 10 μm or more are generally used because fine particles tend to scatter together with the carrier gas and are difficult to mix into the molten metal.
このため、及び添加される粒子は硬質材からなるものが
多く採用されているため、得られる粒子分散強化合金の
被剛性が著しく悪い。For this reason, and because many of the particles added are made of hard materials, the resulting particle dispersion strengthened alloy has extremely poor rigidity.
例えば、旋盤切削においては高価なダイヤモンドコート
の工具を使用しなければ切削できない。For example, lathe cutting requires the use of expensive diamond-coated tools.
3)歩留りが悪い。即ち、添加すべき粒子のうちキャリ
アーガスの流れに沿って飛散するものが多く、溶湯内に
はあまり入シ込まず歩留りが悪く、特に微粒子はど悪い
。3) Poor yield. That is, many of the particles to be added scatter along the flow of the carrier gas, and do not penetrate into the molten metal very much, resulting in a poor yield, especially fine particles.
4)キャリアーガスが必要である。即ち、溶湯を酸化さ
せないようにN2ガスや人rガスなどの高価なガスを使
用する必要がある。4) Carrier gas is required. That is, it is necessary to use an expensive gas such as N2 gas or hydrogen gas to prevent the molten metal from oxidizing.
5)付帯設備が必要である。即ち、上記のように粒子が
キャリアーガスと共に飛散するため、粉塵作業となυ作
業環境が悪い。そのため、集塵機等の付帯設備が必要と
なる。5) Additional equipment is required. That is, as mentioned above, the particles are scattered together with the carrier gas, resulting in dusty work and a poor work environment. Therefore, ancillary equipment such as a dust collector is required.
本発明は上記従来技術における問題点を解決するための
ものであり、その目的とするところは平均粒径の小さな
粒子であっても凝集を生じさせることなく、金属中に均
一に分散させることができ、かつ容易に実施することが
できる粒子分散強化合金の製造方法を提供することにあ
る。The present invention is intended to solve the above-mentioned problems in the prior art, and its purpose is to uniformly disperse particles in metal without causing agglomeration even if the particles have a small average particle size. The object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing a particle dispersion strengthened alloy that can be carried out easily.
即ち本発明の粒子分散強化合金の製造方法は、金属中へ
分散相として添加すべき粒子と酸化性粉末と該粒子の分
散媒体としての気化性液体とを、予め溶融させた金属溶
湯に同時に添加又は噴射することを特徴とする。That is, the method for producing a particle dispersion strengthened alloy of the present invention involves simultaneously adding particles to be added as a dispersed phase to a metal, an oxidizing powder, and a vaporizable liquid as a dispersion medium for the particles to a molten metal that has been melted in advance. Or it is characterized by being injected.
粒子としては金属溶湯の温度より融点の高いセラミック
、金属等からなるものを使用することができる。粒子の
材質、大きさ、形状等は目的とする粒子分散強化合金の
要求特性に厄じて選択する。なお本文中の粒子の用語の
内にはウィスカーや短繊維などで同様に使用し得るもの
も含まれる。粒子は単一種類のものを使用してもよいし
、又は二種類以上組合せて使用してもよい。The particles may be made of ceramic, metal, or the like whose melting point is higher than the temperature of the molten metal. The material, size, shape, etc. of the particles are selected depending on the required characteristics of the target particle dispersion strengthened alloy. Note that the term "particles" in this text also includes whiskers, short fibers, etc. that can be used in the same manner. A single type of particles may be used, or a combination of two or more types may be used.
気化性液体としては金属溶湯の温度より沸点の低い液体
を使用することができる。例えば水などの不燃性で分解
しにくいものが好ましい。As the vaporizable liquid, a liquid having a boiling point lower than the temperature of the molten metal can be used. For example, it is preferable to use something that is nonflammable and difficult to decompose, such as water.
酸化性粉末としては金属溶湯又はその近傍の温度で急激
な酸化反応全件なうものを使用することができる。具体
的には例えばMg、Ti、Si。As the oxidizing powder, any powder that undergoes a rapid oxidation reaction at or near the temperature of molten metal can be used. Specifically, for example, Mg, Ti, and Si.
α、AIとFeOとの混合粉末等が有効である。なお、
酸化反応によって生じた酸化物が金属中に混入した場合
でもその特性を低下させないか、又は、酸化物が金属溶
湯中に混入し難く、スラッジなどとして容易に除去でき
るものがよい。A mixed powder of α, AI and FeO is effective. In addition,
It is preferable that even if the oxide produced by the oxidation reaction mixes into the metal, its properties will not be deteriorated, or that the oxide will not easily mix into the molten metal and can be easily removed as sludge or the like.
又、酸化性粉末は金属中に分散相として添加すべき粒子
と反応しないことが必要である。It is also necessary that the oxidizing powder does not react with the particles to be added as a dispersed phase in the metal.
粒子と酸化性粉末と気化性液体とは、予め全部を混合し
ておいてそれ金金属溶湯に加えてもよいし、又はその内
の二種の混合物を金属溶湯に加えている所に他の一糧を
加えてもよいし、又は全部を別々に(ただし同一箇所に
)金属溶湯に加えてもよい。The particles, oxidizing powder, and vaporizable liquid may be mixed together in advance and added to the molten gold metal, or a mixture of the two of them may be added to the molten metal in another place. One portion may be added, or all may be added separately (but in the same place) to the molten metal.
粒子に対する気化性液体の添加比率は、粒子重量に対し
て気化性液体が5wt 1以上であるのが好ましい。気
化性液体の添加比率が5wt%未満の場合には、液滴の
瞬間的気化における小爆発の力が粒子相互の凝集を解く
のに十分ではない。The ratio of the vaporizable liquid added to the particles is preferably 5 wt 1 or more of the vaporizable liquid to the particle weight. When the addition ratio of the vaporizable liquid is less than 5 wt %, the force of the small explosion during instantaneous vaporization of the droplets is not sufficient to disaggregate particles from each other.
粒子に対する酸化性粉末の添加比率は粒子重量に対して
酸化性粉末が5〜50wt%であるのが好ましい。5w
t%以下では十分な効果がない。The addition ratio of the oxidizing powder to the particles is preferably 5 to 50 wt% based on the weight of the particles. 5w
If it is less than t%, there is no sufficient effect.
又、50wt% 以上では多量に生成する酸化物による
不具合が生ずる。酸化性粉末の平均粒径は、粉末の種類
や金属溶湯の温度、種類等によって異なるが、平均粒径
があまり小さいと自然発火し、逆にあ19太きいと気化
性液体の爆発よりも遅れて酸化反応が起るため添加効果
がない。Moreover, if the content is more than 50 wt%, problems will occur due to the large amount of oxides produced. The average particle size of oxidizing powder varies depending on the type of powder, temperature of molten metal, type, etc., but if the average particle size is too small, it will spontaneously ignite, whereas if it is too large, it will explode later than the explosion of a vaporized liquid. Since an oxidation reaction occurs, the addition has no effect.
それ故、0.5〜10μm程度のものが実用上都合がよ
い。Therefore, a thickness of about 0.5 to 10 μm is practically convenient.
金属溶湯への気化性液体又はそれと粒子及び/又は酸化
性粉末との混合液の噴射速度は1四軸以上であるのが望
ましい。噴射速度がこれより遅い場合には、液滴は金属
溶湯面に到達する前に蒸発してしまうか、或XAは、蒸
気を出しながら溶湯表面に浮くだけであシ、酸化性粉末
による急激な酸化反応の発熱効果を加算しても粒子を金
属溶湯中に十分に分散させることができない。The injection speed of the vaporizable liquid or the mixture thereof with particles and/or oxidizing powder to the molten metal is preferably 14 axes or more. If the injection speed is slower than this, the droplets will evaporate before reaching the surface of the molten metal, or the XA will simply float on the surface of the molten metal while emitting steam, and the droplets will be rapidly destroyed by oxidizing powder. Even if the exothermic effect of the oxidation reaction is added, the particles cannot be sufficiently dispersed in the molten metal.
気化性液体又は前記混合液の金属溶湯への噴射形態は特
に限定されない。例えば容器内で攪拌されている金属溶
湯の表面若しくは内部に気化性液体若しくは混合液を噴
射してもよいし、又は金属溶湯を落下若しくは流下させ
ながらその表面若しくは内部に気化性液体若しくは混合
液を噴射してもよい。The form of injection of the vaporizable liquid or the liquid mixture into the molten metal is not particularly limited. For example, the vaporizable liquid or mixed liquid may be injected onto the surface or inside of the molten metal being stirred in a container, or the vaporizable liquid or mixed liquid may be sprayed onto the surface or inside of the molten metal while it is falling or flowing down. May be sprayed.
混合液は粒子及び/又は酸化性粉末と気化性液体以外に
、所望により空気などの気体を含んでいてもよい。The liquid mixture may contain a gas such as air, if desired, in addition to the particles and/or oxidizing powder and the vaporizable liquid.
強化すべき金属はアルミニウム又はその合金等の種々の
金属を使用することができる。Various metals such as aluminum or its alloys can be used as the metal to be reinforced.
金属中へ分散相として添加する粒子の重量は、4〜50
wt%が望ましい。これより少ない場合には粒子を添加
しても強化合金の特性値の向上が見られず、又、多い場
合には靭性が低下する。The weight of the particles added as a dispersed phase in the metal is 4 to 50
wt% is desirable. If the amount is less than this, no improvement in the properties of the reinforced alloy will be seen even if the particles are added, and if the amount is more than this, the toughness will decrease.
粒子と酸化性粉末と気化性液体とを金属溶湯に同時に添
加又は噴射することにより、溶湯中での気化性液体の急
激な体積膨張による爆発力を酸化性粉末の酸化反応によ
る発熱によって更に増強した爆発力で、粒子全金属溶湯
中に均一に分散させる。By simultaneously adding or injecting particles, oxidizing powder, and vaporizable liquid to molten metal, the explosive force caused by the rapid volume expansion of the vaporizable liquid in the molten metal is further enhanced by the heat generated by the oxidation reaction of the oxidizing powder. Explosive force makes the particles uniformly disperse throughout the molten metal.

効果があった。Example 1 In FIG. 1, an aluminum alloy (JIS 70
75 alloy) was melted to prepare molten metal 4. While stirring this molten metal 4 with a stirring blade 6 connected to a stirring device f5,
A mixed solution 9 of SiC particles 8 with an average particle diameter of 0.1 to 6 μm and water in a container 7 (concentration of SiC particles in water: 30 wt%)
) is sprayed onto the surface of the molten metal 4 by a spray gun 10 at a speed of 5.
I immediately sprayed it with C. At this time, the powder supply device t into the jet stream.
11 and 12 odor powders were supplied and sprayed onto the surface of the melt #40 along with a jet stream. The Mg powder 12 rapidly caused an oxidation reaction on the surface of the molten metal 4, and the heat of the reaction strengthened the explosive force due to the rapid volumetric expansion of water, which was effective in uniformly dispersing the particles 8 into the molten metal 4.

The results are shown in Figure 2. Uniform dispersibility was evaluated using a 5-level evaluation method (the larger the number, the better the uniform dispersibility). From FIG. 2, it can be seen that according to this method, the dispersibility of particles is significantly improved compared to the conventional method of Comparative Example 2 even when particles having an average particle diameter of several μm or less are used. Furthermore, it can be seen that this method has improved dispersibility, especially on the fine powder side, compared to the method of Example 1 in which no Mg powder is supplied.

The tensile strength of a particle dispersion strengthened alloy manufactured by adding 20 wt% of μm SiC particles is shown. In the conventional method, the particles agglomerate, so that only the tensile strength of the base metal can be obtained, but in this method, the particles are uniformly dispersed, so a high tensile strength can be obtained. Furthermore, according to this method, the tensile strength was improved even compared to a method in which Mg was not supplied.

境が良好となった。As mentioned above, the method for producing the particle dispersion strengthened alloy of the present invention includes:
The particles to be added as a dispersed phase into the metal, the oxidizing powder, and the vaporizable liquid as a dispersion medium for the particles are simultaneously added or injected into the molten metal that has been melted in advance, which improves the uniform dispersion of the particles in the reinforced alloy. As a result, the tensile strength and other properties of the reinforced alloy improved. In addition, the machinability of the reinforced alloy is improved because fine particles, which were difficult to use in conventional methods, can be used. For example, S with an average particle size of 0.3 μm
Aluminum alloys containing iC particles can be cut with ordinary carbide tools without using diamond-coated tools. Moreover, the yield of particles was improved. In other words, the yield when adding SiC particles with an average particle size of 0.3 μm to an aluminum alloy using the conventional method is 10 to 20 w.
t4, but with this method it was 80 to 9 Ow t. Furthermore, because additional equipment such as carrier gas and dust collectors are no longer required, manufacturing costs are lower and the working environment is better.
