Abstract

The invention provides a Mg Li -Samarium alloy and a method for preparing the same through fusion electrolysis. The method uses MgCl2+LiCl+KCl+KF as an electrolyte system in an electrolytic furnace, then adds anhydrous Sm2O3 powders to heat up to a melting temperature of 680 DEG C or anhydrous SmCl3 powders to heat up to a melting temperature of 630 DEG C, using metal molybdenum (Mo) as a cathode and graphite as an anode at an electrolysis temperature of between 630 and 810 DEG C, and adopts a sinking cathode method, in which a cathodic current density is 6.4 to16.0A / cm<2>,an anodic current density is 0.5A / cm<2> and a cell voltage is 5.1-8.4V, so as to deposit a Mg-Li-Sm alloy nearby the cathode in a fused-salt electrolysis cell after electrolyzing for 40 to 120 minutes. The method does not use metallic magnesium, metal lithium, or metallic samarium, but uses metal compound as raw materials to directly prepare the Mg-Li-Sm alloy through the fusion electrolysis method, thereby having the advantages of greatly shortening production flow and reducing the energy consumption and production cost due to the simple process with low temperature electrolysis.

Description

(1) Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an alloy, specifically a magnesium-lithium-samarium alloy. The invention also relates to a preparation method of the magnesium lithium-samarium alloy. (2) Background technology [0002] Magnesium alloys have excellent properties such as low specific gravity, high specific strength, easy processing and recycling, as well as good damping and shock absorption and electromagnetic shielding properties, and are widely used in the automotive and aerospace industries. Among magnesium alloys, Mg-Li alloy is currently the lightest alloy, and the density of its binary alloy is only 1.3-1.59g / cm 3 , but its specific strength is much higher than that of aluminum alloy. The addition of Li to Mg not only reduces its density, but also greatly improves its processing performance, so it has attracted the attention of researchers and industries, and has been applied in the aerospace field. In addition to the characteristics of gene...
