Abstract

The invention relates to die-casting and heat-resistant high zinc magnesium alloy with gadolinium content and preparation method thereof and is used in the metal material field. The alloy components and weight percentages thereof are that: Zinc: 6-10 percent, aluminum: 3-7percent, gadolinium: 0.2-2.0 percent, impurity element Fe is less than 0.005 percent, Cu is less than 0.015 percent, Ni is less than 0.002 percent and the rest is magnesium. Pure magnesium, pure zinc, pure aluminum and Mg-25percent Gd are preheated, and then the pure magnesium is put into a melting furnace with the protection of gas to be melted; the pure zinc and the pure aluminum are added immediately after magnesium ingot is thoroughly melted, and scum on the surface is skimmed after the pure zinc and the pure aluminum are thoroughly melted; the temperature rises continuously, Mg-25 percent Gd master alloy is added, and scum on the surface is skimmed after the master alloy is completely melted; melted mixture obtained is stirred, and then refined, stirred and led to be still after the furnace temperature is adjusted; alloy liquid obtained is die-cast after scum on the surface is skimmed and the temperature of the alloy liquid is adjusted down. The invention has low cost and high production efficiency, and improves mechanical properties of the alloy in room temperature and high temperature and creep properties of the alloy.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a magnesium alloy in the field of material technology and a preparation method thereof, in particular to a gadolinium-containing die-casting heat-resistant high-zinc-magnesium alloy obtained by adding gadolinium and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of my country's aerospace industry and automobile industry, the lightweight of spacecraft and automobiles has become an eternal pursuit. Magnesium alloys have become the focus of material workers because of their high specific strength, specific stiffness, and specific modulus of elasticity. However, due to the poor high-temperature creep resistance of existing magnesium alloys, they cannot be used to manufacture automotive transmission parts that require high-temperature creep performance, which greatly hinders the further application of magnesium alloys. For this reason, the research and development of heat-resistant magnesium ...
