The invention provides a low-resistance
temperature coefficient precision resistance
alloy and a preparation method thereof. The
alloy comprises the following components: less than or equal to 0.04% of C, 1.30%-1.50% of Si, 0.30%-0.55% of Mn, less than or equal to 0.010% of S, less than or equal to 0.010% of P, 19.70%-20.50% of Cr, 3.40%-3.70% of Al, 0.60%-1.0% of Fe and the balance of Ni and inevitable impurities. The
alloy has a
low resistance temperature coefficient and is widely applied to the fields of
aviation,
aerospace and high-end instruments and meters. The manufacturing method comprises the steps that
smelting is conducted in a
vacuum induction furnace, a steel
ingot is obtained through
casting and vacuum consumable remelting, and then heating,
forging and heat treatment are conducted on the steel
ingot. In the
smelting process, the alloy components are ensured to be accurate by controlling the pressure in the furnace, the
oxygen and
nitrogen content and the
smelting time. And during
forging, the temperature is slowly increased to 1050-1060 DEG C, heat preservation is conducted for 2-3 hours, and finally
forging is conducted to the needed form. And finally, carrying out heat treatment to improve the
mechanical property and the resistance
temperature coefficient stability of the material. The manufacturing method can effectively improve the alloy performance, is suitable for production of precision
resistor elements, and has a wide market prospect.
