The invention relates to an
anode oxidizable high-strength 6xxx series aluminum
alloy and a preparation method thereof. The aluminum
alloy comprises the following components of 0.7-1.5wt% of Mg, 0.2-0.5wt% of Si, 0.2-0.8wt% of Zn, 0.3-0.7wt% of Cu, 0.2-0.6wt% of Mn, 0.1-0.3wt% of Cr, 0.03-0.12% of Ti, less than or equal to 0. 13wt% of other
impurity elements, and the balance Al. The specific preparation method comprises the following steps that pure Al ingots, pure Mg ingots, pure Zn ingots, AlSi intermediate
alloy, AlCu intermediate alloy, AlZr intermediate alloy and AlMn intermediate alloy are taken as raw materials, and are put into a
smelting furnace in proportion, a melt is subjected to stirring, refining, purifying, degassing and slagging off and standing treatment, then
casting is conducted into cast ingots, then extruding is conducted into an aluminum alloy profile according to the
extrusion ratio of 15-30:1, and then
quenching, T6 heat treatment and
anodic oxidation treatmentare conducted. Compared with the prior art, the
anode oxidizable high-strength 6xxx series aluminum alloy and the preparation method thereof have the advantages that the Vickers
hardness of the 6xxx series alloy extruded profile prepared by the method is greater than 130 HV, the yield strength is larger than 350 Mpa, the elongation rate is larger than 8%, and the surface is uniform in color, and free of the defects such as spots and lines after being subjected to
anode oxidation.
