The invention discloses an aluminum
alloy monofilament for an overhead transmission conductor and a preparation method of the aluminum
alloy monofilament, and belongs to the technical field of
electrical conductor materials, and the preparation method comprises the steps that ZrO2
powder, MgO
powder and MoO3
powder are mixed and then treated to obtain ZrMgMo3O12 powder; industrial pure aluminum ingots are added into a
smelting furnace, Al-Si and Al-Ce intermediate alloys are added after pure aluminum is completely melted, ZrMgMo3O12 powder obtained after stirring is pressed into the bottom of a solution, stirring is conducted after standing, and an aluminum
alloy solution is obtained;
argon is blown into the obtained aluminum alloy solution, and drossing is carried out after heat preservation and standing; the aluminum alloy solution is poured into a preheated
metal mold, and aluminum ingots are formed through
casting; the obtained aluminum
ingot is rolled, and an aluminum alloy round rod is obtained; the obtained aluminum alloy round rod is subjected to multi-pass drawing, and a monofilament is obtained; and the obtained monofilament is subjected to heat preservation for 1-4 h at the temperature of 100-140 DEG C and then
air cooling, and the aluminum alloy monofilament The
conductivity of the prepared low-thermal-expansion aluminum alloy monofilament is larger than or equal to 55% IACS (20 DEG C), the tensile strength is larger than or equal to 160 MPa, the
ductility is larger than or equal to 2.0%, and the
thermal expansion coefficient is about 20 * 10 <-6 > / DEG C.
